The puzzles themselves are enjoyable. Mouse UI for moving objects would've been nice, but keys/controller is sufficient. Some minor annoyances like hitting "next" on the last puzzle in a group restarting the same puzzle. All-in-all good as long as you're alright with a few menu quirks.
Great buy for $3. Going through first level of difficulty. Puzzles are fun and get the creative problem-solving gears spinning nicely. So far solutions' difficulties range from straightforward to pleasantly surprisingly.
It's a good puzzle game for when you have nothing else to play. Music is pretty good as well.

Игра - отстой. Этот пазл с 8бит графикой ресурсов жрет как паровоз без колес, тормозит на и5 и радеоне 76хх. На четвертом уровне заглючил, - квадраты перестали пропускать луч, меняя цвет.
Tres bon jeux J'adore !!
Mourning's Ends Part II: Part II
it's a bit buggy, but nevertheless a lot of fun. For 02,99€ an absolute steal. If you like puzzle games like Prelogate, I would absolutely recommend.
Lightbender has a very simple concept, get the right colour light ti the receiver, there are many levels, some are easy and some are hard. would be nice to have a mouse input but it does not make the game worse. There are 8 packs of puzzles to do minus the tutorial in varying grid sizes and objects make it a challenge, like non-movable mirrors and non-rotatable ones. I do recommend this as for cheap it is very good, and also full price too it is worth it, may not have super high quality graphics but it doesn't matter.
Has some cool mechanics, although needs improvement technically (mouse support, rotate while item is selected) but other than that, it has potential. Look forward to seeing updates to this game to make it a better purchase and easier to recommend.
Edit: Great and fast response and patching from the devs, only thing missing now is mouse controls. Would definitely recommend! Worth the price! :D Old Review at launch: 1. Mousecursor is locked inside the window sometimes. Doesn't make any sense whatsoever. 2. Not sure if it's only me, but there's no mouse control. Moving your mouse does around the menus does absolutely nothing, but for some reason left mouse buttons works as a confirm button. Really infuriating, especially because of point 1. 3. No audio controls at all. Have to go into the windows audio mixer to mute or lower the volume of the game. This is my first impression after 5 minutes of playing. As someone who regularly work with unreal engine, I know that mouse controls are not difficult to implement. Get on it. I am a sucker for mirrors and lazer though, and the game itself seems to have a decent amount of levels in it, even user levels. It's mostly those three points that are bringing it down for me. I would give this a thumbs up review if it weren't for those small issues.
