Dusk by nov1kk

[raw]
made by nov1kk for LD32 (JAM)
Change between day and night to see objects that can only be seen during day or night, solve tricky puzzles and be careful with the monsters!

- Move with arrow keys
- Change between day and night with X
- Jump with space

Every level can be solved, you just need to think!

Very well polished, and pretty nice puzzles. Only tangentially relates to the theme though :/

Pretty fun game, with a neat concept of the day/night gun. The jumping and controls were a little bit frustratingly slow at times, but I think this was due to the Unity Web Player.

Very great game! I had a lot of fun playing, it really makes you think. It could benefit from some checkpoints; I almost made it to the end of the second level but died, and I didn't have the heart to go through it again. Great work though!

P.S. Where's the unconventional weapon?

Very nice game! I don't think I finished it, was stuck at some point, but will try again tomorrow! Sometimes when you switch the physics go really weird on blocks, but that's a feature i guess! :P I only think the music was abit depressing.

Please make a commercial version and take my money. I love this!

Good balance of platforming and puzzles, nice art, and the perfect music. There's something very soothing about this game. The music is a big part of it, but it's also the way everything works together as a whole.

I agree that it doesn't really incorporate the theme, but it's good enough that I don't really care. :)

I couldn't beat it but still like it. As soon as I started playing I was reminded of Braid. The graphics and audio are really good and it's actually got some good puzzles.

It's incredibly fun and challenging. It really keeps you on your toes. I love the thought of a gun casting day and night. You won me over the second the platform just flings the lion in the second level. I was having some slight issues with jump delays, but other than that, I never saw a problem with it. Overall, well done!

Didn't really relate to the theme but a fun puzzle platformer. Occasionally a bit punishing though when you get something a tiny bit wrong and have to start the level again.

Liked the ambience.

Quite challenging! I like the graphics. Controls felt a little off, but that added to the challenge. Cool!

The music was great! I liked the day/night mechanic but I wish the platforming was a bit tighter.

Maybe I didn't get far enough, but I wish there were checkpoints. That would make it less frustrating than having to start at the beginning when you die.

Would be nice if you explained more, about how the game works, because a lot of it was trial and error for me. But overall I enjoyed it. Keep making games! :D

Beautiful game with an interesting and great mechanical controls. Just wish there was a little more chance to be safe when switching between day and night. =)

Very good game. Polish and nice graphics. The gameplay is good but sometimes I felt like I was doing a leap of faith. Anyway well done!

Really cute with really nice puzzles. For me the only problem is how floaty the physics are, which is kind of the cardinal sin for a platformer. It was hard to stop/jump accurately in many places, which is super frustrating if you lose a lot of progress. Good idea though!

cool art style and take on the theme. the ambient music is nice as well. only bad thing i can think of is the camera being sometimes not helpful.

Nice mechanic! The platform that hurls the lion into the distance is brilliant. I think that one moment will earn you an extra few rating points!

Nice use of voxel. Lack of sound fx though.

Very challenging puzzle, it is pretty hard until you get used to the mechanics (reminds first time I played portal). Congratulations for the game.

Nice voxel graphics and moody soundtrack. Decent concept, I always enjoy light/dark worlds in games. Could have done with more checkpoints though!

Reminds me of Giana Sisters Twisted Dreams. Good concept. Maybe some sound effects had been nice. Simple, good game.

The connection to the theme is a little thin, but a very interesting mechanic that has a lot of potentional outside of the jam. Great music!

Amazing concept. This would be an awesome full release if more time was given to it. :)

Great game! At first I thought there's a bug, then I realised it's part of the game. I really enjoyed it. I think it would be worthwhile continuing with. Potentially an addictive mobile game?!

Nice puzzle game. I loved the idea of switching between day and night.
