Mechanics

In Sparklite the action is shown from bird's eye view. The game world consists of five different biomes. Individual locations are generated procedurally, so they look a little different after each adventure and we have to face different challenges. As we travel through these locations, we are primarily concerned with fighting our opponents. Battles are dynamic, and in order to eliminate every opponent standing in our way (including powerful bosses), we must skillfully use the capabilities of our arsenal (which consists primarily of various types of firearms), as well as several gadgets. The latter also enable us to solve occasional environmental puzzles that block the road ahead, same goes for the unlockable skills of a levitating robot following the protagonist. Ada meets various inhabitants of Geodia, whose sympathy she gains by helping them deal with their troubles.

Game modes

Sparklite can be played solo or in a local co-op mode where the other player takes control of the aforementioned robot that accompanies the heroine.

Technical aspects

Visuals of Sparklite are created in pixel art technique. The whole thing adopts a colorful style reminiscent of the older installments of the The Legend of Zelda series.
