About the Game

Story

A newborn rabbit is born in a world of reptiles and insects. A king is found lying in his own cold blood. The world is changing, and you have been entrusted by your ancestors to bring direction to the creatures in it.

Brighter than Burning presents a world of history, personality, and charm. Unravel what you--a rabbit--are doing in a world filled with cold-blooded creatures and discover that not everybody is who they first appear to be.

Gameplay

A fast-paced running-focused platformer inspired by classic side-scrollers. Gameplay includes sprinting through levels, jumping off enemies in the air, and avoiding various hazards. Brighter than Burning will present a number of different levels in a variety of worlds, including a hazy swamp, a village carved of stone, a forest filled with dinosaurs, and more!

Part 1 will include 10 levels in two separate worlds.

Art

The lush environments in Brighter than Burning are drawn by hand and inspired by the beauty of nature. Each animation is drawn traditionally frame-by-frame.
