Lightbulb is a multiplayer clicker where you and other players continuously toggle a light on and off, with the collective outcome determined by sheer volume of clicks. Your individual actions contribute to a persistent world state that shifts based on real-time player input, making it a brief, social experiment in coordinated chaos rather than a traditional progression game.
