How does you game fit the theme?
The Player character is not alone as his shadow is always there to help him
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All the assets were made from scratch including the music also. The same holds true for all the code.

Awesome! Tutorial is great!! The mechanics are very interesting. It was hard to notice if there was a change when I pressed the switch, so it would have been easier to tell if there was any noise. But it's a great game!

The Nine Stone TablesI love arts and smooth animations! Movement controls are a bit troublesome and also the shadow is almost invisible on the dark background. Some kind of outline would be great.
Nice game!

Ghost HoverNice concept, I think art and music are really nice. I wasn't able to get past the second level, but maybe that was my fault. I did have a couple of suggestions though, like adding a frictionless physics material to the object to avoid getting stuck on walls and adding an indicator for when the shadow is too close to light. Overall great job though, and love the smoke button.

Friends in the DarkReally like the artistic style of the game and the way you and your shadow need each other to progress. Character got stuck on the sides of object while jumping though

I'm Not AloneReally cool concept! And I like the tutorial. The animations are great with details especially calling shadow back. The art style is amazing, maps are well made, definitely five. The music is outstanding - matches the game and together with lights add atmosphere. Critics: player can hang on walls. Really unique idea with this shadow! Enjoyed!
Really nice job!
the game is insane, the animations look fluid and the lighting is really good, the mechanics are unique too! the music is actually pretty good as well, great game! well done!

A Merchants Guide To The GalaxyI have to admit i am usually not a pixel art fan but really like your style here. I took enough smoke breaks to give this guy cancer lol. loved the way you did the controls/tutorials. nice work

The ShoemakerHeyy, thanks. The game's resolution was 1080 p. We did try to force the game to always play at 1080 p but I guess that causeed the menu artwork and pause screen artworks to not be placed properly in some of the screens. If you're asking about the pixel art res, I kept the characters att 64x64, and so were most of the other assets. THe tile sets were 16x16. Some other assests were 32x32
Very nice concept and pixel art!!! The tutorial text made it seem overcomplicated but the game flows naturally. Maybe having the same key to call and send the shadow would've been more comfortable.
