LURING - Light in the Darkness

MOTH LIGHT DUEL [2 levels!]

Protect your flame. Conquer the dark.

You are the last guardian of the light, trapped in an arena of eternal twilight. Two ancient spirits—the Luminescent Monarch and the Elder Phantom—have emerged to snuff out your ember.

In this fast-paced, 2D boss-battler, survival depends on more than just your aim. You must use your deployable Lure Lamp to distract your enemies, manipulating their spectral instincts to create an opening for your fiery projectiles.

⚠️This is just a prototype and idea! Let me know if you'd like to see something developed more seriously!

Features:

• Dual-Level Boss Challenge: Face off against two unique bosses with distinct flight patterns and aggressive AI.
• Strategic Lure Mechanics: Toss your lamp to baulk the boss's path or lure them into a trap.
• Fiery Fireball Combat: Unleash triple-shot bursts of yellow fire to incinerate the shadows.
• Dynamic Particles & Effects: Watch the arena come alive with embers, trails, and spectral boss death animations.
• Clean Pixel Aesthetic: Minimalist retro visuals focused on high-speed readability and movement.

Controls:

• Move: Arrow Keys / WASD
• Shoot: Mouse Click (Hold)

Can you keep the light alive, or will the moth be consumed by the dark?
