About the game

A story-driven vertical space shooter made by young, passionate devs. Play as EOX-375, a robot born of a fallen golden age. Journey into post-apocalyptic peril, avenge humanity against its instigator, and seek one unverified truth: the future need not follow set rules. What do we exist for?

Original Steam description

"Fleeting lights and shadows"is a Chinese-made, story-driven 3D vertical-scrolling space shoot 'em up. Inspired by works from someone's memory that have never been forgotten, the game casts you as EOX-375 — a specially modified robot. Through cinematic, film-editing-style 3D presentation, it unveils a grand worldview and the golden age of the story's past, plunges you into the dangers of a post-apocalyptic world, draws you into its conflicts, and ultimately lets you, representing all of humanity, take revenge on the one responsible for everything.

Traverse a collapsing human world amid near-endless battles, and in the end, seek an unverified possibility between the flowing light and fleeting shadows.

Our game is an STG space bullet-hell shooter. Your fighter can be customized across six parts: airframe, main weapon, sub-weapon, hardpoint mounts, core, and pilot. These special modules, each with its own abilities, combine into a simple and fluid gameplay loop that will watch your back every step of the way — even players brand-new to the genre can pick it up in no time!

The team will fully support modding — including community building, the game framework and related APIs, as well as conscious version control with advance notices — so that you can build the custom STG of your dreams.

Everything is possible!

With its vast worldview and narrative, you will walk through this world's transformations as a special storyteller — witness the indomitable and the idealistic who rise and fight against fate — and ultimately forge a new ending with your own hands: destroy the error that should never have threatened humanity, and fulfill your duty and mission.

ncredibly free cinematic camera work, the charm of real-time in-engine rendering — and fully supported for calling and modification!

Constantly updated additional content! High-difficulty modifier challenges? Mysterious minigames? Homages and Easter eggs? Stay tuned!
