The Green Light is a first person horror game – and it’s now available on GOG!

Fred is stuck in a dead-end job, haunted by hallucinations. A voice on the radio speaks of a green light. It promises peace and freedom. A tale of self-discovery where Fred is willing to find freedom, even at the cost of his life.

Now on GOG!
To the forum...
Probably the most intriguing title out of today's bunch.
I just bought both games and plan to check them out the next few days since I love anything horror!
I have however read the reviews in advance and know that while it might not be overwhelmingly good, I think it could still be a good enough experience to sit through. The other game looks very decent too, I hadnt seen it till now:)
Stephen King’s Tommyknockers?

As are you it appears. :P
Holy * this was good!
I knew those negative reviews on the other platform seemed off from what I could see from trailer and images.
This game was incredible, an easy 5 star from me!
The voice acting especially the main character was incredible, the visuals and audio superb and get to u at the right times and right amounts, and the jumpscares and horror stuff was sooo damn good imo!
And the story omg, wont spoil but I loved it! And that music in the end, which Im totally hunting down right now to put on repeat.
Great job to this dev and team, Im really blown away by this game and Im so glad I give games a chance despite what negative reviews say, which in this case def seem odd and I dont agree with any of them! Most of them are also written by the typical 'rival/hate club as I like to call them, who missed the walking sim tag and expected action and shooting and runing from monsters so they call it boring instead. It was not! Take it in, pay attention and dont blink!
Very well optimized too!

Need to collect my thoughts b4 I make a review because that ending!
But its definitly a 5 star from me and I will be checking out the other game tomorrow too.

Its short, takes a few hours, but perfect length, easy story and puzzles to follow and understand. Im just really loving this game lol.
Good night, I sat up way past my bedtime with this lol:)

-edit
Would recommend also playing his other game which right now is way too cheap!
Both are great games and worth full price imo.
If u want, Id recommend to play The black Within first, then The Green Light. This second one is independant but there are small things and 'easter egs' carrying over to the second game, so if u want, play both in right order:)
Both take about an hour or 2 to finish.

So that's a YES, got it yesterday but forgot to post here.

Up my alley, looks interesting enough and the asking price is very reasonable so, sure, i'm game.

Its still installed so I can check later if mine works:)
I would suggest u grab the other game also while its almost free (it deserves full price tho imo), and play that one first as there are a few 'easter egs' carrying over to this one. But both can be played seperatly , I played in reverse myself:)

-Edit
I just checked for this game and it doesnt seem to work reliably no, not on mine at least, which is a switch controller.
Once in the game it works, but the main menu where u choose new game etc I had to use mouse to select.
In the options it wont work unless I first click one of the boxes with mouse, then I can move up and down with controller and select, go back or change inputs. But it need me to first hit one of the boxes with my mouse or nothing happens.
I just tested a bit in game tho and it seems to work there, for me at least.
Maybe it works better with ur controller, mine is just a cheap one since I rarely play with it:)

I will reisntall and check for the other game also now Im at it to find out.
- Same for The black Within too sadly, sry;(

So if just the menu needs the mouse, and the game runs smoothly with a controller, I'm fine with it. Thanks for the info!
