A downloadable game

In The Shadows is a puzzle game for the  Playdate,  inspired by a hot summer day during a recent heat wave where temperature almost hit 40 degrees celsius! Walking down the street became a game of the floor is lava in the real world, jumping from shadow to shadow and dodging the sun where ever I can!

Gameplay

Make your way to the goal by controlling the shadows! 

Turn the crank to shift the sun left and right to create your own path.

The A button will temporarily freeze a shadow in place allowing for more creative routes to your destination.

Installation

Download the PDX here and side load it on to your Playdate.  Please refer to Sideloading Playdate games on the Playdate help site

Feedback

I would love to hear what you think of the game. It's my first time developing for the playdate so your feedback will help me become a better developer!
