RedLight takes place in a world that has been driven away from all light sources except red light because and any light source except red light attracts the evil creatures that now inhabit the earth. luckily for you, you where excepted into a group of human. but the price to get in was to be there scout...
torches will light themselves when you walk past them. in order to beat the levels you need to find an unlit fire with a chair next to it in the top left of the map and light it by pressing L. warning this game can take a bit of time to beat levels as exploring in required.
there are about 5 levels in all. I challenge you to beat them all!
Hey I just played your game, there is to say: * The red light thing if fun, I liked the idea but maybe the radius was a bit short as I couldn't tell what killed me every time * The atmosphere is cool, a bit stressful and the music help feeling the danger * The controls however are a bit harsh, the ladders works strangely cutting gravity down and somehow blocking you on its extremities. * The torch means a lot, giving points of reference, nice idea
I didn't had fun, but I felt introduced to a world I would have loved to know; i left due to controls and lack of lights, just so you know ^^
I have to agree with Vegevan. The controls are not that great. I got stuck on ladders a lot! But the game's mood is very nice. Lighting and background sounds work well for the mood.
Interessting graphics and good atmosphere. The light radius was really low making it difficult to make any progress. It felt like a game about exploring, but a bit too difficult in my opinion to see where I was going. Anyway, good artstyle and idea!
It was extremely hard to understand. The radius of the red light was so short that I had no clue what to do. Would have liked to see a little more explanation happen in the beginning after the 7 minute installation process.
A very moody and atmospheric game, I really liked the palette, the music, the whole feel of it! That being said, I didn't get very far because it is so hard to see what's going on, and is difficult to control. I think this could be really cool with some more time to tune the mechanics. Thanks for participating!
I think I managed to light all the torches but as there was no win screen I was unsure... The mood of the game was good, felt like exploring a dark cave :) Would have loved to see more levels and some more game play elements.
I do agree with Vegevan, the controls left much to wish for
Interesting game, once you get the hang of the controls and collider issues. I couldn't get past the first level, though it seemed like I'd explored it all and lit all the torches. "Interacting" with torches using I per the instructions didn't seem to do anything.
First impression : The light play looks really interesting :)
Sound : Really fitting for your game, really well done :)
Graphics : Combined with the setting of the game those made for an really great combination of mood and light play :) (i also made a moody game like yours with light play, sadly i haven't gotten around to adding a fitting background sound like you, that really enchanced the game :))
Gameplay : I really like the concept of exploring here and that once you die you still gained something to keep going :) and also if you managed to finish something it is easier for you to get back again, really enjoyed that :) as others have said if you keep working on it better controls for climbing the ladders would be nice (i got stuck some times there), but what can you do in such a short time frame :D
Overall : Really good result for the given timeframe, i really enjoyed your game :)
Neat! I found the dark red a little too hard to see on my monitor and it hurt my eyes -_-. I beat the first level, but then had to stop. Controls and collision were a bit janky, but I was able to figure it out eventually. I like the atmosphere.
Overall, decent game with lots of potential. I think having torches light up to guide your way is a great to make an interesting puzzle but with the very dim lights, the game play was very difficult. Also I feel like some more mechanics would help make the game more interesting. However, I loved the art style and the red lighting, your character looks cool too.
The ambient sound and the graphics set a great atmosphere. However, the controls are wanky (especially when using ladders) and the light sources are way too small. Also would have preferred character animations when using ladders. Tweak some values and find a solution to the movement, and this could be a great little game.
