What is Faerie Afterlight?

Faerie Afterlight is a single-player 2D action-adventure set in Lumina, a world inspired by Indonesian philosophy and folk art. You control Kimo and Wispy simultaneously to recover scattered shards of Light, solving puzzles, fighting or befriending enemies, and crossing caverns, seas, and ruins. Defeating bosses called Titans unlocks movement abilities that open new areas.
