About this game Read the full description

Shadowbound is a 3D platforming and puzzle journey where light is your enemy and shadow is your only ally.

After a mysterious cataclysm, the world has been reduced to fragments suspended in the void. Travel through its ruins, manipulate light, and seek shelter in the shadows as you recover the lost colors.

Each color reveals a memory from the protagonist’s life: their childhood, their family, the passage of time, and those everyday moments that only seem important once they have been left behind.

Overcome short, focused levels that combine movement, precision, and environmental puzzles. Leap between shadows, move objects, redirect beams of light, and activate mechanisms as you gradually reconstruct a story about growing up, remembering, and learning to value the time we have.

Key features:

· Platforming and puzzles based on the interaction between light and shadow.

· An emotional story about family, memories, and the different stages of life.

· Minimalist black-and-white environments that gradually regain their color.

· Short, varied levels focused on clear and direct challenges.

· Mirrors, lasers, detectors, physical objects, and interactive mechanisms.

· Environmental storytelling told through memories, environments, and fragments of color.

· An experience about the passage of time and the importance of making the most of every moment.
