Season 7 RELEASED! Somehow STILL FREE (November 2023)

Season 7 has been RELEASED!
Remember how fantastic Season 5 and Season 6 were? Well they sucked. They just bought us time to create Season 7. The only thing better than Season 7, is this video I created showcasing Season 7.

Over on TubeYube, the charming and effortlessly cool Bleachpie8 has been playing Endlight. If you want someone to play Endlight for you, complete with massive spoilers, you best watch the king. He's averaging about an hour a season, which is both amazing and concerning.

Season 5 Let's Play

Important Reminder
"The Right To Replay" event will be held December 9. When you open Endlight that day you'll get ONE chance to beat the ONCE-A-YEAR challenge. Should you succeed you'll be rewarded the greatest gift you've ever gotten: The right to replay Endlight. Mark you calendars because if you miss it, you miss it.

On Reddit, I posted Part 4 of our ongoing Endlight sales series.
Spoiler 1: Endlight has sold a total of 139 copies.
Spoiler 2: No refunds this month!



Endlight was created using Unity.
Unity, of course, died this month.
Rage inspired me to make this comic series,
which I was forced to end early when Unity CEO john Riccitiello unexpectedly "retired".
All the Unity board members remain, meaning things are unlikely to get better.

7 Seasons released!
13 to go!
Season 8 releases Dec. 1, 2023.
Trailer expectations are high.

Matheus Viana created this TikTok about Endlight.
It's snappy, fast paced, and in Portuguese.
Hopefully he liked it because it's got 15,000+ views.
