Overview
Last Light: Chalk Creek is a top-down, twin-stick shooter from ELIN Software, released on October 22, 2026. Set in a sun-bleached rural town that has fallen silent, the game drops you into a post-apocalyptic struggle against infected locals and creatures that burrow up from the soil.
With a 3D isometric view and arcade-style action, it blends fast-paced shooting with a story-driven campaign.

- Illustrated story campaign: The game features three chapters of objectives, defense surges, and a guarded rescue, all wrapped in narrated briefings and personal endings.
- Co-op multiplayer: Steam lists Multi-player support, so you can team up with friends to fight through the infected horde together.
