Shadow of The Torchbearer

The password is "return".

A mythic game where you carry a stolen flame through a burnt world, facing shadowed figures and cryptic trials to reach the heart of what was lost.

This game is an artifact of a true series of events which blurred the line of fiction and reality for the Torchbearer.

Made originally as part of a gift which the intended recipient did not wish to receive.

All drawings were made with charcoal, all music was composed and all code was written by the Torchbearer in exactly 42 days.

Made in LOVE (2D)
