Design Statement
the track felt quiet and lonely to me, but with some warmth undereath, like something thats lost but still going (if that makes sense). i imagined a tiny light walking around this like frozen world and thats what became Luminance. my key design choice was making light your tool and story. your lantern is how you see and interact with the world. I kept the world dark and quiet on purpose. i wanted exploring to feel lonely but gentle. the ending turns the tracks mood around. you give your light away to wake the guardian and the whole world thaws into color again. im not too good at writing narratives, but i think i did alright!
