Candleman was created as a unique character that deserved a unique story. The development team spent a full month exploring every narrative possibility before they began more concrete game development. The theme of Candleman focuses on “The Limit of Ability”. While he has some special abilities that ordinary candles don’t have, like running and jumping, as well as burning his wick for up to 10 seconds, he wants to see how far he can go. Candleman’s aspiration is to become a lighthouse and serve as a beacon for others, and this game is about discovering the strengths and limits of your own abilities, which makes Candleman a perfect representation for ordinary people.

Candleman On Xbox One Today
In Candleman, players control a lone candle as he travels through nine chapters of mythical adventures, with levels that become increasingly difficult to explore and navigate. While Candleman drips precious candlewax on the floor from his illuminating wick, he gains one major advantage — the decreased weight allows him greater maneuverability and jumping height to leap over obstacles. So, you’ve got to be aware of dangers in the dark beyond just deadly falls and running out of candlelight to surpass raving furnaces, bottomless depths, menacing ghosts, massive machinery and more throughout this journey to find the distant light.
