Description
LUCIOLE is a 2D platformer developed in Unity. Blending narrative, atmosphere and puzzles, this small game is a metaphor for the passing of time and the transition to adulthood. A personal project I'm currently working on.
Story
Luciole is our inner light. Screams, tears, pain, hatred, fear... all the negative emotions and hardships of life have weakened it, until we feel a bit lost, or completely lost. But this little light isn't entirely extinguished—it fights within us, somewhere, alongside us, to find its light again.
Game objective
Progress through levels to recover parts of your lost light and grow. Use your light to protect yourself from threats, reveal environmental elements, and find your way through dark surroundings.
Gameplay
Inspired by 'magic lamp' books, LUCIOLE features simple platforming mechanics based on shadow and light. Focused on atmosphere and emotions, the game oscillates between childlike cuteness and horror.
