Witchfire: How to Level up

While killing enemies won’t bring your level up per se, they are very important for the process. You see, in Witchfire, leveling up is a matter of investing. What are you investing? After killing enemies you will notice some red sparks that you get to absorb or even pick up. This is called witchfire, which acts as a currency. Once you have collected enough currency during your runs, you will be ready to level up.
