Welcome to Brightville — an immersive sim where you play as a guardian automaton exploring the dark corners of the mysterious mana-punk city⚙️✨ Wishlist below⬇️
Big news! Welcome to Brightville is joining IGN Fan Fest 2025 Fall Edition! Watch it on @IGN YouTube Channel on Wednesday, October 15, at 9 am PDT / 12 pm EDT / 5 pm BST. Stay tuned, and thank you all for the wishlists, views, and the kind words! #IGNFanFest
Testing potential spell combinations and how they interact in the game world. Acid puddle + lightning bolt = anyone who steps into it regrets their life choices. WIP, of course.
Another enemy type - the Ghost People! They drift through Brightville like echoes of the past. They won’t chase you. Most remain motionless — until you least expect it. Some are just waiting for you to turn your back or let your guard down. Then they strike!
Meet The Gentleman! An imposing figure you will never forget. One of Brightville’s iconic inhabitants, you might say. Originally intended as an aid in de-escalating conflicts in places like bars and shops, it soon became a "law" enforcer for the AI that took over the city.
Why does our current NPC AI look like a swarm of spiders chasing you to discuss our lord and savior, Artificial Intelligence?
We’re testing AI navigation. They’ll learn personal space soon. Maybe.
On the topic of the game's inhabitants! A spider-like reconnaissance bot. True to their spider nature, they love climbing walls and sticking to the shadows.
This enemy will be one of the first opponents the players encounter on the path to uncovering the mysteries of Brightville
How do people describe our game:
- Imagine if Bioshock's city, Dishonored's powers and Lies of P's robots had a baby (RPS)
- Lies of Bioshock (we appreciate it)
- Can't wait for the release (don't forget to wishlist)
Thank you for hundreds of thousands of views, tons of wishlists & media attention! We are humbled and honestly, overwhelmed with all the great comments. The work is just getting started and we'll share more soon!
