(2021AU-2-3) Don't Go Out!
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
In Don't Go Out you play as Wick, a fire wisp who is tasked with reviving the sun in a world taken over by darkness. As Wick, the player's goal is to make their way through a completely dark level where the only source of light is the light emitted by Wick. However, as time goes on Wick’s light will begin to die out. This is when players must reach the candle checkpoints. These checkpoints are stations where the player and Wick can take a break and recharge. Then when you are ready to continue the player can hop off the candle and continue until they reach the next checkpoint. Shoot or pass by enemies to be able to proceed through the level. Although, if the player can’t make it to the next checkpoint in time, players risk Wick’s flame going out resulting in a respawn to the last checkpoint.
This was a 6-week university-level student project, so please keep that in mind.
