01 · The Concept

A lamplighter in a sunken city

You merge glowing sea relics and creatures to relight a sunken city, while an ancient god sleeps beneath it.

The name works two ways: the wake a diver leaves in deep water, and the god that must not wake.

ToneCozy with a hint of dread

FormatMobile, portrait 9:16

02 · The Sunken City

Nareth sank in a single night

A thousand years ago the coral city was pulled down to cover Vor'Thallun, the Dreamer Below, an elder god as large as a mountain range.

Living dreamlanterns sang the god a lullaby. As the old keepers died out, the lanterns went dark.

The Dreamer has begun to stir.

03 · The Hero

Mira Kell & Pip

A confident 25-year-old salvage diver in an oversized brass helmet that belonged to her grandmother, the last Lantern Keeper.

She finds Pip, a newborn glowfish hatchling that can merge with other sea creatures.

06 · The Descent

Shallow to deep

1 · Glimmer Shallows – broken spires and kelp forests
2 · Coral Bazaar – home of the Coral Folk
3 · The Drowned Cathedral – the Choir's stronghold
4 · Trench of Whispers – tentacles in the dark
5 · The Cradle – the Dreamer's moon-sized eye

07 · The Dreamer Below

Always bigger than the frame

Vor'Thallun is only ever shown in part. At the bottom of the world its closed eye is the size of a moon.

The twist: the god is a misunderstood dreamer. Its dreams keep the coral glowing.

08 · Style Guide

Cute-creepy cosmic epic

Stylized 2.5D platformer art: chunky silhouettes, thick navy outlines on characters, layered parallax depth. Light comes only from bioluminescence and lanterns: pink means safe, violet means magic or danger.
