Description

Path of Shadows is a 3rd Person Stealth Game for PC, Mac and Linux that combines the essence of stealth classics like the Tenchu Saga with the modern approach of recent gems like Mark of the Ninja and Dishonored. You control a reborn warrior in a mission to rescue a mysterious deity from a temple fortress. To aid you in this task, you are given the power of Shadow Control. To infiltrate the temple you will need to sneak past guards, teleport between shadows, create your own areas of darkness and strategically assassinate your targets.

History

Path of Shadows started as a student project we created while attending the Master in Game Creation at Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona, Spain). Originally a work of portfolio, the game was widely praised in the online gaming press for its unique visual style, atmosphere and innovative game mechanics. The original prototype was built using a custom enginein C++ in a 10 months schedule while we also worked on our part-time jobs. When we graduated, some of the artists at the original team took jobs in the AAA game industry. The rest of us thought about what we wanted to do and where to go next. After some thinking we decided to go indie and focus on building games we would like to play as traditional gamers. We want this to be the opportunity that let’s us expand the world and story of Path of Shadows, and create the next big saga of stealth games.
