Your past moves are catching up.
Shadow Ahead is a one-finger falling arcade game where the danger is more than the machinery around you. A living shadow echoes your recent movements, closes the gap and overtakes you. Every dodge leaves a path it can follow.
MASTER THE FALL
Steer through an industrial shaft filled with moving obstacles, blades and narrow passages. Drag left or right to move, up to shrink and down to expand. Read the opening, choose your shape and make it through.
OUTSMART YOUR SHADOW
Watch the warnings and keep track of your echo. The shadow can move from behind you to ahead of you, changing the danger as you descend. Timing and positioning matter as much as quick reactions.
MAKE EACH RUN COUNT
Collect orbs and spend them on permanent upgrades. Unlock acceleration and braking, improve your bomb's impact and stun, and build a new approach for your next descent.
KEEP GOING DEEPER
Chase your personal best through changing obstacle layouts. A run ends, but the next attempt is only a restart away.
AN INDUSTRIAL WORLD WITH A PULSE
Descend through towering machinery, drifting smoke and pools of warm light. Atmospheric music, sound cues and optional vibration bring the shaft to life.
