About The Sun For The Vampire

The Sun for the Vampire is a puzzle platformer from EyesTeam about a vampire with one goal: see daylight for the first time. Getting there means working through room after room of a dim castle, pushing crates and drowsy guards out of the way, throwing levers to open doors, and tracking down the keys that actually let you leave a level.

The pace is deliberate rather than twitchy. Most rooms are small, self-contained puzzles — figure out which box goes where, which guard needs shoving aside, and which gap only your bat form can cross, then execute it. Rushing a room usually just walks you into a trap you'd have spotted by looking first.

Controls

  • Left / Right arrow (or A/D): Move.
  • Up arrow (or W), held: Transform into a bat and fly.

Tips

  • Guards aren't just obstacles to dodge — you can push them like crates, which often clears a path faster than sneaking around.
  • Locked doors need a key first. Scout a room for its key before committing to the exit.
  • Save bat flight for gaps plain platforming can't reach; it's built for crossing distance, not general movement.
  • Traps are usually visible before you commit to a jump. A few seconds of looking beats a restart.

It suits players who like a slower, puzzle-first platformer over anything reflex-heavy — closer to a light castle-heist puzzle than an action game.

The Sun For The Vampire FAQ

How do I turn into a bat in The Sun for the Vampire?
Hold the Up arrow (or W) while standing on solid ground to transform and fly. It's the way past several of the castle's wider gaps.
What do the guards do?
Guards block routes through the castle, but they can be pushed like crates instead of only avoided, which opens up alternate paths through a room.
Do I have to collect every coin?
No, coins are optional extras for score. Only keys are required to unlock doors and reach a level's exit.
How many levels does it have?
Around 30 puzzle-platform levels set inside the same castle, each built around a different combination of levers, guards and gaps.
