Cinderpeak

Carry the last flame up the mountainThe old beacon has gone dark. Someone has to carry a flame back up. That someone is Wren, a child from Lowmere, and the flame is Cinder: the last piece of the beacon's fire, riding on Wren's head, complaining about it, and able to throw the two of you through the air. Cinderpeak is a precision platformer. You run, jump, grab walls and dash. The dash comes back when you touch the ground, so every room is a question of where to spend it.

Rooms are short, a fall puts you back at the start of the room in a moment, and nothing is random. Ten chapters, each with its own ruleEvery chapter brings one new idea and then leans on it. Embers frozen in the ice give the dash back in mid-air. Storm lights throw you across the sky. Smoke is a wall to your legs and a road to a dash. Magma rises behind you. And there is more on the way up:caps that launch you, and stone that crumbles under your feetice with no grip, and walls only a dash can breakwind that carries you, fights you, lifts you or presses you downrune blocks that swap every time you dasha second dashsteam that lifts youA story that remembersCinder does not remember how the beacon went out.…
