Cinderwake

Two minutes. One lantern. A growing swarm.

BetaBest on desktopArcadearcadecasualautomation-ready
Run from anywhere in CLI-Games$ cinderwake

Move through the swarm, gather embers and build a weapon combination while the battle keeps running.

Your lantern fires automatically. Move through a two-minute swarm, collect fallen cyan embers and grow a build from six gifts. Cinder fan adds bolts, Quick fuse fires faster, Halo cuts nearby enemies, Thunder blasts clusters, Long reach gathers embers and Second wind keeps you alive.

Gift choices never pause the fight. A fixed tray shows three distinct symbols; the highlighted gift equips after eight seconds. Choose another with 1, 2 or 3, take it immediately with Space, or cycle the automatic choice with X. Survive until dawn to win; the result screen shows your score and survival time.
