Light Fantastik is a simplistic puzzle/platformer with an "inversion" gimmick where you must play a mode with the controls inverted to solve the levels. The levels are timed so you must move quickly. Overall the gimmick isn't enough to carry the game. The graphics are quite poor and simplistic/artsy/cartoony style. Resolution is fixed. Overall this is probably something that belongs on mobile.

[b]Light Fantastik[/] describes itself as a puzzle platformer, but the emphasis is mostly on the platforming (which can become quite challenging) but the puzzling consists mostly of finding your way through a (sometimes pitch dark) maze. Your avatar can transform into various shapes each with different (dis)abilities. The form which is always running and can't remain still in the horizontal direction is a real pain - you don't get to practice even a tiny bit with this form but instead have to use it straight away for some nasty platforming job. However, after a couple of levels each new ability has become second nature and feels good to control. I liked most of the platforming in this game, and most challenges feel fair, but there are also some levels that are full of cheap death traps. On the whole the 60 main levels are quite balanced and well designed, with continuously increasing difficulty. There are 10 "extra" levels which (fortunately) did not make it into the main game - they consist mostly of over-the-top levels that are more annoying and unfair then fun and challenging - I only completed half of these levels.

Moderate-difficulty platformer with a pasted-on theme. Some effort clearly went into this game, and it shows. If you like the genre, this is recommended.
