About this game
Overview Waning Light is a story-rich card battler with life-sim elements that explores how mental health can shape everyday decisions, relationships, and perception. Players take on the role of a young adult navigating the pressures of daily life, where every choice comes at the cost of something else.

Time can be invested in school, work, relationships, or self-care, but not everything can be maintained at once. What is neglected does not disappear. It carries forward, influencing the player’s experience in both subtle and direct ways. Dual World Structure At night, the player enters a dream world shaped by those decisions. Environments shift, characters react differently, and challenges emerge based on what has been left behind. This world reflects internal struggles, turning everyday pressures into something visible and interactive. Card Combat & Emotional Management Players engage in turn-based card combat against enemies tied to their experiences. Cards are earned through choices and actions, allowing players to build their approach over time. The character’s emotional state influences how cards behave, reinforcing the connection between gameplay and mental state.
