LAMPMOTH

The garden has gone dark, and the shadows are hungry. You are a lampmoth, a tiny creature carrying the last light. Survive 12 minutes until dawn.

Your weapons fire on their own, so your job is to fly. Weave through ever-thicker swarms, gather the pollen motes they drop, and grow your light into a storm of embers, lightning and sunbeams. Every level up offers 3 gifts of light. Choose well, because no two runs build the same way.

Features

- Fast roguelite survival. Runs last 5 to 13 minutes, built for "just one more night". The First Night goes easy on newcomers early on, then catches up.

- 6 weapons and 9 charms, each with up to 5 upgrade levels: Ember Dart, Petal Orbit, Lantern Pulse, Firefly Chain, Seeker Fireflies, Sunbeam, and more.

- 3 bosses: the Wick-Eater, the Hollow Owl, and the final battle against The Long Night at dawn.

- Elites, swarm events and treasure chests keep every minute tense.

- Permanent progression. Spend the Glow from every run on 10 upgrades (30 levels in total) and unlock 4 playable moths, each with its own starting weapon and stats. The end-of-run screen shows exactly what your Glow just unlocked.

- 6 difficulty tiers. Beat the night to unlock darker nights with stronger foes and bigger rewards.

- Plenty of juice. Screen shake, hit flashes, crits, slow-motion finishes, glowing eyes in the dark, and a sky that slowly warms toward sunrise.

- Original synthesized soundtrack and sound effects whose music builds with the danger.

- Plays anywhere. Keyboard, mouse or touch (floating thumbstick). Phones work in portrait or landscape, each with its own layout and big touch targets.

- Settings that stick. Music and sound volume, screen shake, reduced flashes and damage numbers, all saved in your browser.
