The controls are a bit annoying and it moves way too slow
The controls are a bit annoying and it moves way too slow but this could work quite well with more work put into it. Good job!
I like how the game looks and everything, but it seems really unresponsive and I couldn't figure out what to do.
Good fun. As others have pointed out it is a bit slow, but that's a restriction from having to move in the dark; any faster and it'd be too hard.
Props for coding from scratch, +1 for using the center tag! =D
I always like vision/fog of war mechanics, very cleanly done!
It's a bit unresponsive and slow... Had some difficulty understanding how to advance in the game...
Great job for your first LD! How do I unlock the lower door? I put the light on the thing!
Liked the graphics. But I couldn't really get anywhere in the game...
@invaderJim That is a challenge.
For those that say it moves too slow, when you progress I think it is balanced at the right speed. For those with a lack of understanding that is part of the game.
I like the simple graphics and the interesting concept. It took me some time to understand how it works, even though you have all the necessary information in the screenshot.
Cool idea! Slowness of the character / gravity got a bit annoying after a while.
Nice game! That took quite a while until I found out what triggers the sensors. Now I feel stupid...
I think the main problem with the "slow" feeling of the controls is the lag between hitting the jump key and jumping. That should be instantaneous, but it seems like it waits until the sound is played. However, that was still good fun to play! Good job!
Nice concept! :D
I love the idea and it's something that I will eventually play through but the movement and jumps have to be tweaked. Good job though.
reminds me of a super retro version of Closure. I do agree with the others' slowness comments. you know what would be cool? if the webpage you put it on had a black background, that way you feel like a tiny guy in a massive world. just a thought. good first entry though.
Neat concept. Wasn't sure how to get around (beyond arrows). It would be nice to move faster.
