Pretty tough but it would fit in nicely with recent indie puzzlers.\rMaybe make light shine through the balls?

I think I liked the "expert" game better, but the "normal" version served as a tutorial for me :-)\r\rThe music was a great fit for the game, although I do wish you'd chosen to compress the music before distributing -- 168MB takes a long time to download here!\r\rOverall a very good work. Great job."},{"author_name":"rantt","author_uid":"41103","time":"Dec 16, 2014 @ 3:10am","epoch":1418699100,"text":"Using the light to pull objects was a cool mechanic. Only issue I had was when a ball was under the pointer you couldn't see the light anymore but it still pulled everything around it.

To do this, you use the power of light to guide them! Try to get the fastest time possible, and if you're up for a challenge, try out Expert mode!\r\n\r\nHow To Play\r\n In Towards Light, you control your light with your mouse, no other controls needed.\r\n\r\nAbout Last Man Standing Games\r\n Last Man Standing Games is a team of one, Max, age 16. I entered Ludum Dare 30 in August of this year, and came in 700th place of 2500 contestants, I hope to do even better this time! Currently I have no games released, but I do have one game, titled Legendary, that I am currently working on.\r\n\r\nComment your best times, I got 5:10 in Normal and 6:32 in Expert! (Also comment if you found the hidden secret. If you didn't find it, look!)\r\n\r\nImportant Note: Please run this game in a wider window, or else part of the screen may be cut off, making the game unbeatable if that happens. If playing in windowed mode, the window is resizable ingame, so you can adjust it until the game looks like the second picture provided (the screen should be surrounded by a black border, see picture 2). Sorry for the inconvenience","title":"Towards Light"}
