Specimen 01 / Kept under glass

Gloam

Insula pendens, with Ember

An island kept in a bell jar, in a museum after closing. Connect a Solana wallet, take one plot inside the jar and set lanterns to catch Ember as it drifts past. Every plot shares the same jar, and Ember gathers slowly.

    Field notes

    Everything in the jar follows the same four steps. The island runs on Ember, a score you gather from your plot.

    1

    Connect a Solana wallet

    Phantom, Solflare and Backpack work. You sign a one-time message to prove the wallet is yours. Gloam never asks for a transaction or your seed phrase.

    2

    Take a plot

    Pick an open tile inside the jar. Each wallet holds one plot, and a hand net comes with it.

    3

    Keep a night watch

    Ember only gathers while you are on watch. A watch runs 8 hours, then you come back and start the next one.

    4

    Build and upgrade

    Spend Ember on lanterns, stills, a moth lamp and ember kilns. Upgrade the plot for more ground. Each repeat of a structure costs more than the last.

    Ember is a score, not a coin. It stays inside Gloam. It has no cash value and cannot be withdrawn, sold, traded or sent to any wallet. It is used for structures, plot upgrades and the register.
