About this game

In this story-driven RPG puzzle game, you play as Lumen on a quest to escape a mysterious artifact that has trapped his friend Dud. Solve intriguing color-based puzzles by swapping Lumen's color to alter how different colored objects interact with him. Sometimes, you’ll need to think outside the box!

Your choices at the beginning might even unlock an entirely different mode. In this second, side-scrolling shooter-themed puzzle game, Lumen finds himself in a mysterious arcade, taking on the role of Frell: a bounty hunter trying to save a strange new world. Shoot and sneak your way through enemies, solve outlandish puzzles, and defy the laws of gravity as you battle evil snakes and blood bats!

Features:

  • Unique color-based puzzle mechanics where changing Lumen’s color affects interactions with world objects

  • Two distinct gameplay modes unlocked by early choices

  • Side-scrolling shooter elements with enemies, unusual puzzles, and arcade minigames

  • Secrets that can drastically alter the gameplay

Are you ready to take on the challenge? Well? Are you? I'm waiting. I don't have all day, you know.
