I walk toward the only thing in the game that I can see, then I hear a loud sound, then I can't see anything or do anything... Then, every once in a while I can see a bit of light again before repeating the process.
Alright, I've tried it twice, but nothing happens after the initial event. If there are clues int he audio, they are too faint to make out over the wind. Sorry I couldn't figure it out.
I'm not sure if I experienced it correctly. After a lot of trying I finally made it to the light and it said Game Over. I don't know if that means that I beat the game or lost.
So I try walking towards the light and I get a loud explosion sound. Then I don't seem to make any progress towards it, jump and push forward as I might. I can move relative to it with left and right (or it seems so), but, again, I never make any progress.
Also, I can't quite the game except through ALT+TAB and terminating it, which sucks.
What exactly are you supposed to do if you can't move towards your only means of telling where you are?
Wasn't sure whether the "Game over" screen meant I lost or won. In any case, I got to the illumination! Maybe a few more cues as to the orientation of the camera would have helped.
Jumping is present for a reason :) The mechanic is the puzzle, and there is a way to end the game...I don't really want to give spoilers, but I can keep giving hints if enough people can't figure it out.
Game was nearly unplayable. Extremely loud, unexpected noises are not ok.

quite liked this :). would be nice if you captured the mouse pointer. also the sensitivity is through the roof and i can see a lot of people being too confused to be able to finish it
@Cybearg Dammit, I knew I forgot something. I got used to producing web projects and forgot the need to esc-exit in standalones...
Anyway, you should be able to make progress? It may not be apparent at first because it's a little ways off (and it starts moving away from you after the first event), but it is winnable.
The idea is quite good and it quite match the theme. Nice exploring/maze little game.
It probably need some polish, Game Over for reaching the light is a bit strange, also I put 1-star for the audio because of this crazy noise sound, not sure it's a good idea or probably need to be normalized with the rest of the audio experience.

You have to use the jump key
