Illuminate this underground world to go deeper and deeper.
Use mirrors, light splitters, and light combiners to weave the light down the complicated mine.
Along the way you'll encounter checkpoints which can only be activated by pure white light.

This is a fun idea well executed. Bending the light around is a fun interaction!

It's a good puzzle. I like it.

Nice work and original take on the theme. I liked the puzzle mechanic, just wished there were more levels / puzzles. :)

This is a super cool idea!

I couldnt solve the puzzle with the multiple lights... but I'll put some more time in to see if I can.

Artwork is stunning. Sfx re very well put together for such a small little thing.

Gameplay is GREAT-- but needs a bit more information present for the player without having to intuit 100%

Really cool puzzle game! I didn’t expect to spend so much time on it, but I did.
Sadly, I couldn’t finish it — always felt like I was missing two more mirrors 😅

The game is very interesting and exciting, I got stuck in it for about 20 minutes. The idea and implementation are at the highest level.

This is a really solid puzzle game! I was stuck on the second but for soooo long I just had to give up in the end! Could do with some sort of hint system I think. Good effort!

Very well made, works well. Unfortunately I'm horrible at puzzle games so I wasn't able to get very far, but it's a good game. Congrats!

I did it! Whew, I've been picking at it the last couple of days, very tough but rewarding. Looking at the final solution, I appreciate how much it made me change my thought process as I worked on solving it. I wasn't even clear at first that you had to recombine the colored lights into a white beam!

Nice puzzle. I got through the second part by using all the 25 mirrors and didn't see anything to aim for after that and aren't sure if that's a win or there is more.

Funny puzzle. Good job! But rules explanation wouldn't be amiss xD

Great take on the theme! I liked the puzzle. I am not that good in puzzles, but I admire anyone who comes up with something unique or deeply thematic.
