Summer's here, and with it comes the buzzing nuisance of flies. In Through the Night, you step into the tiny, eight-legged shoes of a spider tasked with bringing peace back to the night by eradicating these pests.

This casual action platformer, developed and published by Yihu Team, offers a straightforward yet engaging experience.

The core gameplay loop is simple: use your left mouse button to control your spider and dispatch enemies. However, don't get too caught up in the hunt; you'll need to skillfully navigate around various obstacles that litter the terrain.

Your mission is to find and consume ten flies to advance to the next level. Each successful consumption brings you closer to restoring tranquility, but beware – various enemies lurk, ready to shorten your spider's lifespan.

With only three chances, losing all your lives means starting the challenge all over again.

For those who enjoy a competitive edge, Through the Night encourages speed. Eating ten flies in the shortest possible time will earn you a higher score, and you're invited to upload your points to see how you stack up against others.

It's a race against the clock to achieve the ultimate summer high score.
