One Upon Light is a monochromatic top-down puzzle game with a photophobic protagonist. Trapped in a world of shifting shadows and light, players manipulate objects in the environment to create a path of shadows and avoid contact with light. The game utilizes unique mechanics revolving around the central theme of light and shadow. The protagonist’s past is incrementally hinted at as the player progresses through the game.

Hi there! Thanks for commenting. Sorry for taking such a long while to reply, we've been very busy working on finishing the game.

All the shadows in our game are real time and if you were referring to the way we froze the shadows on the ground, you're right that it's a heavily scripted process.

Good luck on your own game!

Thank you! Unity has been really kind to us, in some sense, perhaps ironically, we might not have made it without Unity. :)
