Every Light Counts

Please use the itch link to play the game if the one on the LD website cannot open.

Description

The forest is swallowed by endless darkness, and you are a swarm of tiny fireflies.
Each of you are weak and lost in the forest. But your death can light up the path of other fireflies, and together, even tiny fireflies can illuminate the entire forest and beat the darkness (and frogs)!

Guide

How to Fly

- [A]/[D] to steer. Your firefly flies forward automatically
- [S] to slow down, but only for a limited amount of time
- [Shift] to turn off your light so that frogs won't see you
- [Space] to launch yourself from the nest

Mechanisms

- You die when you crash into trees/bushes. You will leave a shiny fire-flower there to light up a small area.
- You die when you are discovered by a frog, but the frog will start to emit light!
- Don't be afraid of death. There is no penalty and we have infinitely many fireflies!
- Die near a torch to leave a fire-flower and unlock hidden paths.

About Nests

- There are 16 nests in the forest.
- You can spawn from any nest you've found.
- Enters nest selection mode after death.
- [A]/[D] to select nest, and [Space] to confirm selection.
- Try finding all the nests. But most importantly, enjoy exploring the forest!
