Light Fall is a 2D platformer that inverts the norms of the genre with the use of the Shadow Core – an ancient artifact used to create platforms beneath your feet, overcome obstacles, and protect yourself from the dangers that lie ahead. Venture deep into the forgotten world of Numbra and embark upon a quest to uncover the truth behind the disappearance of people across the land, and the links to your own mysterious past.

Inspired by games such as Super Meat Boy, Limbo, and Bastion, Light Fall offers a new concept of platforming merged with a beautiful silhouette art-style and an adventurous tale of intrigue.

Following a successful push on Steam Greenlight, Bishop Games is looking for support to get Light Fall to the finish line and has launched a kickstarter campaign, looking for $16,506, to complete the development (as well as console stretch goals).

Light Fall takes place in the Forgotten World of Numbra, a dangerous land completely shrouded in darkness. As you progress through your journey, you will realize that Numbra is the home of many strange creatures. Some will be your friends, some will be your foes. 

In search of clues about your mysterious past, explore the many regions of Numbra. Wander through the calm night of the Lunar Plain, venture into the Marshlands of Sorrow, face the exotic wildlife of the Vipera’s Forest and explore the Unknown Depths, where no man ever set foot.

In Numbra, one misstep is all it takes to meet a quick end. This harsh world is colossal and ancient; the entire continent permanently shrouded in darkness, lit only by the moon. Its inhabitants live and abide by a simple law: the strongest survive, while the weak are crushed.

That did not stop the Kamloops, a small and peaceful Nation, from leaving their homeland for Numbra. Exhausted from the constant wars between rival nations and trapped in the middle of an everlasting conflict, the Kamloops left everything behind. Everything but a hope for better days, a hope for peaceful solitude.

Following the steps of their ancestor, the legendary explorer Paddlewood, the Kamloops braved the sea and traveled into the night as he did 400 years ago. After a laborious journey, they finally reached the eerie Numbra. As they landed on the dark and cold shore of the Lunar Plain, they suddenly realized their life would never be the same. The warm and sunny days of their homeland were forever lost, and their lives would be filled with constant hardship.

At first, they struggled mightily, but eventually they adapted and established their new home. Despite often being perceived as weak, the Kamloops had two strengths of their own; their cunning and their piety. Without the manpower and desire to participate in the wars waged by their neighbors, the Kamloops had always relied on clever traps and barriers to protect their homeland and defend themselves. Their devotion is also very strong, so strong in fact, that their Gods have the power to manifest themselves in the world. 

The Kamloops worship several different Gods, each and every one of them a powerful prodigy in his own right. For generations, these celestial beings have vowed to protect their people. 

Alas, something vile stirs in the dark night of Numbra. Mysterious crystals have appeared out of nowhere and scraped the entire landscape. Houses and entire villages are being razed to the ground. With the world crumbling once again, will the Gods answer their people's plea one more time?
