The Will of the Wisps

Made in 72 hours for Ludum Dare 40

Theme: The more you have, the worse it is"

“They say upon a moonless night, when total darkness falls, The woods sing out, beyond our sight, and, from their depths, they call.”

A young girl wanders lost in a mystical forest, guided only by the light of the fireflies she collects in her jar. But soon she will discover that the more light she collects, the less she wants to see the things lurking in these haunted woods.

Perhaps, she hopes, the gathered light of the fireflies may reveal a path to safety. Or, perhaps, to more things darker still.

Controls:

• WASD/Arrows to move
• Collect fireflies to illuminate your surroundings and to reveal away obstacles blocking your path
