Outline

An action game in which the player operates the hero, “Shadow Boy,” with the aim of reaching the top of a gigantic tower while unraveling the challenges that have been planted in various places: The game develops into a fantastic adventure in which Shadow Boy searches for his lost body. An entire game system based on the themes of light and shadow has been created, including rules in which the shadows cast by buildings and machines must be transferred to the player’s movements, and settings in which the shadows’ forms are changed by moving the light source within the game.
