Nihilumbra is a traditional platformer where you take control of Born as he moves and leaps through various levels. Players must steer clear of several enemies, as there's initially no means to fight them. The game is split into five distinct worlds that Born traverses. In each world, the player receives a new color, allowing them to paint the environment by tapping the screen, altering how the surroundings behave.
Nihilumbra tells the tale of Born, a being forged from the Void, the endless emptiness. When he leaves the Void behind and steps into the world, he begins a long journey to understand and harness the colors around him, granting him incredible powers. But the Void, from which he fled, is relentless in its pursuit, consuming all in its wake. As Born flees for survival, the Void follows, erasing the beautiful lands he explores, leaving only desolation in its path.
