Collect the glowing shards left by fallen shadows. Each level brings a choice of three upgrades. Shape a build that can hold back the next wave.
Make your stand.
Stand still for one second to plant an ember totem. Its pulses help hold the ground around you. Place your defenses, then move before the shadows surround you.
One more dawn
Every ember
