About this project
Lightbender is a bright, colorful, and fun puzzle game based on the physics of light. It’s about manipulating beams of different colored lights to hit the targets. Use prisms to split the lights, mirrors to bend the lights, lenses to combine the lights, and dark matter to invert the lights!
Lightbender comes out of the box with 240 levels (+60 exclusive levels for all Kickstarter Backers).
Place a mirror on the grid to bend the light. You can rotate mirrors to redirect the beams toward the goal.
Prisms split lights into their components. Hit multiple targets by breaking one one beam of light into multiple colors.
- White becomes Red, Green, and Blue.
- Yellow becomes Red and Green.
- Magenta becomes Red and Blue.
- Cyan becomes Green and Blue.
Lenses combine lights to produce a new color. Place them on the grid to transform two or three beams of light into one new color. Think of them as the opposite of prisms.
Dark Matter turns a beam of light into the opposite color.
- Red to Cyan
- Green to Magenta
- Blue to Yellow
As the levels progress in difficulty, you'll have to use all of these tools in combination with one another to hit all of the targets!

Submit your levels to the Lightbender database and your work could end up featured in a future (FREE) DLC level pack!

Lightbender will be released via Steam for PC, Mac, and Linux.
Lightbender will also be released as both a companion app for users with the Steam version and a standalone app for users without the Steam Version.
All reward tiers include lesser reward tiers, not including duplicate rewards, limited rewards, or same price rewards, unless stated otherwise.
Example: Choosing the $20 BEST FRIENDS reward includes the $1 tier, the $10 tier, and the $20 tier, but not the $5 tier, as that has a duplicate item in it.
