In My Shadow
Feb 11, 2022 5 years ago
Play with shadows in your own imaginative ways to solve twisted puzzles as you unfold the memories of a girl who struggles to confront herself in her past.
What it’s like
In My Shadow presents a deceptively wholesome premise: guiding a young girl through an isometric world of light and darkness to uncover fragments of her past. The core experience revolves around manipulating shadows to solve environmental puzzles, creating a unique mechanical hook where the player must strategically position themselves to cast specific silhouettes. While the narrative touches on mature themes of family trauma and self-confrontation, the execution often feels disjointed from the gameplay. The tone attempts to balance lighthearted aesthetics with emotional weight, but this duality is frequently undermined by technical issues. Players can expect a short, linear journey that prioritizes its central gimmick over narrative cohesion or mechanical refinement.
