A simple yet increasingly challenging puzzle game about lighting a path through hexagons.
Comes with a level editor for creating levels and sharing them through Newgrounds' new(ish) data API, and also some medals to unlock.
Use the mouse to light up unlit tiles (by rolling over them), with the brighter coloured tiles as starting points. Click to restart the level. Some tiles have different requirements, such as needing to be covered twice or in a particular order.
The idea was to make a puzzle game where the puzzle or challenge wasn't in failing to understand the mechanics or accidentally missing something. Many puzzle games (point and click, spot the difference games, sometimes the puzzle elements of RPGs etc) could be quite cheap I felt, so I tried to make the focus of this on understanding and mastering a fairly simple concept instead of overloading you with new, confusing stuff. That went quite well and the game does manage to get incredibly challenging. Also, you can switch the theme from the options menu for a change of atmosphere. Enjoy!

There's a problem with level 25. One of the hexagons is missing so the level can't really be completed. The missing hexagon is supposed to connect the longest "pennisula path" to the rest of the puzzle Other than that, the game is fun to play and it's a real challenge to complete all the levels.

Concept has been done to death, but i like the graphics of the game! Also the interactive gameplay(just clicking to restart a level is nice and comfortable) however they get too hard too fast, just by level 10 or so it was more trial and error than thinking, because you would have to had a crazy memory to be able to finish a level without trying first.
However the menu was bad, really confusing. I saw what you were trying to do, but it didn't work.

I don't always write game reviews, but this awesome puzzle really deserves it!
This game increase it's difficult in a smooth way, making the player adapt to it, learning new strategies and stuff. In the last 3 levels, I was about to collapse!
The background music was perfectly fitted and the graphics were really cool too!
I liked so much this game! I think that you should do a bigger version for Android, Apple and others smartphone systems, with half of the levels for free. So we could have even more fun and you could make some profit too! You deserve it after all.
Thanks for the great game! Keep up this way!
