Shadow Trick

Good concept, frustrating controls. I beat the 1st boss and would like to play more but cannot because the controls are so sluggish. It's also a bit jarring how the guy jumps back/forth when switching between shadow/real. I understand that the shadow is behind, but also its a game not real life - just have the guy turn into a shadow where he is standing. Same complaint with the controls really - game, not real life. I should be able to jump, then move direction. Worth a play but could be better.

Discovered this through online ads, and I'm not disappointed. It's fun to fill leisure time and genuinely took me back to the 2000s pixel games, but through phone. Sad that it only has 24 levels, the story is simple but maybe the devs could develop a 2nd series game. The only complaint I would have is the speed sometimes becomes slow when playing through app instead of website. Though this too is not too noticeable.

This has the potential to be a fun game, but the controls are extremely unresponsive- specifically the move left/right buttons. The jump control seems ok comparatively however. You can only take one damage before you die and have to start over from the beginning of the level as there are no checkpoints. So, the controls being sluggish cause frequent restarts. It is not really fun having to replay each level 10 or more times.
