Shifting Shadows is a platforming-based puzzle game about manipulating items in the environment by consuming and transmuting them in order to reach the next level. There are intended solutions for each puzzle, but alternate paths may be discovered.
You play as a strange little shadow creature navigating a castle overrun by light. Starting at the bottom, in the dungeon, you slowly make your way upwards, with only your scythe and transmutation abilities to guide you.
Controls:
Move - WASD
Jump - Spacebar
Consume Object - Left Click
Place Object/Attack - Right Click
Pause Menu - Escape
Restart Level - R
Select the object you'd like to place (or your weapon) by left-clicking it in the sidebar first.
