Shadows
A downloadable game
Can you survire to your own shadows?
Aurora and her sister live alone in their enormous family mansion, having recently lost their last family member.
Aurora is unwell and her sister tries to cure her, giving her medicines and acting like a second mother to her.
The child, however, wakes up after a turbulent night and notices that something's wrong: in the rooms of the mansion she's starting to see menacing shadows that want to hurt her, scaring her so much.
Not wanting to be caught by those shadows, Aurora searches for her sisters. Surely, she must know what's happening and, maybe, she can help her...
GAMEPLAY:
The game is a puzzle and exploration game with a bit dark atmosphere.
There will be multiple endings, depending on choices made during the game.
*This game was created for the Indie Game Making Contest 2022*

Ciao! Vorrei provare questa demo, ma posso farti una domanda prima? È per caso collegata alla storia di Black Dog? La casa e gli sprite mi sembrano simili (o forse sono io). Perché qualche tempo fa avevo provato anche quella demo e mi era piaciuta, quindi sono curiosa~ Comunque, mi piace un sacco l'immagine di copertina! (Non so se è anche il title screen, ad ogni modo 👌🏻)
Ciao! Sono felice che la demo di black dog ti sia piaciuta! rispondendo alla tua domanda no, shadows è nato esclusivamente per contest (anche se l'intenzione è portarlo avanti subito dopo aver finito black dog). La grafica è simile perché è realizzata interamente da me, come per black dog, pixel per pixel ed alcune mappe le avevo realizzate in alcune mie live su twitch! Spero ti piaccia anche questa demo, conta però che è stata realizzata in un mese, quindi rispetto alla demo di black dog presenterà qualche "bug" grafico in più.
Okay~ sì, infatti mi era venuto il dubbio fosse solo l'impostazione grafica ad essere simile (infatti mi piace molto come stile, è personale e usi dei bei colori!). Grazie per la risposta veloce! Ti faccio sapere quando provo la demo! (E tranquilla per i bug, sono un po' una persecuzione per tutti 😱 avrai tempo di lavorarci poi). Aspetto anche la release di Black Dog~
Hey I did a let's play of your game! Check it out.
Overall I really, really enjoyed playing it. I'm following you and I hope to see the full version soon!I can't wait for your game's full release!!! The story is super great and the visuals, they're quite stunning!!! <3
SPOILER ALERT
I hope the controls for the puzzles will be improved. I can only interact with the upstairs puzzle (play room) by pressing the arrow down key and nothing else. The shelf puzzle almost made me give up on the game. It didn't occur to me right away that I had to solve the upstairs puzzle first before I can move the books. The sparkles wouldn't go away after solving it too!
The spawning of the monsters too and the sound effects when they pop out are sometimes not insync. When I was playing, a monster spawned in the upstairs hallway and when I entered the shared bedroom, the chase SFX are still running. That's all! :D
Hope this helps!!
Thank you a lot for playing the demo!
It surely need some polishing and there are many things to improve in the complete version!
I tried to fix a few minor bugs in the remaining time, to avoid pending graphics and such.
Monster's SE will probably change and the shadows population increased ;)
Again thank you very much for playing my demo and for your useful tips, they helped me!
