Soul Shift


Soul Shift is a metroidvania action puzzle-platformer where you play as a shade that can possess other monsters and use their powers to fight, navigate, and eventually escape the dark and dangerous dungeon!

Yes, the game is a bit of a buggy mess; I was making big changes right up until the submission deadline (nearly 24hrs straight working on it was insane).
I hope you can enjoy Soul Shift for what it is, and the vision of what it could become <3
