I used to live in a desert. Needless to say, the "only stand in the shadows' game we played was very, very real...
Didn’t actually think the game had a story until I saw the stream on steam lol
I think you nailed the colour scheme. Looks awesome.
Oh boy am i ready to play this game in a month.
this looks incredible, dude! the accommodation for colorblindness is great.
Always nice to see fellow Dutch indie devs.
Your game looks very lovely.
Honestly, this is the most creative game i see this day
This is amazing! Excellent work!
Wow, "Designing a Game Around Shadows!" sounds intriguing! Exploring how shadows can become a core gameplay mechanic must be both challenging and creatively rewarding.
What inspired you the most to center your game design around shadows, and how do you ensure they enhance rather than detract from the player experience?
It sure has been challenging as well. For example anything that is decoration also creates a platform in the game. So you have to think of a couple elements at once.
The biggest inspiration for us is the childhood imagination games everyone used to play when they were young, where you made up your own rules and stuck to them.
We have tested the game a lot with a wide variety of players to find the spots that felt the best to create the design times we would follow.
@@extra-nice it`s just simple gold man
wish you luck!
Tell us about the technical difficulties you solved!
We will probably do a dev log on that after release!
This looks like an incredibly fun game
I would like to know more about the story (if it has one) but so far this looks really good
Definitely getting best indie nomination at game awards👍👍👍
What a beautiful game and greatly executed!
This looks absolutely amazing! I would be interested in seeing more about how you developed the art style if you plan on sharing more on youtube. All the best with the launch!
We will probably do a dev log on that after the release
Now this is a unique idea I love it
Thank you!
I am a person who tends to be in other people’s shadows
Stunning visuals. Love that umbrella pushed by the wind. Amazing job!
Amazing project!! It’s really original in many aspects.
And what makes me even more excited is that me and my friend played this game many many years ago in a real life in a school age on the way back home from the school..))
We were stepping only on the shadows of all the objects (which was very challenging and even a bit dangerous sometimes 😅).
We called it “Shadow Side”.
I totally believe in you and your project, wish you great success with it and you have everything for that.
God bless 🙏
Thank you and thanks for sharing!
great idea, gameplay looks fun
Aw, man! This is a FANTASTIC idea!
It's one of those ideas that makes me go "Man, why didn't I come up with that?!" Seriously awesome, man. ^^

One problem is if the game only have one mechanic of jump and without consequence, it will be pretty boring fast, this game should kinda learn things from Jump King, some climb to the top kinda games, it's basically the same concept in my head. Either it's hard and punishing games, it's up to the dev.
one more things, most "relaxing" type of games is kinda boring IMO without some kind of objective or rewards or unlockable, sense of progress is mostly missing on "relaxing" type of games, in this game if we only jumping without some objective, most people will bored pretty fast.
I'll be honest, most relaxing type of games had some charms and potential, but most of them end up feels really bland.
