About Guidelight Games

Guidelight Games, founded by Tim Skafte and Thorbjørn Nielsen, is an indie game studio that is built on the belief that the best way to create deep engaging experiences is to involve the community from the very start in an open development process. The duo’s first title together is SpellRogue, which they started work on in 2020, and released more than 50 incremental playtests before releasing into Early Access in February 2024, and 1.0 on April 24, 2025.
