A platformer I made for the Brackey jam, the theme was "light". The game can be played on itch, and here is the rating page. Source code is on github

Guide Bepo the Moth to the exit by turning on lights.

The physics are very much inspired by celeste, as I took a few days to take apart how gravity and sliding is handled. The camera shake is from one of trasevol_dog's doodles.

I wish I had had more time for levels.

Interesting puzzle game ! Now have BEPO pick up the player at the end of winning the game and fly off into the sunset. :)

I have an irrational fear moths, but I still enjoyed this.

It's awesome, nice to see it has come this far in such a short time. What I think makes this game shine is the level design - there are multiple ways to traverse the stage if you've got the skill/wit to figure it out. Ideal kind of game for speed runners - add a timer!

Timer is a good idea! I actually didn't really plan for it to be multiple paths through the levels, it happened in some of them, and I will be more conscious of it when I make more levels.

Very nice! A little confusing that the on-screen prompts use X and C. It'd perhaps also be nice for the puzzle part of the game if it were possible to see what switches turned on each light, but as the levels are pretty linear and short that's probably not necessary as it is now.
