Shadowdancer
A downloadable game
Shadowdancer
We created this game as an assignment for Unity + USC Games Unlocked course from February to April 2019. Our main goal was to create our first original 3D game, to test and expand our skills and knowledge of Unity, understand 3D game development better, and sharpen our project management skills.
The two of us (one programmer and one artist) managed to create this version in about 8 weeks from scratch.
Gameplay is about 5-10 mins. Prepare for bugs.

Thank you Dupat!
Got stuck multiple times in rocks. I do like the concept so.. I'll wait for updates. :)
Thanks! We encountered that problem before, it is a quite complex issue. Where did you got stuck? Were there any enemies involved?
There were several areas, I think it was because of trying to 'blink' to the edge of a rock, and the character kinda fell a bit and was stuck next to the edge, in the air. No enemies involved, with enemies I only got them to either kill me or attack me and not do any damage. :)
Yeah, poor fellow is oversized and sometimes you can easily sneak under their noses. I once get caught by them at the top of the ruined fence, where I thought will be a safe spot I add your feedback to my ever-growing bugfix list. Thanks!
