Alight in the Dark

Alight in the Dark is a reverse bullet hell survival game with a strategic ability and equipment system.




Players have limited inventory space and must choose items wisely. The game features side levels for a change of pace and rewards for completing challenges.




This game offers a fresh start each playthrough, but with permanent unlocks (characters, upgraded stats) for an advantage. It also has a permanent progression system where players earn souls for unlocking base stats.




Players use abilities and equipment to survive against relentless attacks and make strategic decisions using the elements of fire, earth, water, air, light, and shadow. Player choice is crucial and decision making is paused per choice. The game is set in a world where humanity underwent a "revolution of faith," resulting in the split of light into these elements.
