A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

This game was made in 5 days for Weekly Game Jam#144. The theme for the game jam was "In the Dark," and the idea for this puzzle game came to mind. 

Gameplay consists of moving the player around the game board to find the end of the level and light up the game board.  The catch is this... you are only allowed to see the walls around you, and the tiles that you have already moved on. The goal is to  complete the circuit as fast as possible. Because of this, the game doubles as both a puzzle game and as a speedrunner. The speedrunning part of this game will be improved once I start to add some more features and game modes. There are certain tiles that cannot be moved on, and there are even ones that will teleport you around. 

There are two gamemodes: Original, and Blitz. The original gamemode consists of everything I made in the 5 day game jam. There are 15 levels, and the goal is to complete them as fast as possible. The blitz gamemode gives you 1 minute to complete as many puzzles as possible. This gamemode utilizes randomly generated levels, so there are much more different level combinations.

If you  this sounds interesting to you, please give it a shot, and leave a review so I can help improve it in the future.
