In a world where night is eternal, where dark creatures lurk in the surrounding shadows, and where humans are primitive; They know the fire, but its creation still eludes their young minds.
Away from the tribe, Luciole finds the gift of fire in the heart of the forest, and now bears the burden to bring back a flame to his god, for he alone can shine away the everlasting night....
for survive you should stay in the light, grab tree branch and ignite it for light your way
I made this game from scratch alone, all assets ,graphs, music and code. Enjoy it !
i don"t have the time for music implemented and..death condition in the Jam Build, sorry ^^" But it's now in the PostJam Build.
the build post jam have some fix, add music and death... you can change commande azerty to qwerty in the option's menu*
Abstract: check options for qwerty keyboard!
QWERTY
*A/D -walk
E - take branch in tree or ignite it in light for 1branch
Q - revives the torch you hold for 1branch
S- put down or take object (torch or crate)*
AZERTY
*Q/D -walk
E - take branch in tree or ignite it in light for 1branch
A - revives the torch you hold for 1branch
S- put down or take object (torch or crate)*
> *in the JamBuild, I haven't implemented qwerty keyboard... you can switch your keyboard language if you have a azerty keyboard mode. in the PostJam build you can choose for qwerty or azerty control in the option menu.*
When i read the feedback, the controls are pretty confusing so a complete explaination with images !
You can going to the left and to the right with "q" and d" (azerty keyboard) or "a" and "d" (qwerty keyboard).
creatures lurk in the dark, if you going in it, without light, they are chasing you and eating you !
if they touchs you,it's game over, return to the start menu.
> (In the Jam build, the death is not implement...but it is in the postjam build.)
for save your skin, return in the light the most faster you can,they are going back hide in the dark.
So, for avoid danger, you need light ! for that takes a branch in a tree, the collectable branches are just the ones in the height of the character. when you can take one, a sign appears on the top of the head of the character, this sign appears for anything you can interact (branches, torch and crate).
Press "e" to take the branch, the number of branches you have is on the top left of the screen.
and return in the light to avoid creatures...
for ignite your branch, you need fire ! you can only ignite a branch WITH a light source so return in the light of the big fire, and press e this consume one of your branches, the number of them decreases on the left top screen's corner. You have your first torch !
if you already hold a torch, you can't ignite a new one. but you can put on the floor the one you hold and then, ignite a new one in the light of the first one
The torches are consumed and their light diminishes. You can pay one in your reserve of wood for relighting your torch before it goes out. For that press "a"( with azerty keyboard) or "q"(with qwerty keyboard)
You can hold just one object at the time, so for moving a crate you should put down your torch. For that press "s" to put it down
Now, you can take the crate. move to the crate presse "s" to take it, move where you want to put it and press s
you can return take your torch.
For climb on the crate,going to it and press "z" (azerty keyboard) or "w" (qwerty keyboard)
> this part is a little buggy in the JamBuild, some hitbox's issues...

* * I have deactivate the music rating because at the end of the jam, i had not implemented it in the game, i'm pretty sad for this.. so a link to listening it : * *
