Press release:
Shenzhen, China, February 7th, 2023.
Smartmelon Games is offering players a playable sneak peak at its upcoming sci-fi narrative potboiler “Lightracer Spark” ahead of its Spring release.

This new demo is only available for one week as part of Steam Next Fest from February 6th-13th at 10am PST, so don’t delay in checking it out!

Lightracer Spark is the follow-up to Smartmelon’s acclaimed mobile hit, Lightracer Ignition, which has 5.5M players all over the world, and won for Best Mobile Game in IndiePlay China 2020. Don’t worry if you’ve not played Lightracer Ignition though, as Lightracer Spark works as a standalone story featuring an all new intergalactic adventure of advanced civilizations deciding the fate of the universe.

Part visual novel, part management sim, and part RPG, Lightracer Spark puts you in the role of an advanced being called the Amender, who has descended to various extraterrestrial worlds.

Here you must make choices to guide various civilizations to prosperity… or stave off their progress, should you desire. Accumulate strength through your decisions, break through the shackles of time and space towards the center of the universe, and grasp the rise and fall of all civilizations!

Players will manipulate territory on the planet Originum, as well as building celestial projects around the world. By managing resources and influencing the landscape, you’ll greatly affect the way the planet’s inhabitants evolve and progress.

In addition to forging the evolution of a singular planet, you’ll also be able to make deals with highly advanced civilizations. Through a technology called “Worldline Switching”, you’ll be able to travel to the center of the universe and confront powerful civilizations that affect the laws of nature… or ignite new sparks in the dark depths of space.

“This new demo of Lightracer Spark introduces players to the Amender and the tough decisions you’ll face as an advanced being in charge of managing an entire planet,” said Dequan Zheng, the CEO of Smartmelon Games.

“We hope this taste of the adventure piques players’ interest in continuing the epic Lightracer saga!.”
