Lantern Wayfarner is a 2D platformer about lighting beacons with your lantern and facing the shadow beast Murkmaw.

About the Game

The bell has fallen silent and a thick, creeping murk has swallowed the land. Only one traveler still carries a light. Take up the lantern and become the Lantern Wayfarer to bring the beacons back to life. Gloom wisps and shadow creatures stand in the way as you light every beacon and find the waylamps that save your progress. At the end of each world, the giant shadow beast Murkmaw awaits.

How to Play

Run, jump, wall-jump, and dash across dangerous platforms. Spirit platforms only appear inside your lantern's glow, so use your light wisely. Holding the flare scouts the darkness ahead and pushes back gloom wisps and shadow creatures, and you can stomp your enemies. Light every beacon and find the waylamps that save your progress, then face Murkmaw at the end of each world.

Controls

Arrow keys or A and D move. Space, W, or Up jumps. Shift or X dashes. Hold the flare key to use the lantern. On mobile, use the on-screen buttons.
