This has a really nice mood to it and flying around bumping into things feels good. With some more development this could make for a really good rhythm game or physics toy. Those grabby-ass monsters give me some primal fear too.

The game mechanic is nice ! It lacks some kind of goal, I would say. Since I was wandering around, I tried to put light everywhere to see if it would become laggy at some point. It did, but it took me around 10minutes.

Hey you did something really cool, I love the atmosphere and I find the mechanic very attractive and innovative. Also I love how you played with the lights, and how they bump in chain throw the whole map :) Maybe some kind of objective will encourage the player to play longer, but as relaxing and little experience game is awesome!

I was also missing any objectives, and the instructions were too ambiguous - I didn't really understand which creatures were "harmful", what harm can they do, and what are the flowers :) But the rythm mechanics itself was great, it motivates player to time his "third beat" in a safe location before he gets enlightened by the pulse :) By the way, you should have selected the option that your download link supports HTML5.
