I Guide the Sun

A side-scrolling puzzle adventure by Dad with art by Ben (age 6) and Syd (age 9)

Developed by the all-star Nerd Sammich team of Daddy, Ben (age 6), and Syd (age 9), “I Guide the Sun” is a side-scrolling, obstacle avoiding, fast-paced adventure featuring all original artwork and story developed by little Ben and his big sister Syd.

You are “Little Flame”, tasked with guiding the Sun through the month of January’s 31 progressively more difficult days. Use your wit and reflexes to maneuver through spikes, pitfalls, moving platforms, hail, movable blocks, warp mirrors and much more.

In Syd’s words, “Little Flame wants to help the sun get to her castle and he has challenges along the way and you have to get through obstacles. He’s very caring. He doesn’t want the sun to get hurt and wants to help her home.”

But little Ben, what’s wrong with Sun? Why does she need Little Flame’s help?

“The Sun loves her book, so she doesn’t really pay attention.”

Makes sense to us!

Use Little Flame’s double jump ability to reach high places, trigger switches, and leap through illusionary blocks, but don’t fall off the screen!

Having trouble completing a level? You can use Speed Boosts to help get you through more quickly, which are obtained by collecting difficult to reach stars in each level. Every star collected also earns you an achievement!

Complete all 31 levels, guide the Sun to her castle, and save the day!

You can also purchase an upgrade to the ad-free version in the in-app purchase menu.
