There Will Be Light is a cute puzzle game about a person and their fears and negative subconscious thoughts that inhabit them. As you progress, you dive deep down into your subconscious mind to fight those foggy thoughts and regain confidence in yourself.
Maybe in the end, your view of yourself, the world and all the problems you face may be a little more optimistic. Can anything really go wrong?
We created this game in a team of five developers in about five days for the "Brackeys Game Jam 2025.1" and published it on itch.io.
After the Game Jam, we continued working on There Will Be Light and uploaded the game on Steam.
There Will Be Light placed 33rd out of nearly 2200 submissions and was awarded 11th place in the audio category!
Puzzle mechanic: I programmed the the logic gate like puzzle system, including the smooth line movement and the processing of the logic gates. To interrupt the running process, I implemented a recursive mechanic to stop the process.
Movement system: I helped implement the player's movement system, making sure the movement felt smooth and elegant.
Sound design: I worked on the sound design by placing and programming the sounds in the game.
Final level: My job was to create the final level for the game, which plays a leading role in the story the game is telling.
Bug fixing and polishing: After the Game Jam, we put a lot of work into polishing and bug fixing to prepare the game for the Steam release.
