Steam now features the launch of After Light Fades, a "mystical, magical sokoban puzzle journey" with a 10% launch discount for Windows, macOS, and Linux. The environments are described as surreal, while the feels are genuine, as it promises an "emotional transformation" exploring grief and memory. This can be seen in the Launch Trailer, and there's a playable demo to experience things for yourself. Here's more:

Developed by indie studio Orchid of Redemption, the game invites players into a surreal, magical world shaped by memory and loss. Across seven handcrafted puzzle worlds and more than 100 sokoban-style challenges, players must uncover meaning, navigate grief, and ultimately let go of what once was.

The story is told primarily through gameplay and environment. Each interaction, whether connecting circuits, redirecting fire, or growing vines, is designed to reflect Alice’s emotional transformation. Rather than relying on dialogue or cutscenes, After Light Fades encourages players to feel the emotional weight of its themes through the mechanics themselves. The act of letting go is not only narrative but mechanical, as players are asked to abandon key abilities they have grown attached to. This design choice reinforces the game's central message: loss and growth are deeply connected, and transformation requires change.
