This is a submission for the Mini Jam #160. The theme was "Light" with the limitation "Speed is key".

The HTML5 version of this game should be seen as a laggy demo. Please use the native binaries for your platform if possible.


There were times...

When there was no Dark Mode.


In Haunted by the Light you flee into the darkness to finally receive your well deserved dark mode. But there is one clue: A Haunted Spectre of Light is haunting you.

Move as efficient as possible through this side-scroller to conquer all three biomes and make the little slime happy.

The source code of this game can by found at https://github.com/TheCheese42/haunted-by-the-light and https://github.com/TheCheese42/haunted-by-the-light-godot.


Good luck :)


Godot version

- For practice, I remade the game in Godot.

- It's now playable in the browser, but the performance is really poor.

- Instead of getting a speed penalty when jumping or moving up, sliding up a ramp will now temporarily slow you down, better matching the original "Speed is key" limitation.

- The Godot version's number is now 2.0.0.
