It’s missing some sound and could use better camera movement, but overall it’s a cute game with a great light mechanic.

This was fun to play, and I enjoyed the light mechanic a lot. With some music, I think it could be really atmospheric as well.

Great game! I think it has a lot of potential, and the lighting mechanic is really good. Music/sounds would've definitely improved the experience. I'm not sure if there are more levels past the first one, as I couldn't figure out what to do at the end of it.

EDIT: Read some of the other comments, you have to go back to the level select screen

This game has a lot of potential it was fun to go through the first level. Some sound effects would really enhance the game so the player can hear if there are spiders nearby or walking which would add another element of strategy to this. This was a really cool game though, I'm not sure what to do at the crystal part.

Great game! Too bad you misread the theme.

Submitted

The idea to have to shoot to see your path is very clever, it gives a lot of depth to the gameplay ! Would have loved some sounds effects but overall a solid entry. Congrats on finishing your first game !

Submitted

Great game, the throwing light mechanic is really cool, and particularly impressive considering it's your first game. Didn't get connection to the invincibility theme though

Submitted

Very successful for a first game. I liked the artwork. Congratulations.

I liked the art and the light mechanic! I wasn't fully sure how it connects to the jam theme, but maybe I missed something there.

I also had a bit of trouble figuring out how to finish the level once I found the crystal, so maybe some extra guidance would help? And I think the atmosphere is good, but adding audio would make it even better.

Still, congrats on finishing your first game jam as a solo dev!

Thank you for your feedback. Level 1 is a bit buggy because if you touch the crystal nothing happends. You are supposed to go to the menu where you can chose your level. For some reason i had put the timer on 1000... 

Pretty cool light based mechanic. One thing to consider if you intend to keep making platformers is to look into coyote time. I think it will greatly improve the feel of the platforming

Is it just me or is this gane dead-silent? . . . AND THE AUDIENCE IS DEAF!!!

Other than that, cool looking game, even if a bit janky

I love the light gun, its a cool concept and looks really neat. I was sad when I found the crystal and couldn't grab it or anything. Gimme it
