Step Lightly
About this game
Notice
This game was made for educational purposes at The Game Assembly in Malmö. The game is completely free and will remain so forever. As with all games at The Game Assembly, a reference game is used as a starting point for production. Step Lightly was inspired by Little Nightmares.
About the Game
You wake at midnight with just one thing on your mind: you have to leave. Move quietly through a messy house, find a friend along the way, and escape your monstrous family.
Step Lightly is a short puzzle-platformer horror game. It was made in 9 weeks by Water Leaks Studio - a team of 20 students from The Game Assembly Malmö.
Features
Traverse your house, climb the cabinets and jump across shelves to find your way.
Pick up and throw items like keys, cranks and beer bottles to solve puzzles.
Push and pull boxes around to create new paths and reach higher spaces.
Sneak around, step lightly to avoid alerting your parents.
Run for the exit. They're onto you!
