Hordelight

Hordelight is a story-driven horde survival game set in a world where the sun was extinguished twelve winters ago and darkness overwhelmed the land. The last village, Lumenfall, survives around the Last Flame. You play as one of the Lightborn, carrying the flame into the horde while uncovering who betrayed the light. The story unfolds across eight chapters, with a living village hub and an RPG progression layer.

Survive the horde

Combat uses auto-firing weapons, so you position yourself, dodge and build while attacks fire automatically. Seven weapons each have an evolution, and you can choose from four playable Lightborn, each with a signature passive that changes how you fight. Ten active skills are assigned to keys 1–4, including meteor storms, blade frenzies and spirit armies.

You hunt Ember Bearers to gather shards, then face each chapter’s Guardian. The game has eight unique bosses, with attacks that include teleports, meteor rains and ring waves.

Return to Lumenfall

The village hub develops as you play. The Elder reveals the mystery, while villagers have their own quest stories. You can forge permanent upgrades, equip six gear slots and enhance items up to +9. Star, moon and sun seals add random properties to items.

Silas’s wagon offers surprise crates, choice stock and a carnival lottery wheel.

Rites of the Flame

You can stack curses for greater rewards and unlock blessings as you progress. These systems let you replay every chapter your way.
