Ring of Radiance

Great Crafter! Please use Magiluminance to help the heroes! ​​RING OF RADIANCE​​ – A Pixel Art Adventure to Craft Magic in a Fantasy World!

As a finalist for ​​"Best Innovation"​​ at Taptap Game Jam 2024, this indie gem features:
​​• Pixel Art Style:​​ Retro yet refined visuals that evoke gaming’s golden age.
​​• Light Sandbox Experience:​​ Freedom to shape the story—every choice alters the game’s path and endings.
​​• Puzzle & Strategy:​​ Design furnaces using light refraction to forge absurdly powerful magic rings for heroes.

​​Design Philosophy:​​
RING OF RADIANCE blends pixel art, magic rings, and sandbox creativity. Instead of a sprawling world, you start in a humble enchantment shop, uncovering mysteries through interactions with heroes.

​​Your Mission:​​
As the forge master of an enchantment workshop, craft radiant rings by designing magical furnaces. You don’t control light directly—you manipulate the furnace’s environment. Each hero’s unique backstory triggers dynamic furnace challenges, demanding creative problem-solving and iterative design.
