The Last Lightkeeper
🕯️ The Last Lightkeeper
The Last Lightkeeper is a tense 2D action-survival game that takes place entirely inside a single dark room.
Your lantern is the only thing keeping the shadows at bay and it’s slowly dying.
As the light shrinks, the room becomes more dangerous. Shadow creatures wait at the edges, stalking, watching, and rushing in the moment your lantern begins to fade. Collect scattered fuel to restore your glow, unleash a stun pulse, and push the darkness back for a little while.
The question isn’t if the darkness will take you.
It’s how long you can hold it off.

💡 About the Game
The Last Lightkeeper was created around the ONE ROOM theme: every action, every threat, and every second of survival happens within a single, claustrophobic chamber.
The game focuses on atmosphere, tension, and smart resource management.
No jumpscares just a slow, inevitable pressure as your world grows smaller and the shadows grow bolder.
