Little lights was a game I decided to make based on a different project called WonkeyBoard which is a one-key keyboard. The Game was built around the idea of a single input. So everything from menus to gameplay to fighting had to involve a single button input.

At the time I made the game I also wanted to work more with Unity’s 2D  Lighting, so as the title suggests I worked and played a lot with light within the game. The core gameplay was taking your little ball of light through the world collecting fireflies and levelling up. Levelling up added new enemies and different challenges. With an end goal of defeating the boss at the end of the world.

The entire movement of the game was used by pressing space. Pressing space would make your ball of light move up and forward. By timing the presses and momentum of the ball of light you can swirl around the sky.

I added in UI elements like a liquid flask for health and score and parallax scrolling to add depth.
