Faerie Afterlight is a 2D fantasy action game that has players simultaneously controlling Kimo and Wispy as they explore Lumina’s infested caverns, deep seas, and ghostly cities to reclaim the scattered, broken shards of Light. More information can be found in the following overview:
Inspired by Indonesian philosophy and folk art, Faerie Afterlight is a beautifully stylized 2D Metroidvania game filled with an abundance of heart, courage, camaraderie, and a delightful soundtrack that perfectly complements the game’s lush world.
Players will take simultaneous control of Kimo and Wispy as this unlikely and inseparable duo ventures deep into Lumina’s infested caverns, plunges into its deep seas, and explores its ghostly cities to reclaim the scattered, broken shards of Light, bringing balance back to the world. Along the way, the pair will solve puzzles, befriend locals, engage and enchant enemies, and face off against fierce Titans to gain powerful new abilities that will grant them greater access to Lumina!
Key Features
- Environment Manipulation – Use Wispy’s abilities to move platforms, walls, and even solve puzzles while Kimo bounces and repels off each surface.
- Friend or Foe – Establish friendships with the natives of Lumina. Some – but not all – enemies can also be befriended.
- Myriad Terrains – Hidden doors, secret nooks, and covered passages abound. Unlock every inch of this vast world’s forests, cerulean seas, and graceful ruins.
- Grow Stronger – Overcome corrupted Titans to gain powerful new abilities and be granted access to new areas of Lumina. Cling to walls with Spider’s Legs, dash with the Beetle’s Horn, and more!
