Link is broken, unfortunately...

pixelmonkey 2019-10-07 00:27

Link's working now! Nice and simple puzzle game, I like the lighting mechanic!

norris-eldridge 2019-10-07 00:36

Ironically, clicking your link results in "nothing"

cethin 2019-10-07 00:38

Like the others have said, the link is broken. Is your itch page set to private maybe?

snufkinshat 2019-10-07 00:46

I think your link is broken.

trypants 2019-10-07 00:49

broken link :(

superunknown 2019-10-07 00:59

Fixed the link. I didn't realize I never changed the itch.io status from "Draft". Doh!

jcmonkey 2019-10-07 02:41

nice game, i like the concept of having to figure it out by dropping the lights, or just run and try it

twinturbodouche 2019-10-07 17:51

Winner Winner chicken dinner! I really like this concept! I hope you continue to add levels after the jam!

dvlv 2019-10-07 18:28

This was fun to play, and a cool take on the theme. Nice job!

ssstormy 2019-10-07 19:22

Congratulations on the submission! The game is nice. I only realized that the lights create a solid block halfway in.

callavicka 2019-10-07 20:28

I like this game a lot! I think it would be cool if there were some enemies or something to make the levels more dynamic. Good work!

penguinboy 2019-10-07 20:58

It was a really fun game. I really enjoyed the concept of it! Winner winner chicken dinner :)

thetatautau 2019-10-07 22:08

Nice game. It probably needs one additional mecanic to make it interesting. The levels felt the same.

maxymax 2019-10-08 00:03

VERY clever that when placing a light it also blocks your path! I really dig that mechanic!

hcursino 2019-10-08 13:31

Reminded me of my early days of Pokemon. As a kid I didn't know how to speak English so I never got the information that there was a move that I could teach a Pokemon to shed light into the dark cave. So I just bumped into every single wall until I finally reach the end every single time I had to go through there. I enjoyed the game, nice mechanic not seen that often. I manage to finish it without using any lights though, it was fun.

ryu 2019-10-08 15:37

Very cool! I actually made it to level 5 without placing a light, just couldn't figure that last one out without help haha. As a suggestion, when you hear the music fade out and start back up it's a bit jarring, I think it would be much better to have it constantly loop.

superunknown 2019-10-08 22:04

@ryu Thanks for the feedback! I initially had a small loop of the music I created but it had a problem looping and there was a small delay in between the loops. I didnt really have time to fix it so I just made a longer version of the song and faded.....I agree with you though and appreciate the feedback.

nathaniel-jensen 2019-10-08 22:12

Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Good game! The fact that the light blocks your movement adds a new spin to this type of game. Great job!

richnou 2019-10-09 14:09

Very nice work! I like it :-)

100th-coin 2019-10-09 17:09

Interesting game! I found the lights to be pretty unhelpful, and found more fun just trying to memorize the maps blind. Cool maze game!

jk5000 2019-10-09 18:15

The idea is super fun and I really like the music. The levels is okay, but I would have liked some more difficult levels. Overall a pretty good jam game.

mutuware 2019-10-09 20:55

Maybe add some danger, e.g. mines or monsters!

robowarrior1982 2019-10-10 19:38

A good small puzzle game ! Good job !

djee 2019-10-10 19:52

Pretty good idea, and very clever use of the light-as-blocker to balance the reward it gives. Nice touch with the background music and sfx, missing on a lot of entries unfortunately.

alphaden 2019-10-11 17:00

Nice idea. But it sometimes leads to repeated button presses(right and up or left and down). But over all and nice game to think and pass time.

frenchie 2019-10-12 06:53

This was a neat little puzzle game! I realized I could beat each level by placing a bunch of lights and then restarting to find the path, but I decided to challenge myself and play strategically :sunglasses: My strategy was to move until I got blocked and then place a light on the spot that blocked me and work my way around the board. All in all, a great first jam entry! :smile:

dock-frankenstein 2019-10-12 08:59

That was something. It was a very interesting idea. Fun puzzle game overall.
