App summary

Discover the beautiful world of Nihilumbra and join Born on his adventure to find himself whilst trying to escape from his inevitable curse.
Born was created from the absolute nothingness: The Void. But somehow he separates himself from the black emptiness and appears in the world. This is where his long odyssey begins, in which he will learn how to use the colors around him to gain powerful abilities and transform the world.

To survive, Born will have to condemn the earth he walks to its inevitable obliteration by The Void...

Edit: I finally bought the game and it was well worth it. It's a great simple and beautiful game. I usually get frustrated with platformers on my phone but the controls, gameplay and difficulty are all very well made and balanced. I like the game and I want to buy the full version but the button to buy it doesn't work in the game.

Genuinely, this is my standards for games. Simple yet elegant and unique. It doesn't try too hard and it doesn't have a million features. It even has voice acting and captions for it. Though, the VA lacks emotion but you can see what they mean even without it. The controls are a little small but I personally love it, it's a small tinge of unique compared to huge ones. And the story telling is mysterious, doesn't give too much details at one go. Lots of love to the team behind this very game.

Super fun game. Calming, cool narrating voice, cool abilities, awesome art. My only complaint is that when I click "buy the full version" I don't get sent to a purchase option. Also, it is a little disappointing they only give you a taste before slamming you with a buy wall. Anyway, fix the link to purchase full game and I'll change my rating.
