Hello folks I've been posting for quite some time now (mostly in the business section) but our team decided to share our game in development with you. Without further ado, we present you Light Fall. Light Fall is a 2D platformer with an immersive storytelling and some puzzle elements. Imagine if Super Meat Boy, Limbo and Bastion (3 of our fav games) had a child together... this is what we are trying to create with Light Fall. Alright that doesn't really make sense but whatever One of the thing that makes Light Fall unique is the Shadow Core. The Shadow Core is an artifact that is linked to the main character's body and mind. The player can control it at will and it will become your number one friend in this epic journey. The Shadow Core has many uses, here are a few of them: a mobile platform that can act as a double jump, a key to unlock gates, solve puzzles or disarm traps, a counterweight in some lever situations, a shield to block incoming projectiles and many more. Bishop Games is a 3-man cell and has been working on Light Fall since last March. It is our first game as a team, and as such, we are still pretty much inexperienced. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. We hope you guys enjoy it! We also have a playable alpha build that we presented at PAX South 2 weeks ago, if some of you are interested in trying the game just message me Cheers, Ben from Bishop Games

Hey guys, Just a quick update on Light Fall! We will be attending PAX East along numerous studios from Quebec/Montreal area under the 'Up North Indies' banner. Come say hi if you're there! For the PAX we made special Light Fall shirts introducing the game's narrator: Stryx the Grumpy Owl. Here are the shirts: We are also planning the launch of our Greenlight and Kickstarter campaigns pretty soon, so keep an eye out for that! Alot of video footage and trailers are coming up! Stay tuned!

I saw a video of this game from PAX south recently. Looks really cool, and I love the shirt! Best of luck to you guys! IGN did an article on you guys, and they really liked your game. I can't wait to play it myself.

Hey guys! We have some neat stuff to share with you today. We finally added our in-game narrator INTO the game. You could hear him before, now you can see him! Welcome Stryx, the grumpy Owl. Also, we are leaving for PAX East tomorrow and for the occasion we would like to share our recent build with you all. You can download our first 2 levels here. Any type of feedback is appreciated, as it is our first game as a team and we are far from experts! Thanks! LINK: http://bishopgames.com/light-fall-early-demo-available-for-download/Hope you have as much fun playing it as we have making it! Cheers, - BEN

Hello everyone! We just came back from PAX East a few days ago, what an amazing show and experience. Much bigger than PAX South. Here's a little update on Light Fall: we have been Greenlit and therefore accepted on the Steam Store at release in just 11 days! We also posted a PAX recap on our blog, in case anyone is intrigued or interested in this type of convention: http://bishopgames.com/pax-east-recap/Cool pictures inside. Has anyone tried our build? Did you like it? We're looking for feedback so do not be shy if you have something in mind! Cheers, -Ben

Hello everyone. Today, we are proud to announce that Light Fall enters the micro-transaction era! To enhance the gameplay and the experience for our players, the Shadow Core will now have charges that are time-gated. It means that after 3 uses, the player will have to wait 10 minutes to use it again. But fear not, you will now be followed in-game by the e-Shop fireflies that will sell Shadow Elixirs. For only 10,99$, you will be able to use the Shadow Core without limits for 3 hours! Here's a screenshot of the e-Shop fireflies in action: Cheers!

Thanks for the kind words! And no you don't have to actually kill it . The fight will be a puzzle-theme with many things going on simultaneously.
