This is a GREAT game and you really nailed the theme! I'm impressed!! The only thing I'd add is more levels! And the floating circles don't seem to fit into the levels much. Perhaps more variety on enemies could help too. Still, really nice!

You've catched the idea so good! I got kinda addicted to the game haha. Good level design and please, consider adding more in the future!

I love the game! It's really short but i cant't stop playing. Please, add more levels!

I played during the jam and you really improved making levels, those makes you think and use some essay/error to solve them. Ignoring the lack of sprites, the color palette and the animations are very nice. Could use a walk animation for the player same as the enemies.

Great game overall, it would be nice if you make some more levels, I want to keep playing!

check out our LD40 game if wanna laugh your ss off. extremely close ideas :D

Really great game! Very fun to play and everything from visuals to music was pleasing! needed more levels though :p

I really like the minimalist look and the polish you put in the animation. It really help to make the game feel right. The concept is also straightforward and fun to play.

I think the ability to throw away the pickup after getting them would be nicer since you could correct your mistake without having to reload the level but also open new puzzle possibilities.

Great game, needs more levels (and more fun mechanics). Keep it up.

Holy fuck, that's one of the best games of the jam I've tested so far, probably the best ! I reeeeally like this kind of game, speedrunny like, optimlisation is everything... The sound is cool but could be better in terms of music variation. Graphics are great, and do a great job... You should DEFINITELY continue this game, there is a great potential ! (made me think of Thomas Was Alone) BIG GG !!! (our game does not appear on my profile, it's here : https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/the-darkest-light )

Fit the theme well!

ladybenko 2017-12-07 15:03

Thanks everyone for the feedback and the kind comments :blush:

Loved the game! Brilliant execution for LD40 theme! Gameplay felt smooth and sound was very fitting. Nice work :3

lunardust 2017-12-07 16:00

simple game but really fun!

wolfo 2017-12-08 23:48

Simple and fun, I loved it! Probably one of the best Compo I've tried so far.

Really nicely done, great job!

triastase 2017-12-09 01:08

I like it! The idea is simple, the graphics are simple, but because everything is so simple, you were able to polish everything to a degree of a flawless gameplay experience. With more time at hand you could probably make it better by adding a bigger variety, but this is a very good product for a weekend of work! :)

Cool game! Good job:)

Great puzzles, great platforming, solid sfx/music.

This is a fantastic entry.

Pros

- Great puzzles that weren't too brain melting - Jumping felt really good - Mechanic is solid - Quick reset loop - All of the components fit well together.

Cons

- Wish it had more levels - BGM was a little repetitive over time

Not much bad to say, it was a fun well-made entry.

Really well thought and designed game. The idea fits the theme perfectly and you have developed a very simple mechanic into a full and interesting game. Superb job. You could totally turn this into a full fledged game. Congratulations :)

I love it when I encounter a complete game. Everything about this is simple, but polished, from the "walk" cycle of the enemies, to the squishing as your character hits the ground after landing. The music fits too.

Excellent use of the theme.

Good puzzle, with a good progression, the minimalist aesthetic choice can work well with the project. Personally, I'd rather it had no HUD, but nothing to detract from the game. Congratulations for the game.

Bom puzzle, com uma boa progressão, a escolha estética minimalista pode funcionar bem com o projeto. Pessoalmente eu preferiria que não tivesse nenhum HUD, mas nada que prejudique o jogo. Parabéns pelo jogo. :flag_br:

Super fun game man! Congrats on the entry :D

lookslikesomething 2017-12-09 21:46

Super puzzle game! I wish there were more levels ;)

tuism 2017-12-15 07:53

Interesting puzzle mechanics but I can't help but wonder how much more there is to the mechanic besides "avoid all the first ones, pick up the later ones then backtrack". Would have been nice to see some more interesting puzzles than that. The last level was beginning to feel like that, but again, wonder how much there is in it :) Try working out more stuff!

Your game contains the same main mechanics as mine and your game is much better than mine... I loved your game... If you get some Timr try mine https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/coin-mania
