What it is about
Soon you will fizzle out. This is a solo+ journaling rpg about the moments a lightbulb witnesses while in a home, office, or other space. Throughout the game, you'll be narrating moments you've provided light through, all the while marching towards your own eventual dimming and burning out. You could opt to play this as a group of lightbulbs (such as in a light fixture). Please use safety tools while playing this game, as it can have themes of death, dying, depression, and/or trauma. One of my favorite safety tools to use while in solo play is Lines and Veils, as well as Script Change. This game was made for the 48 word RPG Jam. It is dedicated to my grandfather. Number of players: 1+ Age of players : 8+ Length : 30-45 minutes. Page Count : 1 across all files Release Date : 01/01/2026
