Emberwake - An Incremental Story Game
A downloadable game for Windows
Hey there! This is an ambitious project I am calling Emberwake. I am attempting to combine the Incremental and Story genres into a 3D game where you both need to increment, AND explore!
You play as a blacksmith, recently woken by a disembodied voice. You are instructed to relight the fire in the world! You must face the darkness using simple embers as light as you explore, awakening Fire Sprites on your way to help you collect the light!
You can also join my discord to help with playtesting if you like the game!

!! NOTE!! This is a very early build of the game to iron out some core concepts before I dive deep into world building! This is not the final product! I am always actively looking for playtesters to help me create the game. Thanks!

Very atmospheric yet a bit unsettling to play always made me expect I'd see something slide away when I threw an ember into the darkness. I really like what you're going for here it has the potential to be a real gem of a game I look forward to seeing how it grows.
It does feel a bit frustrating to find the light sources as it is, they are hard to spot even when throwing embers, but increasing light ranges would definitely ruin the atmosphere. Maybe the terrain can help a little bit more in guiding you towards them.
I suggest adding a hint for ember stacking I'm sure many players will miss that you can just buy a bunch for longer effective light duration.
Good luck with your project!
