Lamplighter
A Foddian Short-Hike-Alike about climbing a windy mountain by candlelight.
Carry a flickering candle up a cold desolate mountain using only one hand and your body to shield its flame from the billowing winds. Your enigmatic employer awaits you at the peak. The strange locals won't offer their assistance freely -- nor show any fondness for the man who awaits you atop the mountain -- but listen to what they have to say and they may help ease your journey.
Lamplighter was made for the 80th Godot Wild Jam.

Known Issues:
- Pause screen and settings menu/reload at checkpoint not working. This, unfortunately, may mean you need to reload the game if you get stuck in some game breaking fashion.
- Positional Audio is broken in the web build, but this shouldn't affect gameplay in any dramatic way.
- It is possible to get stuck in certain areas. Sorry!
