Press release:
Mountain Giant Ltd (Edinburgh, UK) – October 7th, 2021 – Swedish Publisher Zordix and Polish developer Rock Square Thunder are excited to release their poetic puzzle-platformer “The Lightbringer” on Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop and PC via Steam today!

The game has been fully written and voiced in verse and will take players on a wholesome journey with an old-school mix of platforming and light combat. The Lightbringer as well as a free demo is now available on the eShop and Steam.

The world of The Lightbringer is under siege by a malicious corruption, targeting the ancient monoliths that gave power and light to these lands. As the chosen one, you have the ability to harness pure light energy from the air, energy that will aid you in cleansing the monoliths to bring back their light.

Explore, jump and fight your way through each level while gathering light motes. Every level functions like its own little world, and you’ll need to venture off the beaten path to find enough to cleanse the level’s monolith.

About Rock Square Thunder
The origin of RST goes back to 2014, when the founders met at Bloober Team, where they worked together on multiple projects, such as Layers Of Fear, The Observer, Blair Witch and The Medium. After work, they enjoyed hanging out together, playing video games, partying and coming up with game ideas.
The first prototype of The Lightbringer started in 2015 as a solo project of Łukasz Kudziela, a 3d artist by day. He enlisted level design help from Artur Wiecheć, his friend and a teammate in the day job. And so began the many lives of The Lightbringer.

In 2019, Łukasz and Artur were joined by their friend, Janusz Tarczykowski, who was experienced in both programming and business development.
The trio decided to form a team and pitch their game to the publishers, which resulted in finding a perfect match in Zordix Publishing. Production commenced in 2020. In 2021 the team has grown to 9 members.
