About this game
Shadowbound is a 2D pixel-art horror platformer with multiple chapters. The first chapter is focused on light mechanics. Some lamps stay forever, others disappear after a few seconds. Stay in the dark for too long and it’s game over. But the game isn’t only about this mechanic. Each chapter introduces something new: different gameplay mechanics, enemies, locations and challenges. Some parts focus on horror and atmosphere, others on reaction, precision or exploration.
Baal, one of the main protagonists of XWorld, embarks on an expedition to an unknown planet, where he encounters strange infected creatures.
