Description

Lightphobe is an asymmetrical cooperative multiplayer game where players can choose between defending the earth as a squad of well-armed soldiers or terrorizing their enemies as the ethereal skeletal creatures known as Lightphobes.

History

Lightphobe was created by Canadian solo developer, Allan Chew, a man who began his game development journey in 2018 with the hope of creating unique gaming experiences. Driven by a passion for creating new worlds for others to compete and explore in, as well as his own love of gaming; Allan had the bright idea of using light as a gameplay element, challenging players to simultaneously take advantage. After some time experimenting with different concepts, Lightphobe was born!
