A downloadable game for Windows

The tutorial is timed, so be ready to start when you click play!

You are the last guardian of the sun, and your job is to safeguard her journey up into the sky. But the moon has other plans, and will send hordes of creatures to stop you.


Rising sun is an action platformer where your job is to guide the sun into the sky. Dash your way through enemies to ascend, but make sure you don't fall behind, as you have no powers without the sun.

This game was created in 48 hours for the GMTK 2021 GameJam under the theme Joined Together.

Instructions

Note: You can only dash when you are within the radius of the sun. If you get too far away from the sun, you won't be able to dash anymore! The flames above your head tell you how many dashes you have available.

The closer you are to the sun, the more dashes you get.

MOVE:      A/D to move.

DASH:       Click and drag anywhere to dash

ATTACK: Click once to attack.

HEALTH: You take damage when the sun is attacked!

RECHARGE: Dash through enemies to recharge your dash. Your dash also gets recharged when landing on a platform.

Once you get the hang of moving the character around it is a really neat and fun game! It's pretty challenging and the art/animation is really cute. I love the pixel art style. Very neat concept!
