My entry for Ludum Dare 28, Theme: You Only Get One.
And in this game, You Only Get One Source of Light!

Check out the Ludum Dare entry page:
http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludu m-dare-28/?action=preview&uid=1 1391

STORY:

Kingdom of Solaris has always been protected by light of holy lighthouse. One day however, the lights disappeared, plunging the kingdom into darkness..

However, all hope is not lost. One day a young wizard Lucia arrived, and used all her strength to create a ball of light powerful enough to lit the lighthouse again!

While the orb is very powerful, it's also very unstable. A slightest bump can cause the orb to explode! Lucia needs to use the orb to light her way, while trying to keep the orb intact. Will she be able to end the age of darkness?

Wow wow wow. I love nearly everything about this game. I'm awful at it, but I love it. Beautiful art, and the concept is wonderfully simple.

At or around the fourth level, I was maneuvering Lucia through the rails and carts, and had to jump her onto a platform, (had to time it just right so I did not run into the spikes!) but instead overshot and had myself gasping as I fell into the abyss of darkness. I waited a few moments after to respawn...
..was it frozen?..
I moved the orb towards the area of my death, and found Lucia just standing there below on a newly revealed flooring.
Phew! It nearly had me going :P
Superb game!
