Nice concept, there is an atmoshpere. Somtimes the gaps are too big to jump over (or I missed a long jump control ?). Putting the controls in the game or in the description would be nice though. Good work anyway.

Even though at first the game felt far too challenging, I came to really like the idea of having to remember the location of a light switch and activate it in the dark. I like the visuals, and the music was pretty good too. The only problem I seemed to have with it were the controls - I felt the character had too much momentum (especially when in the air), and it made the movement feel less responsive... clunky almost. Regardless, I played this longer than I expected to - good job!
I played the linux version and things were very choppy... Not sure if that's what other people are experiencing... The lights turned off really fast and jumping was almost impossible. As far as what I assume the game was intended to be played as: Pretty nice take on the theme. Although I'm not entirely sure I would have been able to make some of those jumps even if things were running smoothly.
Nice, solid game. Having W/Up for activate was a bit weird, I instinctively hit that instead of jump a few times. It might be better to just activate the switch when the player touches it, since in this scheme you pretty much just want to be mashing the button all the time if you're in the dark.
Nice graphics ! But the game is very hard. Adding a glow on the switches when the light is off can hint about their location. It's already hard enough to remember where the pits are.
good overall effort!
Challenging game, even after I remembered that there is a double jump. Could score 7 points max in my tries. Loved the moody graphic.
levels are generated randomly? BTW nice atmosphere and visuals, there is a nice mood here! Maybe it is a little bit difficult but the controls are tight enough! ;)
Really cool. Some of the placement of the buttons could be better generated, but overall is a very great game!
Thanks @gilborn for pointing out that there was a double jump :P, I was getting stuck
Nice game, graphics and audio. I think it's too hard, though. Being able to guess where are the switches once you're in total dark could be useful. ;)
I liked the game, it's beautyfull, funny, and the controls are well calibrated, but I think it´s "procedurally" generated, right? so there are many times that the swich are in places that I can´t reach without fall. but all the game is good, congratulations.
Really cool idea and good execution. The visuals are very nice (especially the cute little eyes in the dark) and create a chilling mood. The gameplay is also highly enjoyable and quite nailbiting. The only thing that annoyed me are the controls, which are kinda floaty, especially while jumping, which caused me to die more often than necessary. Good job overall!
Very hard but enjoyable, overall nice entry
I think the difficulty could have been scaled a little bit so that it was easier at the start, like maybe just having the power bar drain a little slower. There's loads of potential for ramping up the challenge that could keep people playing a long time. I only managed to get to 9 switches, but it felt like an achievement. Nice game!
Wow that game is hard, haven't managed to activate more than 4 switches. Otherwise a solid entry, nice game.
