I like the graphics and the overall concept a lot. But there is a little bug I guess. In the third level I could see all the hitboxes. But still very nice game.

Chrome marks the executable as a virus :/ No idea why...

@sannyix Thank you for playing! I tested the game out again today and saw the same bug. I just put out a version with this and a couple other bugs fixed. I appreciate the feedback!

@der-mondhase I'm not quite sure why either. I'll see if I can fix this soon but i'm not quite sure how right now.

@jazzathefoss I will try to download it with another browser. Which engine did you use to build the game? Maybe it's an uncommon choice that triggers some Chrome "heuristic" recognition?

Very nice artwork (like the parallax of the buildings in the background) and cool looking effects for when you're in "eclipse" mode and an enemy attacks you, I had a lot of fun playing this game!

Nice graphism and good idea. I had difficulties to start the game from the main menu (the common spacebar or enter keys were not usable). Nevertheless, thank you for your game

Really like the designs for the enemies' demon forms! Nice work on the attack animation as well, very clean looking!

The light/dark mechanic was an interesting one, and the character design was very well done. This felt like an anime come to life. The game was a bit too eerily quiet, but that can be expected from a gamejam game. I quite liked your entry. Nice work.

Very cool art! I really liked the switching from dark to light, but I couldn't figure out if it really changed anything big gameplay-wise. The collecting sparks to progress wasn't super well communicated, but I liked it when I figured it out. Well done!

Cool action platforming game! The spritework is nice and I like all the freaky effects that play when you get hit by the demon enemies; the little blue guy that spins around and tilts the camera is my fav.

​Did I know why I kept turning into a demon? No. Did I love whipping people with my cape? Yes. I made it to the end. was intrigued by how those telsa arc poles might work, I think they turned on the lights? Very good.

Liked it! would be nice at least a small text that gives a bit of background of what's happening. seeing people turning into demons at night the first time was a nice "wow" moment. Good game!

Arts are estonishing ! Changing into demon is a great concept, it makes some pressure to the player and add tension in gameplay. Sadly I have the feeling to have missed the game, I simply run it through the end as the enemies has a lot of health and there is no reward into killing them. Also, I was a little surprised to hear no sound during the game. Just a few SFX can make a great difference in game mood :-)

The visual presentation is very nice. The game would definitely benefit from some audio love and general game feel improvements such as particles, and a camera that moves ahead of you. Beyond that, the gameplay itself felt a bit arbitrary to me. I like the concept of the game and really believe it holds potential though!

Except for the blurry font this looks pretty good.

there were some great mechanics in there I did not expect. Also, it seemed pretty balanced to me. Nice job!

Nice and sticky game! Good graphics, a variety of enemy heroes pleases, a cool idea of ​​flipping the screen from a blow, it was funny. I got positive emotions from the game, thanks for that, you are great)
