Field notes

First Light structures its story around four acts, moving from a 1940s kitchen table and river ferry to a 1986 arcade setting and a present-day garage. The page says each level is drawn from a specific family object or scene, including wedding rings, radios, snow forts, and east windows. It also describes an Afterglow mode with no story or stakes, alongside four difficulty levels and a soundtrack designed to shift across decades.
