Game Description
In Afterglow, you play as a high-jumping hero (using your WASD keys) intent on bringing light to Scurendale Castle. You must use the tools at your disposal: your charge-jump, bunsen burners, buttons, ovens, and even ducks to make your way through the castle in as little time as possible, lighting torches on your way to open the magical furnaces that transport you around the castle. But beware, sleeping golems threaten to block your path...

How does your game tie into the theme?
You jump around lighting up torches in a dark castle, the darkness limiting your visibility and contributing to the mood.

This is really cool!
The movement feels polished and snappy. I love the minimalism of the level design and your art style.
Great job! I hope you continue developing this and add more levels.

Warm regards!

This was a really nice experience! The movement is great and the art style is minimal but also really super detailed somehow.

good job, that's a nice and enjoyable game! I'll play again to complete the run :)

Great work! That was a very well made game. Everything from the camera movement, sound design, and movement mechanics. It was fun to play :)

Very well made game, I liked all the sound effects that you added and it felt nice to control. Also, how could you make me do that to the ducks D:

Note: Some of the spike hitboxes seemed to be broken in the second level.

Thanks! Hope it wasn't too short
