Independent games from Hawaiʻi
Keep a little
light alive.
We’re making Candlelight: a one-touch journey through stone, shadow and sound.
Discover Candlelight

Our first game
Candlelight
One thumb. A fragile flame. A cathedral waiting in the dark.
Hold to grow the flame. Let go to lower it. Bring it into the pale outline as the challenge reaches you, then carry your light into the next chamber.
Each room changes the atmosphere. The gesture stays simple. How far can you keep the light?
Kept Light Studios
A small studio.
A patient approach.
Kept Light Studios LLC is an independent game studio based in Hawaiʻi, founded by Lance Roylo.
We care about the feel of a single gesture, the sound of a room, and the moment a player chooses to try again. Candlelight is our first game, currently in development for iOS.
We’re taking the time to make its smallest moments count.
