"Melancholy" Sounds Like A Vegetable

To really bring out the mood of my application I've adjusted the code so that the glow of the fireflies is relative to how many are left. The less alive the more dimly their lights :( Another feature I am in the process of adding is a desaturated backdrop that begins to cover up the original colour image so the environment gets more and more depressed the more fireflies die.
I thought this would be an interesting approach to take as most games reward users in one way or another for interacting with them but this application makes them feel guilty instead.
