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.

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.
Delusional. When playing games like this you'd expect graphics and narration to be the main focus, and they're both really below average. Level design is boring and repetitive, physics are slippery and controls are not precise. Inertia doesn't exist while falling but does exist while jumping, little imperfections in shadow's shapes make you lose speed and momentum, etc. As a puzzle games fan, I'm really disappointed.
ОЦЕНКА: 3 / 5 Идея оригинальная, но играть не очень интересно.
Pretty cool. Reminds me of that Tool song...
In my shadow é um jogo de plataforma 2D onde você manipula objetos 3D em quartos para que suas sombras formem as plataformas que seu personagem irá pular. Não é um jogo difícil, é um jogo moderadamente curto, com mecânicas simples e uma história que mesmo não sendo complexa te faz pensar um pouco sobre suas relações familiares. Achei a ideia do jogo é MUITO boa, entretanto ela não é bem executada no jogo, as opções de armadilhas e plataformas são muitos iguais e talvez por ele ser curto você termina ele com uma sensação de mau aproveitamento, Possui também alguns bugs que podem te frustrar caso você os pegue, como plataformas que quebram direto sem que o tempo certo tenha passado ou meu minha conquista era pra ter completado porém não foi, mas nada que uma respirada funda e convicção para seguir em frente. Se você chegou aqui pode pensar: "ué com tudo isso você ainda recomenda o jogo ?", sim, ainda recomendo, pois com todos os seus problemas ainda é uma experiência interessante poder atravessar o cenário posicionando suas próprias plataformas. PEGUE NA PROMOÇÃO QUE É DELICINHA DEMAIS. Nível na escala de divertimento: PO É DE TRISTE, COMO ASSSSSSSSSSSSIMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!! SAD VIBES TRISTE DE PULAR E NÃO ENCOSTAR EM SOMBRAS ESPINHOSAS!!!! Diga que ama sua família, se a amá-la obviamente, mesmo que eles saibam que vocês o tem no coração, sempre é importante falar o que sente pra que arrependimentos não acabem o assombrando.
What a unique puzzle game!
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.
