About Shifted Heart

✦ AI summary

Awaken as a shapeshifting Shifter in a dark underground world and use 15 creatively combined spells to solve environmental puzzles, defeat bosses, and uncover mysterious lore across eight distinct areas. This Metroidvania stands out by letting you freely mix and match abilities in unexpected ways to tackle obstacles however you see fit, making your own path through a world that doesn't want you there.

Shifted Heart is a 2D Sidescrolling Metroidvania. Progression will be tied to use of abilities learned through exploration. How will you scale this cliff? Navigate past these spikes? Clear that chasm? Take down this boss? If you can find a clever way to use your spells, you will craft your own answer to these questions, and many more!
