It took a minute for me to make the connection, but this is quite a fun game once the connection is made.
Now that's an original game mechanic! Never seen anything like this before, and still felt really well implemented with the shadow platforms and enemies, plus some fantastic pixel art! Well done :D
Thanks!!!
very cool use of shadow platforming
A really cool mechanic and idea, but confusing to actually play... The lack of a learning curve on what can interact with what left me scrambling for platforms the whole time. Being able to just sit aside and spam attack for the shadow to kill enemies was kind of a bummer.
No music was a bit disappointing but the visuals are great and the animations are really nice.
Thanks for the feedback!
A really cool idea that works better than I thought when reading the description. It looks really good too. Really well done!
Thank you!!!
