DILEMMA OF A CANDLE:

HAVE you ever thought about how HARD life must be for a candle? For its entire life, we—candles—lie in the darkness of your old toolbox, waiting for a SINGLE MOMENT for which we were born — to light up and quickly burn down. Sounds depressing? But not all candles are ready to accept this horrific fate, at least I'm NOT!

You can call me Shine and I'm a candle. Please, help me to find the escape from this meaningless routine. However, BE SMART to not dull my shine for nothing — the time is limited when a candle lights up, you know! I don't want to repeat the fate of my grandcandle...

TO SAVE MY LIFE:

• MOVE the platforms with my light!

        • FIND the quickest and shortest path for an Escape! 

• SHIFT between the dark frozen mode and shining "OMG TIME RUNS DOWN FAST" mode

        • EXPERIMENT with different routes (a lot of experiments)

• and MOST IMPORTANTLY: AVOID the black hole at any cost, I BEG YOU

IMPORTANT MESSAGE:

 For the BEST performance (especially for MAC users), try to download the application files (Windows x64/MAC)  in the bottom of the page. Version for a Web Browser might be slower, thank you for understanding! ;)

P.s. Additionally, I can't make the external hyperlinks to work properly in a browser

P.S.S. NOTE from a creator AtymTima Games™:

It's my first Indie Game made in Unity after 1 month of learning and 1 month of development. The "No Time To Shine" is made for a Game Dev TV Community Jam, so it might be updated/remade in the future! It means that any feedback from you might be crucial for me to improve and provide a better game for you next time :)
You can comment on music, art, sound design, level design, or the game itself, which were my first attempt to create something for a game
