Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We chose Early Access to gather feedback and improve the experience based on player insights. Chasing Her Light is a narrative-driven game, and we want to make sure the emotional pacing, mechanics, and atmosphere resonate with players. Early Access allows us to shape the final version together with our community.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently plan to keep the game in Early Access until around January 2026, depending on player feedback and the development progress.

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan for the full version to feature a complete story arc, additional areas to explore, expanded environmental storytelling, and refined mechanics based on player feedback.
We also aim to add more upgrade options, accessibility improvements, and performance optimization for low-end systems.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version includes the prologue and the first two major areas of the game, with core gameplay systems such as tree cutting, inventory management, upgrade mechanics, and the unique goggles-tracking feature fully implemented. The main storyline begins to unfold, and players can already experience the emotional atmosphere, gather resources, and follow the footprints of the lost dog.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No, the price of the game will remain the same after Early Access. Since we plan to develop Chasing Her Light together with the community, we believe it's only fair to keep the price consistent for all players who support the project, regardless of when they join us.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We plan to actively involve the community by listening to feedback on Steam discussions, social media, and in-game feedback systems.
We intend to consider player suggestions for future updates and aim to share development progress, polls, and behind-the-scenes insights throughout development.

About This Game

Chasing Her Light is an emotional survival-adventure game about loss, memory, and the bond between man and dog.

After losing his wife in a tragic car accident, a man escapes the chaos of the city and retreats to a remote forest cabin — his only companion being the dog she gifted him shortly before her death. But one day, the dog vanishes into the wilderness. Now, armed only with an axe and fading warmth, he journeys deep into the snow-covered forest to find her… and perhaps, a piece of himself.

Key Features:

🌲 Progressive Tree-Cutting System – Trees don’t fall in one hit. Chop through multiple stages with visual feedback at every step.

🐾 Search for Your Dog – Each tree you cut brings you closer to your lost companion, and deeper into the forest.

🔥 Heat Management – The forest is cold and unforgiving. Stay warm by building fires and managing your heat bar wisely.

🪓 Upgradeable Axes – Improve your axe to cut faster and reach areas previously blocked by denser trees.

🎒 Resource Gathering & Economy – Collect and sell wood or rare pinecones to afford upgrades.

🏠 Survival in Isolation – Your cabin is your only refuge. Keep your fire alive or freeze to death in the wild.

Chasing Her Light is a quiet, deeply personal journey — a story of healing in the heart of a frozen wilderness.
