Alight is a platformer that mixes exploration and reflexes and more than a little story. Move with the arrow keys, fly with the space bar or up arrow. If you find yourself having trouble getting much altitude, trying pressing the space bar at a slower pace until you find the right rhythm. And remember that you can always drop down out of a flock of birds without using a flap of your wings with the down arrow key.

Every time you enter a door, your game is automatically saved, and you can replay a level at any point.

If you're amazed by the music like we were, you should check out Smiletron, who made the song -- he has a web site at smiletron.org and more songs at 8bc.org/members/SMILETRON

the return trips are not needed and they serve no purpose.

ok game

the gameplay is ok but the story is all emotional and so boring. there were not many hard or challenging parts in the game. if this was a somehow an all emotional flash movie then it would've been great but as a game it sucks.

As a storytelling project I guess it has some interest. But the gameplay is just bleh. Having some coordination with the timing of the space/up arrow is neat, but I found its repitition of seeing a door, finding the items and backtracking dull. If this is some kind of dream world, I would dream myself some less crappy wings.

Not a lot of anything

I think the music and the scenary of the whole game was ok. But even do that, it is pretty bouring and repetetive.
It is a kind of history about some child and that's it.
3/10 because the scenary and the music. All the other things, in my opinion, are bad.

I can't get in to it

If it a good game to other ok but when I am falling asleep to play this it isn't very fun there no wow to keep me going. The story seem nice but i can't stay focus on it to understand it.
