Like the lighting but I don't quite understand why shome lights stay on and why some don't. The mechanic with the angled walls is very cool to see. But could be used with more puzzles. Music sounds nice, but the phasing is to fast for the slow type of game. Am I done after the screen fills with darkness?

Graphics are nice, atmosphere is great, music fits perfectly. However, it could take a bit more polishing. For example, a &quot;The end&quot; screen, or at least a way to tell if you have the power or not, except from trying to use it or guessing.\r<br\/>And enemies are actually nicely done.

It is definitely a good start though, because it was pretty fun even to just walk around shooting fireballs, lighting things up. It was just that the enemies were a non threat, and reaching the ending or lighting up the things was pretty straightforward and not very challenging. I guess you couldn't see enemies unless you shot ahead of yourself, but they were so few and far between that it didn't really matter anyway. Some more challenges, more enemies, more levels and it can be a pretty fun game though. Graphics were ok, but pretty flat. I liked what the lighting was doing for the game more than the character or tile art. The tiles were not bad, they had a strong theme, I just prefer a more shaded look."},{"author_name":"DesignerNap","author_uid":"21374","time":"Dec 14, 2014 @ 7:46pm","epoch":1418586060,"text":"Reminds me of some of the darker dungeons in &quot;link to the past&quot; but a very good first entry.
