    I wanto implement a game mode where my hurdles will be in dark and only when character with light source on it reaches near them they become visible

    just like cave mode in color switch (see attacment luminous.png )

    is it possible in buildbox ?

    Hey,
    I think you can, in Colour Switch the light source is linked to the character in CAVE MODE.
    Im guessing you can add the light effect, with "cast shadow"ticked and use a blank object/image to block the light and then use the wake up function on the object to move away once the character gets close to it.

    Attach a invisible box to your character and attach a light to your invisible box. After linking them in the order mentioned, move your light on top or in front of your character.

    I've tried this, it's still not fixing the issue for me. I have a character with a light attached, it will cast shadows on all object in the world in preview mode and in the Xcode simulator.. but when you load the game on the device, the shadows are not rendered.
