Keep Áed, the final spark, alive!

The fundamental struggle between Light and Eternal Dark is almost decided. There is a final Spark left, just a tiny glowing Ember. The God of Light created it just before he froze, igniting it with his last wisp of energy.
The Lord of Darkness will play this game against you, the final Spark. Sure to conclude the war and stump out light forever, he laughs at your efforts.

tips


- Keep a lookout for the "storypoints" popping up when you move - they'll explain (text + some voiced) the mechanics (and they might keep you alive too).

- Happy tree-incinerating! (pressing e will eat a tree... left mouse click on tree will spark you there.. in ethereal form)

- Unlock the portal by lighting all the braziers. Just one level so far, but it's pretty expansive ;)

about



- This 2D Platformer is meant to be atmospheric and all self-made within 72h as our submission for Ludum Dare 46 - Theme " Keep it Alive ".

- Fun Project to learn gamedev. It's the first game we made. We basically started to play around with Unity six weeks ago. Maybe we will make this a real game?

team

should this become a full game?


Thanks for the FEEEDBACK! This is really motivating. A bit more and we will make this a steam game and add content and polish!
