About This Game

Borrow light from a world caught in a loop

Tetherlight is a side-scrolling action adventure about a young lamplighter and her star-fox companion. Explore a changing world, reclaim the dawn flames, and confront the silence that turns every journey back toward its beginning.

Fight and travel with your companion

Throw Kit to latch onto enemies and bells, pull yourself through the air, and chain tether movement with staff combos, aerial strikes, and evasive dashes. Discover new tether forms that open fresh routes and combat possibilities.

Plan your route as the days change

Forests become hostile, workshops flood, and snowstorms reshape the journey. Return to town, speak with its residents, and choose where to travel before the night closes in. Knowledge and lasting upgrades give every new loop a different purpose.

Make the light your own

Equip charms, strengthen your staff, and summon the spirits of defeated guardians. Adapt your approach to fierce boss encounters, then carry the dawn toward the clock tower.

Play with keyboard and mouse or an Xbox-compatible controller, choose your preferred difficulty, and switch interface languages in the settings.
