A downloadable Photophore

Description

Photophore is an arcade game that oscillates between shooting, brick-breaking and reflection. An original point proposed by the gameplay is based on the need to manage one or several projectiles.

These projectiles can be used to activate objects, destroy others or inflict damage on enemies. Once launched, the player no longer has control over them: if the projectiles bounce off most of the elements of the scenery, they can also be controlled by numerous elements to be discovered and mastered or... destroyed.

You will therefore have to time, synchronise, aim, shoot and make sure you recover your projectiles to progress and reach the end of each level.

Story

This is the story of a world. A world where all light has been swallowed up. A world destroyed and fragmented, annihilated by a fatal omnipotence. Everything could have ended there... But there was one last glimmer of hope. One last glimmer. A precious fragment of light. A spark that will awaken a Photophore.

This is the story of a new world recomposed. A world recomposed in the form of a challenge, as if a return to normalcy had been a possibility from the very beginning of its alleged destruction. This first photophore and the luminous fragments scattered throughout the spaces are proof of this.
