Candleman

A 3D platformer where you're a candle with a 10-second burn timer. You can move, jump, and light yourself to see the path ahead, but every flicker drips wax and shortens your remaining life. The trick: you can't keep the flame going constantly. Darkness hides gaps, platforms, and hazards, so you'll ignite in quick bursts to scout routes, then snuff out and navigate blind. Each level ends at a distant blue light you're trying to reach. Puzzles revolve around rationing your burn time—waste it and you'll die before finding safe ground. The candle shrinks visibly as wax melts away, turning resource management into a literal countdown you can see. Works if you like platformers that make light itself a limited tool rather than a given.
