Loved the sound design here! And the music is so good too! The movement mechanics are very good and balanced, makes you want to hover around forever. And nice use of camera angles too!

Design Statement
We kept the music in loop while we iterated over many ideas. We were focusing on our strengths which were coding, environment art and game feel & polishing. We discarded a few ideas that were too big in scope to fit in 2 weeks. After listening the trcak a bunch, we just wanted a game where you start in a dark environment (because music starts out melancholic) and you light up the world as you progress. The core idea is that you start with very little and end with many things. Actually, lighting up the moon idea came at very near end of the jam.

We did not use any AI generative tools. We used Claude for a bit of help with scripting and editing.
