A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Color the blank world as a tiny spirit, and light up those who are in need of your help. Guide them back to their homes, back to their loved ones.

Each level introduces a different task: following fragmented footprints to find a lost duckling, guiding a lost fox back to its family, and helping a whole flock return to its nest.

Heartfully handcrafted, Spirit of Light is a reflective short game about offering a helping hand calmly.

Playtime: 10-15 minutes.
Supports keyboard and controller input.

Really beautiful game! Impressive art style and aesthetics plus art tech. Lovely soothing music, altho a bit repetitive. My only minor complaint would be getting through your beautiful level design felt a little staggered due to the main mechanic getting a bit repetitive. Nevertheless such a lovely experience! thank you

Thank you for the feedback! We‘re going to explore further mechanics to keep the gameplay interesting, as we‘re planning to expand this game beyond this game jam 🐤🐤

Thank you so much 🩵

I loved the concept and the art is really beautiful. Also, works flawlessly on Linux (Debian 13, Trixie), thanks for the native build ^^
