The official FAQ post published in 2023, as read in September 2026: team, tests, languages, reference prices and past release plans.
The author and channel are part of the record: Matavatar published this FAQ on the official Beautiful Light Steam News channel on 2023-04-21.
The body describes a team of 12 after two developers had started the project about four years earlier, and says most team members were freelancers, many from modding communities. This is an attributed answer from the older post, not a present team count.
It listed 15 languages and added that the list may vary depending on wishlist localisation data. It quoted a Standard Edition at EUR 39.99 and a Supporter Edition at EUR 69.99, described as prices in France used as a reference, with localisation by region.
The body read on 2026-09-26 describes a playable demo in mid-2025 and open Early Access at the end of 2025. Those are past plans. The post's original publication date does not prove when each sentence was added or edited, and this page does not infer whether the demo was delivered.
On platforms, the post said the game would release on PC through Steam, and described PS5 and Xbox Series X only as a possibility being considered. On cheating, it explicitly refused to promise a solution.
The source is a dated official announcement
