ORi

Ori is a given name of Hebrew origin, commonly masculine, meaning "my light" or simply "light." It is used primarily in Israel and among Jewish communities worldwide, and can be a standalone name or a short form of longer names.

In addition to its use as a personal name, Ori is widely recognized in popular culture as the title character in the Ori series of platform games developed by Moon Studios and published by Microsoft Studios. The character Ori is a small, luminous guardian spirit who traverses a forest to restore balance after a catastrophe. The first game, Ori and the Blind Forest, released in 2015, follows Ori's quest with the help of Sein, a light spirit. The sequel, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, released in 2020, expands exploration and gameplay while maintaining the series’ focus on atmosphere, story, and precise platforming.

The games are noted for their hand-painted art style, orchestral soundtrack by Gareth Coker, and accessibility options; they received critical acclaim and influenced the platforming genre. The Ori series is regarded for combining emotional storytelling with challenging yet fair gameplay, and for its distinctive visual presentation and musical score.
