Here is an overview of the game, via its store pages:
About
This puzzle platformer follows Selene, a young girl capable of absorbing and emitting light from special flowers to activate mechanisms, illuminate paths, and subtly adjust certain elements of her surroundings. By employing various types of floral light, you can charge objects and elevate platforms as you progress through environments that shift according to how you wield illumination. Each challenge demands ingenuity, while encounters with both friendly and hostile creatures lead to crucial decisions that will shape the fate of the entire planetary system.
Story
Born from the radiant flowers that sustain a network of planets rooted in a once-collapsed ancient tree, Selene can absorb and emit their light to preserve life. When the Dark One emerges, stealing the flowers’ glow and weakening the tree, Selene embarks on a journey to reclaim each lost spark. As she overcomes different landscapes and learns to manipulate various floral lights, her adversary’s suffering becomes clear. In the final, darkest world, Selene must choose: heal the Dark One or save the planetary system at her own cost.
