About In My Shadow

In My Shadow takes you on an emotional journey through the mind of Bella in pursuit of reconciliation with her past. The game features 4 rooms with a total of more than 50 puzzles to solve. Each room offers a different glimpse into her memories, exploring the changing relationships in her family. The shadows within each level must be manipulated via objects to progress and there is often more than one solution to a challenge.

In My Shadow is more than a cleverly designed puzzle platformer; it is a heart-warming story into the mind of a young woman looking for answers to questions in her past. Her childhood memories come to life as shadows on the wall of her house, and you must use those shadows to solve unique puzzles and help Bella try to let go of her past.

WHERE THERE'S A SHADOW, THERE'S A WAY

The gameplay revolves around a unique core mechanic - the shadows. You can use the shadows however you like. There can be more than one solution to a puzzle.

SHADOWS HAVE NO BOUNDARIES

The game constantly challenges you with multidimensional mechanics that force you to invent new ways to use shadows.

FEATURES

  • Refreshingly clever puzzles that make use of shadows and shapes in ways you never thought were possible.
  • More than 50 levels spread across the walls of four rooms, each with its own set of distinct mechanics.
  • A heart-felt story about Bella's mental apprehensions, narrated through her childhood memories.
  • Melodic music that flows seamlessly throughout the game to let you deeply absorb the emotion.
  • A beautifully colorful representation of Bella's house that reflects the individual personalities of everyone in her family.

✦ AI summary

Players praise In My Shadow for its unique shadow-based puzzle mechanics with thoughtfully designed levels that encourage creative perspective-based thinking, along with a touching coming-of-age story that resonates emotionally. However, common criticisms include the short playtime (around 3 hours), lack of difficulty challenge, finicky controls and platforming mechanics that require precision, and concerns about narrative changes that weakened the story's emotional impact compared to the original script.

6/10 Played with controller In My shadow is not a bad game. I tells a rather simple but familiar story a lot us go through growing up. The game play is also rather simple but needs a little more polish to make the game better in my opinion. Still, I found the game had the key concepts down already and wished to have a little more challenge. Definitely a decent game to introduce some one to the hobby. Worth at least a play through.

Link to review: https://backloggd.com/u/RedBackLoggd/review/760117/ Tl;dr - In My Shadow is unfortunately a bit short- it took me just under 3 hours to complete, and while that number could vary depending on how good/bad you are at platformers, I expect it to be the average, which runs just under my $1.00 : 30 minute ratio (the game being $10.00). Had Playbae retained their original script, I’d have no problem recommending the game at full price. However, in light of the narratorial amendments, I advise you to make your own purchase because this has gone from being a sharply designed platformer with an uncommonly affecting story to simply a sharply-designed platformer, which may be enough for some.

What a unique puzzle game!
Recommended May 9, 2023
I love puzzle games. This one makes you think so much about perspective, size, distance, etc. There is so much thought that went into every single puzzle and it is so so good. Highly recommend. I love this so much.

I like the concept, but the controls aren't great and it seems like the gameplay mostly consists of finicky jumps. Also be warned, the story involves a dog dying.
