Looks like we had the same basic idea! Pretty well-rounded game, Although I think chiptune music would have fitted better. Fiendishly hard towards the end, too :)
Nice little game! Although music is pretty annoying and bad, sorry.
Great concept. New game mechanics are introduced well, and the ambient track adds a nice mood to it.
An other original take on the theme! Great game, simple graphics and gameplay., I like it. :)
Nice graphics, good gameplay, simple and nice soundtrack
good job :)
Watching you in the stream was really enjoyable, and you made a really nice game, I love the graphics and the gameplay.
When I made it to the three button room I rage quit lol. Good game.
Hey Galman, very nice game. I especially like the use of the theme to enforce the main mechanic.
I enjoyed playing this game, simple gameplay and graphics (and not as in "boring" ^^ )
It's fun! Bravo!
Great game. A bit slow gameplay for my taste, but I really found it fun anyways. I like the graphics, and the music is very fitting. Great concept and implementation of the theme.
Good job!
I like the mood that the graphics and the music blend into!
The game is a bit challenging (read "hard"), but pleasant to play overall. =)
Nice and polished. A bit sad, that we do not see the game most of the time ;)
Fun mechanics, good difficulty curve, and a cute, polished art style. The audio is nice, too, and fits the art perfectly. Lots of fun... great job!
Adorable. Would be fun with some night creatures trying to get you when the lights are off.
Nice cute little game, really like the mood. And the puzzles are good :)
Pretty fun. Played about 5-6 levels. Basically a memory game. I feel like some of the levels maybe should have been a little simpler for the 10 seconds. I died and re-tried a lot :)
Very nice game. The idea is pretty different from the other games I've seen, and I like the graphics. :)
Very nice! I liked the simple design to account for the lack of light.
Well executed to be sure. Got a little boring after awhile, but the game works well enough. Good job!
Solid puzzler! love the effective artstyle and the light-mechanic :)
That was pretty neat. Loved the art style and atmosphere, and that quiet little track never got old.
Cute character and graphical style. The game is a really clever take on the theme. It gets surprisingly tough later on. Nice work!
Very nice game! really enjoyed playing this one for much longer then the others so far :)
I really like this.
There's a nice variety to the levels, and the memory challenge is cool. The graphics are pretty and the audio blends fine with the game.
Nice work!
Awesome game! Had a blast with this one. The light mechanic works really well and the graphics are cute! :)
This got challenging towards the end! Simple but cute graphics, excellent music (the sound effects were basic, but the music more than made up for it), and the gameplay is great and (as far as I can tell) pretty innovative. One of the more polished entries I've played so far.
Nitpicks: movement was a bit slow, and given the importance of the button sound effects, they should probably be a bit louder. These are very minor nitpicks, though.
Great solid game, with a nice use of the theme!! I featured it in a compilation video of Ludum Dare 27 games, if you would like to check it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVjNz61S5Vg
simple graphics did the job, it's clear you spent a lot of time playtesting and making the whole thing really smooth and polished - the quality really shows. For a 48h game, this is very, very well done indeed! Good use of the theme, as well. This held my attention completely and I couldn't stop until the very end.
Great sprites! I laughed the first time I saw the character from behind, cute backpack :) The die effect is great too.
Nice job on this one. I found it on Kongregate. :) Love the pixel graphics, and the use of the theme.
Really cool idea... I feel like it would be more fair that you get a tiny glimpse of the level at the start, as you are always going to use up a tiny amount of your precious time that way.
I think the graphics and audio were perfect - the drone-y tones work better than a chip tune I think... more ambience.
nice effort but i thought the puzzles were not too hard -- great job
I like this kind of minimalistic game art. A few pixels, not so much sounds... great designed levels! Cool!

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Good game! Not a huge fan of the graphics, but very well made.
