The Shadows

THE IDEA

How it plays

A fallen inquisitor returns to an earlier day with his memories intact. Fight through a side-scrolling fantasy world using weapon swaps, parries and wire movement while following his pursuit of revenge.

  1. Move with A/D, jump with Space and attack with the left mouse button.
  2. Use E to swap or parry, right click for the wire and F to execute or interact.

Before you play

  • The author identifies some backgrounds and boss art as placeholders.
  • Windows download is available alongside the HTML5 build.
  • Keyboard controls are rebindable.

Device support is not confirmed. Browser format alone does not mean a game works on every phone.

Match the controls and price to the way you want to play. A saved link on Oddplay does not save progress inside the game.
