Description
Thank you for checking out the debut game from DaNCeSWiTHPiXeLS! Please keep in mind that this game was designed with mobile devices in mind. While the full game is available here, on the Steam WORKSHOP, it is highly recommended that you download it (free of charge) on any Android device for the optimal experience!

chi·a·ro·scu·ro (noun) - The treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting. An effect of contrasted light and shadow created by light falling unevenly or from a particular direction on something.

FEATURES:

- A unique puzzle game with original gameplay mechanics!
- 32 hand-crafted levels of varying difficulties!
- Colorful and beautiful - yet minimalistic - aesthetics!
- A mixture of calm and intense soundtracks courtesy of nosoapradio.us!

INSTRUCTIONS:

- At the beginning of each level, the edges of the grid will be glowing. Tap on any of the glowing squares to spawn a solid, white square. This is you, the player.
- Move the white square by holding left mouse button, dragging the mouse in the direction you want to move, and releasing the left mouse button.
- There are three non-white colored blocks: blue, yellow, and red. Depending on where the player's white block is, these colored blocks will cast different colored lights in various directions and angles.
- The goal of the game is to ensure that the correct colored lights land on the correct colored targets. For example, the player can only progress when a red light is overlapping a red circle, but not a black one.
- When all the lights and targets are properly aligned, tap your white square to confirm. If your solution is correct, you will get a prompt saying the level has been completed. Otherwise, the level will reset.
- At any point in the game, you can restart the level by clicking on any of the squares on the edge that were, at the beginning, glowing.

Your critiques, feedback, and suggestions are my stepping stones to being a better developer! Honest reviews, even poor and negative ones, are always welcomed and encouraged!

@VirgilioXD - Thank you for your interest in my game and I am very sorry if the instructions were unclear! The first few levels are supposed to teach you the mechanics, but I guess they did not convey them clearly enough. I will update the game's description shortly with a "manual".

Please let me know if the added description is helpful at all!

I don't know how play it
A tutorial level or instruction message will be good
