Game Overview
Immerse yourself in the dark history of the distant future. After Shadows is a metroidvania with platformer elements. You find yourself in a distant post-apocalyptic world, where is nothing left of the former civilization, except for unclear memories, and where humanity has been replaced by bizarre strange creatures. You play as Ana, the half-elf. Dark Monster descended on her village and infected Ana’s mother. And now the main character will have to go to the ancient Fortress to find a cure. This Fortress is unexplored and full of dangers. It extends its way beyond the underground — into the terrible primeval darkness. And legend has it that in this darkness a brave adventurer can find both salvation and death. Game features:
- High complexity: There is no room for the weak in the world of the distant future. Explore the Fortress carefully — death is waiting for you with every step. Do you want to run past that cute bird? You’ll die. Did you accidently step on the branch? You’ll also die.
- Character development: Every death or victory doesn’t pass without a trace for you. A large selection of curses and rewards diversify the gameplay.
- Replayability: The darkness that lives in the Fortress wants to stop you and not let you get to the end. And so you will have to burnish the brain: each time of the game session the path changes – sometimes beyond recognition. Because the eternal night is dark and full of horrors.
- Dark, but attractive world: Examine the strange monsters that inhabit the Fortress. Find those who will help you in your progress — whether it’s Water Imp or an old metal robot. Just remember that not all creatures wish you well…
- Charming soundtrack: It will be easier to immerse in the world of After Shadows because of the dark, but attractive music. The frightening, meditative, beautiful and enthralling tracks are waiting for you.
- Attractive graphics: Every stone in the game, every creature, and every texture is created manually. After Shadows has an incredible attention to details.
- Different endings: Choose your path, and get the ending you deserve. No playing along on the developers’ part — the gameplay is designed so that it adapts to you, but not you to it.
- The intimacy of the story: We are a small indie team, so we are limited in our capabilities. However, we made best efforts to make the game more interesting and significant for a long time. I hope you will be interested in it!
