🧩 THANKS, LIGHT. – Limited-Time Extended Demo Release

[h3]IT'S NOW ONLINE! PLAY IT B4 IT GOES AWAY![/h3]

To celebrate our participation in the Cerebral Puzzle Showcase,
we're releasing a special large-scale demo featuring the entire Chapter 1 and parts of Chapter 2—for a limited time only!

💡 Why are we showing so much content?

"THANKS, LIGHT." begins with a simple idea: "when light shines, shapes are revealed."
But the puzzles continue to evolve and build on that concept in various ways.
We wanted to showcase the versatility of this mechanic and the joy of our puzzle design to a wider audience.

We also wanted to offer assurance to those discovering our game for the first time,
and to hear your honest feedback.
We're constantly reflecting, tweaking, and polishing the experience every day.
Your thoughts truly mean a lot to us.

⚠️ This extended demo is only available for a limited time.

It may be scaled back or removed without notice, even before the showcase ends.
WE ARE A VERY SMALL INDIE TEAM FROM KOREA.
Releasing this demo is a huge decision and a very nerve-wracking one.
We need to make money from this project so we can make our next game ㅠㅠ
If too many people see it, we may be forced to take it down.
So don't miss your chance—come experience what the game has to offer!

🚧 Please note

Some story cutscenes and narration are still in development.
There are bugs, and many elements are still being refined.
But rest assured, we're aware of them and working hard to improve things quickly.

🙏 Thank you so much for playing.

If you enjoyed the game, please consider adding it to your Steam wishlist,
or join our Discord server to share your thoughts!
Your voice helps shape this game for the better.

🎉 THANKS, LIGHT. – Major Demo Update! (After 6 Months)

Hey everyone,

It’s been a while — and we mean it. After six months, the demo of THANKS, LIGHT. is finally back with a major update.
New content, better UX, improved mechanics — all here to give you a smoother, deeper puzzle experience.

🆕 Here’s what’s new:

• 5 brand new puzzle stages added to Chapter 1!
  
  
• Chapter 2 is now playable! Try out the new light absorption mechanic
  
  
• Improved story cutscenes (still work-in-progress, but a lot added!)
  
  
• Player movement speed boosted — no more crawling across the floor
  
  
• Cube interaction fixed — you won’t need to slam it on the ground anymore
  
  
• Improved UX and convenience tweaks
  
  
• And... countless other updates we honestly forgot after 6 months
  

This update marks a big step for our game. We’re still refining things, but your feedback is what keeps us going.
