Half Light

About Half Light

In the year 1913, the world changed forever.  the Earth as we knew it was ravaged by cataclysmic events. Pollution spread across the skies, scorching the land and transforming the world into a burning wasteland. The air became toxic, the oceans poisoned, and life on the surface for many became unsustainable. Day and night merged to become one, sending the planet into a permanent half light.  

You are Citizen 134 of the underground settlement known only as Settlement 13, one of hundreds of communities that work tirelessly to provide food and resources for the survivors above. Food in the settlements is scarce and resources are dwindling, but your community survives.

Navigate this brutal reality. Scavenge for supplies, and search for new hope, all while uncovering the secrets of the world that was lost to the flames above. Explore decaying tunnels, abandoned cities, and ancient ruins — remnants of a time long gone. Along the way, face dangerous mutated creatures, hostile factions, and the ever-looming threat of environmental collapse.

Will you rebuild a future from the ashes, or will you become another casualty of a world on the brink of extinction?

Survival is no longer a choice. It’s a fight!

Half Light is a story driven, linear first person shooter, set against a the background of a dark, alternative past.  Explore the ruins of civilization, solve puzzles, fight enemies and unlock the mystery of the world above.

About Us

Half Light is a community collaboration between JimJamsGames, Deezl, and Link Campus University of Rome. Much of the development of the game is undertaken by students who are learning the craft of game design under the tutorial guidance of gaming development professionals.

JimJams games are a small, indie development team with a love for the retro games, We aim to develop games that embrace that era, aiming to provide true classically styled gaming, with a retro feel, maybe with a slight hint of what these games would have been with a little more processing power.

We don't aim to develop AAA games, but simply to bring our passion for a time gone by.  Unlike our previous projects, Half Light moves us forward to the late 2000's and we taken our inspirations from some of the classic First Person Shooters of the era.
