⚡Make sure your graphics/hardware acceleration is turned on if you are playing in the browser.

  • Screen edges indicate available movement:
    • 🟩 Green - You can move in that direction
    • 🔴 Red - You cannot move in that direction
    • Tip: The edge of the screen corresponds to the movement key. For example:

    • But beware: using your glow consumes it.

💡Tip: Try to complete your run as quickly as possible, balancing your 'space' ability and steps taken!
⚠️ Beware: Everything has a cost.
♻️ Retry: If you run out of glow, retry!

🛠️ Known Issues:

• Crumb has temporarily lost some of his glow. It will be restored after the Jam.
• There is no built-in restart unless you finish the game or die. Refreshing your browser page helps if you want to quickly restart a run.

Please let us know if you discover any other bugs or issues.

🌐 Web Version: The web version will be available for a limited time during the game jam, after which we will only update the desktop and mobile app versions. We recommend playing the downloadable version.

The Story 📜

Deep within forgotten ruins, where shadows stretch endlessly and silence is broken only by distant echoes, a tiny rock named Crumb carries the last spark of light. His glow is his life... his only weapon against the encroaching dark... but every time he shines to illuminate the path, he burns away a piece of himself.

Navigate treacherous ruins filled with ancient traps, shifting puzzles, and relentless enemies hungry for Crumb’s glow. Each step is a choice: use your light to reveal hidden dangers, or conserve your strength to endure the trials ahead. The ruins will test your courage, forcing you to balance survival against sacrifice.

Can you guide Crumb through the darkness before his glow fades forever?

📝 Your Feedback Matters
