What it is about
Through all the mirrored lantern's glass, and through a tidal maze, over the vicious ocean's wrath, the light reflects its gaze Upon that distant gloomy shore, the lighthouse bares it's rays, and watching me, who ventures near, Its light reflects its gaze An interloper on the beach, I've journeyed here despite, the ones I've heard that use this place, by gazing through the light ------ A LIGHT, REFLECTED is a solo micro game about the horrors found at a lighthouse.
