A valiant effort indeed.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The gameplay is nice. The wisp feels a little bit hard to control at first, but that gets better after playing a little - and I guess it might've been to easy if you had really crisp controls.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The presentation looks good, everything from the environment to lights and the wisp itself fits well together.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>A bit of music wouldn't have hurt; if you can't do it yourself, have a look at generators like http:\/\/abundant-music.com!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>All in all, a pretty good job! And congratulations on finishing your first LD!
