Coming Soon To Early Access

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

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I am releasing in early access to gain feedback on the game by letting the public know it is actively being worked on, and the developer is very open to feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I am thinking maybe a year of updates and listening to community feedback before releasing the full 1.0”

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

“The additional features released in the full mode will be a two player hide and seek and tag. Full bug fixes and glitches. ”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Nearly complete. I haven't found any bugs or glitches, but I am the creator of the game so I am playing the game as I would play it and not how someone who does not know how to play it. And there is no other game modes beside the 8-monster campaign.”

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

“Price will stay the same with a repeat of the release day sale when the full release comes out.”

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

“Listening and commenting on reviews while actively updating anything they bring to my attention. Not just bugs. If someone has an idea for another level, I will absolutely do my best to include the idea in the game. Especially if it sounds really cool.”

About This Game

WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT, IT SEES YOU

Lights Out, Run is a first-person survival horror game set inside your own home at night. What should feel familiar quickly becomes unsafe as childhood fears begin to manifest and behave like something real.

You are not just being scared. You are being watched.

Every room has different risks. Every shadow may hide something that reacts to sound, movement, or light. Survival depends on how well you can observe, adapt, and learn what each threat is before it finds you.

 SURVIVE YOUR HOME AT NIGHT

You must move through a dark, shifting house where danger is never in the same place twice.

Stay out of sight

Manage limited light sources

Listen for movement in the dark

Adapt to changing threats in real time

FEARS THAT BEHAVE DIFFERENTLY

Each childhood fear is not just a visual threat it has unique behavior patterns.

Some react to light.

Some track vulnerability.

Some only appear when you think you’re alone.

You will not survive using the same strategy twice.

LIGHT IS POWER BUT NOT INFINITE

Light helps you see what’s coming…and signals the monsters to turn them off.

Darkness exposes you… but sometimes vulnerability creates opportunities.

Every decision is a tradeoff between safety and survival.

 LEARN OR BE CAUGHT

Progress is based on understanding, not repetition.

You must:

Observe enemy behavior

Identify patterns

Use environmental cues to survive longer each night

SOME FEARS NEVER LEAVE

They just wait until the lights go out again.
