The Candles Breathe
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
A glimpse is all you can ever get, a brief glance into the world behind each door, behind each person's guarded eyes. Those worlds are not for you. Those doors are made to protect against you. But even if all the people of the Earth turn you away, you have no choice but to seek them out. You have no choice but to take what is rightfully theirs. You, the Wandering Vampire.

Cool
Very interesting concept, the different candle spirits and their symbols are so intriguing, and the brief glimpse into this world and its inhabitants. Wouldn't mind owning a candle like this myself.
I guess my only suggestion would be some sort of hint on how to unlock the other houses for those of us less clever.
(Hint: gotta not get your fill)
Love the Mythology part that unlocks after finishing the game, please include this in all your games in the future too ^^
