About This Game

The world has ended. There is no hope. No new beginning. Only the survivors. DEADLIGHT follows the journey of Randall Wayne, a man searching for his family across Seattle during the aftermath of a 1980s event that has decimated life on earth. This visually stunning Cinematic Survival Platformer will challenge you to run, jump, climb, and struggle for your life as you look for answers and the ones you love.

Key Features:

A beautiful deadly world where a misstep means death. Sharpen your surviving instinct and learn to turn the environment from foe to ally. In this hopeless world, an ordinary man, Randall Wayne, will reveal himself as a natural born survivor.
Think. Mindless shooting is never a good idea: there are much more walking corpses than bullets. Be smart and avoid direct confrontations whenever you can.
A suggestive world of darkness. 3D highly detailed models and environments mixed with 2D sidescroller old school gameplay to create a vintage 2.5D Cinematic Platformer. Unable to escape from the horror of this dying world, Randall Wayne's journey will lead him to Seattle, in a strange search beyond his own survival.
HD graphics that enhance the immersion and atmosphere of a dead world
New NIGHTMARE difficulty mode from the 80s. Totally rad!
Tons of extras, making of videos, unreleased concept art and more!

Amateurishly developed game. A lot of basic game features that should go into any game are omitted.

If you had the option to remap your controller, the user could correct this programming mistake. Unless you know exactly what to do ahead of time, you will die die die, trial and error trial and error until it isn't fun and you yawn and play a better developed game from another more professional studio. It isn't a brain/puzzle thing, it is a reaction, get used to clunky controls so I mess up in other games, and I have done this many times kind of thing. Also, there are controls you won't use often. So you won't develop the muscle memory to use those controls all of the surprise sudden. Any good game developer knows about this phenomenon and pro...
