THANKS, LIGHT. Out Now! A First-Person Puzzle Game Where Light Turns Shadows into Solid Objects.

[Date October 15, Hong Kong] Game Source Entertainment (GSE) is thrilled to announce that THANKS, LIGHT., the first-person 3D puzzle-platformer developed by South Korean indie developer Lightersgames, is now officially available on PlayStation®5, Steam, and Epic Games.

Centered on the spatial manipulation of shadow and substance, the game empowers players to wield a flashlight that seamlessly transforms objects between 2D shadows and 3D physical forms. Shine a flashlight on a flat square painted on the floor and it unfolds into a staircase. Take the light away from a towering pillar blocking your path, and it folds back into a shadow and disappears.

 

Step into the atmospheric liminal space, defy dimensional boundaries with your imagination, and experience a mind-bending journey today!

Comment from Lightersgames

“We wanted to build puzzles where players don't learn the rules one line at a time from text, but arrive at the solution naturally, through observing and analysing. Players who already know the genre will find the later stages growing deeper and demanding real application; those coming to it for the first time can take their time and learn one piece at a time."

— Heebeom Jeong, CEO, Lightersgames”

 

 

Every shape has a truth behind its face——

THANKS, LIGHT. marks the debut release from South Korean indie studio Lightersgames. Positioned squarely alongside first-person puzzle-platformers like Portal, Superliminal, Viewfinder, and The Talos Principle, the game introduces a deceptively simple mechanical premise: Under illumination, a silhouette transforms into a tangible 3D object. When the light is absorbed, 3D objects are folded seamlessly back into a flat, two-dimensional form. There are no lengthy tutorials here. Instead, you must rely on observation and reasoning, approaching problems from different angles and experiment until the solution reveals itself. Immerse yourself in the puzzle-solving experience and master the rules of the world of THANKS, LIGHT.ent angles and experiment until the solution reveals itself. Immerse yourself in the puzzle-solving experience and master the rules of the world of THANKS, LIGHT.

 

The game has also been showcased at Gamescom and Tokyo Game Show in both 2025 and 2026, and was selected for Thinky Games' Cerebral Puzzle Showcase 2025. Press Play Media (UK) called it 'equal parts mind-bending and elegant, rewarding experimentation and spatial insight rather than simple trial and error.

 

The free demo, rated Very Positive by players, remains available on Steam. Here, light, shadow, dimension, and perception intertwine, hinting at deeper truths waiting to be uncovered.
