Shadow Alchemist

Cute little game. It's one drop of nothing, a thick slice of thin air, a good cut of never was, a sweet moment of doesn't matter. It's just adorable. Ludum Dare vibes. Very short, a bit repetitve, so mind that when you purchase, but it really is a nice little something.

Really good baseline for a larger possible game. Could very easily be a much longer game to play with additional systems implemented. Congrats on the Steam release! I knew what the story was going to be right from the beginning, but still enjoyed how it was implemented. The blob enemies are a little buggy to hit, only seems like there's a left/right attack and not up/down? Still - worth the tiny price for the game. Entertained me for about 45 mins on first playthrough. No real replayability unless you care about achievements. It's a good one-and-done. <3

A neat little puzzle game with an interesting story.

Very delicious Game!

The game isn't bad, just a bit disappointing. There's very few puzzles, mostly quite simplistic and the combat isn't really fully developed either. With some more advanced puzzles this would be a great game, maybe some Metroidvania elements and a more open map too. The abilities should be more spaced out and the combinations dived into deeper. As it is, I can't really recommend it, even the movement feels too slow. Also on the Steam Deck there is sometimes an issue with a flashing bar at the top, retoggling fullscreen fixes it - I assume it was due to 16:9 game resolution vs. 16:10 on the Steam Deck.

It's a nice little atmospheric puzzler, and well-priced for its length. Just don't do like I did and neglect to work out what button is tied to your knife attack - you can get through most of the game without it, but you will need it eventually.
