You are a witch trapped in a nightmare born from your greatest sin.
Kindling is a top-down action roguelite where you must break magical seals to escape a haunted forest. Navigate through darkness, wield fire magic against shadows, and uncover the truth across multiple attempts. Every death makes you stronger.
This is a focused slice of Kindling. Play through Layers 1–2 and face the Cindermite Queen with the current core mechanics and upgrade system.
Included (Demo):
Content: Layers 1–2 + first boss (Cindermite Queen)
Systems: All mechanics as implemented today; Ember Fragment upgrades persist across runs (demo build only)
Not Included (Demo):
Content beyond Layer 2 (later biomes, additional bosses/enemies, further narrative)
Media Note (Demo):
All trailers and screenshots on this page are captured from the demo build (Layers 1–2 and Cindermite Queen).
Sprint through a forest where visibility is everything. Place campfires to push back the shadows and reveal what lurks within. But light is temporary, and what finds you in the dark won't hesitate to kill.
There are no health bars here. Everything kills instantly. Your only protection is a magical shield that can save you once, then you're vulnerable until it recharges. Every encounter is life or death.
Collect ember fragments from fallen enemies. These pieces of power persist through death. Between runs, spend these fragments on permanent upgrades that fundamentally change how you play. Transform from prey to predator through careful choices.
Journey deeper into your nightmare, breaking the seals that bind you here. Discover hidden memories that reveal the truth of what happened. Each run brings new revelations and harder challenges.
Roguelite Progression: Every run contributes to permanent growth
Fast, Focused Sessions: Perfect for "just one more run"
Skill-Based Combat: Master positioning and timing when death is instant
Build Variety: Multiple upgrade paths create different play styles each time
Narrative Mystery: Piece together the truth across multiple attempts
Break the seals binding you to this nightmare. Uncover what you've done and decide if power is worth the price you've already paid.
Some sins echo forever.
