Will of the Wisp


Alone in the forest, you awake to a different world than the one you knew. Seek out other fae; more are lost as you are, and with numbers comes strength. Once you are many, you may find your way home.

Gameplay


Navigate the forest, gathering other tiny fae spirits to your flock, avoiding obstacles and enemies. Bunch up your flock to navigate obstacles, and expand it to appear bigger and scare off predators. With enough fae in your flock, you can pass through the gates keeping you from your home.

Known issues


* Ideal SFX/music balance didn't make it into jam build, but there's a slider - recommended adjust SFX to ~50
* Frame rate drops on many machines around 70 faes - optimisation underway for post-jam build
