🌌 LUMIRIC CHASE


"Lumbra is where dreams go to die. Your only hope is to find a signal before the shadows find you."

📡 THE THEME: SIGNAL

For us, a Signal isn't just tech—it's a desperate cry for help. When you find the light, the first thing you'll hear is: "Help me! Give me a signal!" The game is about that struggle: keeping your signal alive (your Bonfire) while the "Noise" (The Shade) tries to jam your frequency and keep you trapped in the void forever.

🔥 HOW TO PLAY


1. Beg for a Sign: Find Lumira. She is the source. If she answers, you get the Lumiric Flame.
2. Light the Beacon: Take that flame to your Bonfire. It’s your lighthouse. Feed it until it’s strong enough to break the silence.
3. Fight the Stagnation: The Shade will kick your bonfire to make your signal fade. Don't let it.
4. The Choice: Once your signal is 100%, you are safe. But will you Wake Up alone or stay in the dark to help your friends find their way?

🎨 ART & TEAM

This is a special one! First time my wife is helping me with art in a game jam! She’s doing all the pixel art in Aseprite.

Meet Kate, our main Dreamer. She’s small, she’s lost, and she’s desperately begging for a signal. We wanted her to feel fragile against the overwhelming darkness of Lumbra.

⚔️ THE ROLES

* Dreamers: Collect charges, heal at Lumira, and fuel your beacon. If the Shade hits you, you lose 50% of your signal.

* The Shade: You are the interference. Sabotage the bonfires and keep them lost in the static. You can't enter the light of a finished signal.
