Light Fall: Introducing the Shadow Strike

Hello everyone!

Today we’d like to share a new game mechanic that will be possible with the Shadow Core. It’s something we’ve been working on for a while and something we always wanted to do. Finally, after putting many hours into it and after a few iterations, we are now ready to present it publicly.

Behold, the Shadow Strike!

That’s right, you can now spin your Shadow Core at high speed and turn it into a weapon to break various elements of the game! Take control of the level and show everyone who’s the boss. The idea came from the clumsy nature of the main character, who inadvertently breaks things around him while travelling across Numbra.

Obviously, not all elements of the game are breakable. There is also a downside; you cannot move your character while you are taking control of the Core, so think carefully before going berserk!

Below are some other examples where this new in-game mechanic will come in handy.

We hope you are excited about this new mechanic, which will open up many possibilities for the level design. One thing is certain, with the Shadow Strike on your side, you will have what it takes to survive the many dangers of Numbra. We wanted to empower the player with this mechanic, you now have a clear impact on the world around you.
