I like it. Might be a little difficult. Tough to make it to all the lanterns.

I enjoyed the gameplay, although I tried SPACE but couldn't figure out how to not-die.
The game is very fun at first, but suffers from a lack of artwork and balancing issues. The game has three levels, but the first one is near impossible to beat. The enemies show up too quickly too fast, to the point where you are just walking in circles. Overall, it is a very unique and entertaining game for a little while but gets old quickly. Still very good.
Running an installer to play a jam game is a little rough, creating a playable exe or something would be way better.
Anyhow, as for the game goes it took me a couple times through to figure out that pressing space next to the brown square collects energy and space next to the yellow squares gives them your collected energy. Some more instructions would be helpful.
It was definitely challenging, but part of that was that I wasn't sure what the win condition was.
All in all it's a decent idea and good implementation given the time constraints. Nice work!
Nice game, simple graphics and straight forward but challenging gameplay. I would have liked to have seen a greater variety of enemies though, and perhaps some different ways of taking them on.
The "running out of power" thing got pretty stressful: very good job on that. However, the game was really hard: I barely made it through night 0, and then died before midnight in night 1. It was very challenging. Good job.
