About the Game

日月谜书 MidnattsSol is a single-player 2.5D puzzle adventure game where players control both the Sun and the Moon—two characters whose roles have been mysteriously reversed. In a surreal world of environmental collapse and inverted time, they must collaborate, adapt, and explore together to restore cosmic harmony.

🔸 Dual-character Puzzle Solving
Switch between Sun and Moon—each bound to opposite conditions. The Sun exists only in shadow, while the Moon walks only in light. Use their complementary skills to overcome spatial challenges.

🔸 Narrative-driven World
Unfold a poetic story told from the perspective of children in a broken world. Discover the consequences of careless stewardship of time and nature.

🔸 Themed Chapters
Explore 4 hand-crafted chapters, from chaotic cities and tilted offices to time-looped forests and upside-down archives. Each level introduces new mechanics and collaborative logic puzzles.

🔸 Unique Mechanics

  • Push-pull puzzle mode

  • Time inversion logic

  • Space flipping & gravity rotation

  • Light/dark dual-world traversal

🔸 Art & Sound
Enjoy painterly visuals with expressive line art and textured environments. Accompanied by ambient soundscapes that enhance the surreal experience.

🔸 No Combat, No Microtransactions
This is a peaceful, story-rich exploration game with no enemies or battles. One-time purchase, full offline experience.

  • Keyboard and controller fully supported

  • Character switch, push/pull modes, exploration and puzzle interface navigation
