Dawn (itch) (Umbra)

My submission for the Brackeys' game jam 2020.1! The theme for this jam was holes, so naturally I looked into how I could twist the meaning of the word. A "hole" can refer to a "Small or unpleasant place." Going off of this, I decided to make a game about bringing light to a world, or a "hole," where there is none. Initially, it was inspired from some personal experiences, but as I created more of the game I realized that it was a story that many different people could relate to instead. 

Controls:

Click to move

A/D: Pan the camera

Instructions:

Move into the monuments and avoid the spheres. The monuments are the obelisk-like structures with beams of light emitting from them. Every time you touch a monument, you increase your Luminence by 1. Reaching a Luminence of 20 causes you to win. The spheres are "voids," which will kill you upon touch.
