The Green Light

Liked it, the story was interesting and I assume it was about [spoiler] leaving a job that burns one out and chasing the dream of becoming an artist[/spoiler] which is a theme we see IRL ever that often. The overall aestethics were a bit all over the place, but as it seems to be a solo-dev-project it is kinda acceptable and still matched each other, I mean, try to find matching assets without paying too much money or learning 3D modelling yourself. The length is fine too. I tend to rush through things and an hour of gameplay is fine in my opinion, sure, 3€ would be a bit more fair for the length but that's a "me thing". What I actually didn't like where the puzzles which were somehow too easy because they had the solution written above them, or because it was just a hunt for objects. And I didn't like the sound balancing, one second really quiet, the next my headphones get overloaded. But aside from that, a pretty fine game, wouldn't mind seeing the devs next game, because I can see potential.

Das Spiel hat ein Paar sehr starke Horrormomente. Einiges passiert hier nur am Rande, was einem schnell entgehen kann. So was finde ich immer sehr gelungen. Die Atmosphäre überzeugt auch die meiste Zeit. Leider hat es sich der Entwickler nicht nehmen lassen, die typischen, billigen, Standard Jumpscares ein zu bauen. Das zieht das Gesamterlebnis doch etwas runter. Die Grafik hat auch so an ein Paar Stellen ihre Probleme. Vor allem Texturen flackern hier und da mal. [spoiler] Was mich auch etwas enttäuscht hat war, dass man kaum Zeit in dem coolen Setting mit den Tentakeln und so verbringt. Das hatte mich mit am meisten gecatched bei dem Trailer und ist nur in den letzten paar Minuten mal kurz im Game. Das Ende kommt dann auch sehr spontan. [/spoiler] Ich persönlich hätte auch echt gerne noch eine Einstellung für die Helligkeit gehabt. Alles in allem für so ein günstiges Indie Game aber wirklich eine starke Sache und auf jeden fall eine Empfehlung. Der Entwickler hat ein gutes Händchen für Horror. Wenn er sich auf seine Stärken fokussiert und den billigen, generischen Kram komplett weg lässt, dann kann das hier einer der besseren Indie Entwickler werden in dem Genre. Man sollte den im Auge behalten ;). Von mir bekommt das Game eine 7/10 und zählt somit auch zu einem der stärkeren Horror Games des Jahres.

short walkingsim minimal puzzle game. i enjoyed it at 50% off.

[h1]THE GREEN LIGHT[/h1] Yet another short horror walking simulator that has a nice creepy atmosphere and second game developed by waleedzo. The visuals are decent so is the audio/music/voice acting. There is some light puzzles to uncover key items at certain times, requiring you trigger the proper script but nothing too annoying! So what is this one? Like the synopsis says, you go as Fred, an overworked guy that's haunted by hallucinations and want's answers once and for all by that lighthouse beacon known as the Green Light. No technical issues nor bugs encountered in my playthrough. Perfect UltraWide monitor support. HOWEVER, same as The Black Within, I'd like to point out that the game is not that well optimized and kept pushing my GPU at full throttle on default settings. Once I fixed the FPS to 120, the game ran better and my GPU wasn't a rocket engine no more. [h1]RECOMMENDATION:[/h1] [b]Simple and short horror walking simulator. You already know those and if you're familiar with that kind of game, THE GREEN LIGHT is a pretty decent one. I recommend you get play this game after The Black Within since it is connected to it.[/b]

The Green Light me surpreendeu pela proposta. O jogo entrega muito mais do que um terror em primeira pessoa: ele constrói uma narrativa claramente filosófica sobre aprisionamento emocional, identidade e ruptura. Para mim, ficou evidente que a “luz verde” não fala sobre dinheiro ou riqueza material, mas sobre liberdade — a coragem de abandonar um ciclo de humilhação, parar de viver como ferramenta e assumir o controle da própria vida. A jornada de Fred soa como um confronto com o próprio subconsciente, uma luta interna entre permanecer ovelha em um sistema predatório ou levantar e buscar seus próprios sonhos. O trecho final, especialmente, deixa essa mensagem muito forte: liberdade exige atravessar o próprio inferno interno antes de alcançá-la. Dito isso, senti que em alguns momentos a narrativa abre caminhos demais sem deixar totalmente claro qual linha simbólica quer seguir. Elementos como os símbolos ocultistas, o teste do dinheiro no cofre, os manequins e as entidades observando, além da própria fala de que algo o acompanha desde o nascimento, criam interpretações que vão do psicológico ao místico e até ao cósmico. Essa ambiguidade é interessante, mas em certos pontos parece que faltou amarração, como no caso de Kip e sua esposa, que levantam possibilidades narrativas que não se fecham completamente. Para alguns jogadores, isso pode gerar a sensação de pontas soltas ou de que a história poderia ter escolhido uma direção mais definida. Ainda assim, a mensagem central funciona. O jogo consegue transmitir a ideia de que a verdadeira libertação não está fora, mas dentro — e que enfrentar a própria dor é parte do processo. É uma experiência curta, visualmente bonita, com atmosfera marcante e uma proposta reflexiva que vale a pena ser vivida, especialmente para quem aprecia narrativas simbólicas e abertas à interpretação. joguei hoje dia 22/02/2026 vou postar no meu canal e esclarecer a parte filosófica q eu entendi do jogo, canal TrinirhyGames

Не плохая игра… Для инди-хоррора 2013 года. Ну никак не для 2026, диалоги глупые, хоррор элемент заключается в "Тихо тихо тихо…а потом БААА". Скримеры очевидно пугали, странные головоломки разгадывались за полторы минуты, графика и квадратный левл-дизайн опять же 13-й год. Так же думал что тут будет лавкрафт, но тут его не оказалась, есть неинтересная пресловутая история о выходе из повседневности.

Short but atmospheric horror game. The candle puzzle was simple but fun, and the environment had a creepy vibe. Took me about an hour to finish, but I enjoyed the experience. Looking forward to more games from this developer.

yo trust me its worth it buying the green light yo walleed this is apple btw

awful

A very nice horror game, but most of the jump scares were not very impactful, however the buildup to them is well worth it.
