The Luminous Trial

Hey MattyAce!

I just finished playing the feedback clone this morning with my coffee. It plays remarkably well on both mobile and desktop so congratulations there! 

• I would say that it feels like an adventure game to me. Haven't had a puzzle experience like that since Breath of the Wild (I know, I know, I need to play the sequel).
• Personally, I like to figure things out solo. God of War ruined a few puzzles for me during my playthrough with Atreus blurting out aggressive hints after 30 or so seconds. That said, I am likely in the minority of players and we have to keep in mind all world demographics when building. If you were to expand this world (which I think you should post-competition) to include mechanics with multiple steps built on to existing mechanics required to complete them, then clues might be helpful. Nothing sucks more than getting stuck on a puzzle/world for hours and then rage quitting. 
• The only mechanic that wasn't as smooth on Mobile was the left side room laser-redirection-gate. I had to constantly go back and redirect the plate by a few pixels to get the beam just right. It wasn't frustrating nor did it hurt the fun, but it was literally the only note I had for the world other that, "Man... that was fun. I can't believe this was build in Horizon."
• The visuals are stunning! Great world layout with zero clutter. The castle also makes for great world building and the NPC was a pleasant surprise. The world perfectly directed me where I needed to go via the environmental storytelling and the use of doors (plus that AWESOME camera trick when they open) was a solid 10/10. My only callout would be for the purple diamond that opens the blue door.  Threw me off just a little bit, but I'm sure that is an easy fix. 
• Over all? Excellent work. Can't wait to see what else you cook up!
