A simple puzzle game about skylines, stars, and sleep.

Meet your harvest quota, while leaving enough wheat behind to block out that darned light pollution.

There is an issue with this web build. Light pollution calculations are extremely inconsistent. The game is still playable, but actual gameplay results are unpredictable.

I like the gameplay. Nice twist. At first it was hard to understand how to block light, maybe an example would've been good. You get the idea after a couple tries. On later levels it was too hard to get enough stamina to be able to reach the quota.

Very unique and clever core mechanic, I think balance was a bit off and it's a touch too hard. Really well done though, great job!

Very interesting idea, it was hard to tell what was tall and what wasn't

Too easy, won on the first go. Very funny twist, cool gameplay idea!
