In Light Shifter, you explore this world.\r\nThe goal is to change the shape of the lights and their directions to solve the puzzles at hand.\r\n\r\nThere are 6 puzzles in total, ranging from super easy, to good luck, you'll need it.\r\nThe refractors (objects used to move the pieces) can be placed through walls. This can either ruin your game, or speed up your play time depending on how gamey you are.\r\n\r\nWall mounted objects cannot be moved.\r\nSun must hit sun output.\r\nMoon must hit moon output.\r\nPurple must match up with purple output.\r\nOrange must match with orange output.\r\n\r\nI didn't really distinguish between what object is an inputter and what is an outputter, so that makes it a little more confusing but also more challenging. \r\nControls\r\n----\r\nWASD - Move\r\nLeft click OR right click - Pickup\/place refractors.\r\nSPACE - Jump\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe download link will only be available during the jam review period.
