Was a pretty interesting game with intriguing puzzles! Definitely saw the intentions of them but it was unclear how to actually do them (Though I suspect that is because I didn't read the book at the beginning, so I might have missed that.) But the foreshadowing of the light making the player go higher was well done and the whole metaphor at the end was pretty cool and deep! Could have been polished a little but was pretty fun to play! Liked the reapers; thought they were cool!

Thank you for playing and making the YouTube video! 
Yeah, the game is missing some polishing due to the fact I made it for a jam in limited time. I even had to cut down the content. Originally there were 2 more rooms you could solve, but they're still there as a secret.
Close to one torch is a hidden ramp that'll lead you above the walls to the other rooms to find a cyan and yellow light. If you get all 3 lights the portal leads to an easter-egg room.
I found out the  op strategy for the torches is to light one up at a time until all reapers have gathered there, then you have to wait until they went around the corner to light up the torch again. Each torch raises a certain step while it's burning.
I just realized that my markers on the torch don't really make sense because you can look on them from the other direction.
Watching you play was quite helpful for me to learn where to improve myself.
Thanks again.

Thank you for playing! The character is "Sevarog" by Epic Games. He comes with the voices. I will update all the credits in the description.
