About this game Read the full description
Shadow Runner is a speedrun-oriented platformer, where you must master three gameplay elements simultaneously to finish the level in the shortest possible time.

Use the classical dash and double jump to move between the platforms, and make the most of your grapple when possible.

Beware, as your character cannot stay in the light or in shadows without you manually switching which side you want.

Control the position of the sun to create the most efficient path to complete the level.

Understand these three gameplay mechanics and transform them into reflexes to finish in the shortest amount of time.
