Dark Light V1.0 Has Arrived!
We are excited to announce we have completed the early access development of Sci Fi-horror Metroidvania, Dark Light, and officially launched v1.0 of the game.
We want to take the opportunity to thanks every one who supported us during the EA stage. We appreciated constructive feedback, which helped us to shape the game. We have finally made it after
4 years of hard work.
We are a small team of 3 based in Australia and Belgium. Dark light is the first game we developed together. We made many mistakes at early access stage, which we learned it the hard way.
For our returning players, we have listed out all features in our previous post:
