Split this one into parts because honestly It deserves to be a two part series.
Honestly, I love this game. I've played it to the end and loved every minute of it. The story ended where it should end and not to any length that a normal apocalyptic horror game would. The fact that you could personalize the characters names also played a good part in the story too to drag you into the story even more than the dialogue.
It's perfect in it's own morbid, cheesy way. And boy, do I love Cheese.
That was touching. You really feel like your right there at the end of the world. Everything felt so real. Keep up the god work and never give up on this. Because its not justa game on the computer. Its somthing that you made it is now apart of you. Keep it up cant wait for the rest.
That was SO GOOD! Oh man I loved that, there was so much feeling and emotion and atmosphere in that tiny little game. I want to know more, I want to know where he really came from, where they're going, if they lasted! Oh man. I loved that.
Nice work! Though, we're still craving the back-story of the apocalypse's last radio DJ. :P
We only played one route: the female's positive(?) ending. It was a casual, sweet story; so we recommended it to our young audience. Hope y'all keep collaborating to make new story-driven games like this one.
This game is wonderful! It has a great emotional narrative that perfectly matches the setting the game takes place in. The soundtrack is fitting with an ambient type of sound. The instruments consists of an acoustic guitar and piano. There are two story lines in the game which both come from the view of the guy and the girl. I really enjoyed playing this game and highly recommend you play it for yourself.
I made a video of me playing the game so here's the link to it:
Excuse me, I wanted to play the game since it has very good reviews, and it looks amazing. I tried downloading it with the downloads given that included apple (since I have an OS X.) but it said that this game was only for windows? Can someone help me?
the game says its for OS X but i'm pretty sure the download is a .exe only and .exe is exclusive to windows users so unfortunatly the game is not yet avaliable they may be working on it though
I haven't tried booting it up on my MacBook, but once you've unzipped it to your local drive, you should be able to play the game by clicking the Shadows.app bundle instead of the Shadows.exe Windows executable.
I really loved it. Short, but packed with emotion and feeling. It felt very human to me, like how I would feel on the run from zombies. The dialogue was good, the music and sound effects were spot on. Well done! The only downside was that the endings left me wanting more!
Really well done! I'm impressed by what was accomplished in just four days! The art is very nice and polished, the use of colors looked very pretty, the music works well and timed nicely, and the characters dialogue was well written. I liked doing the voices for them and learning about them. I look forward to your future games!
(Is there any chance for a follow up story featuring them?)
Hey. I expected this game to a "Meh..." But I played it and it was actually REALLY fun Any know there was no action, the lighting, music, and art style was awesome! Would really love more added!

Hey had a lot of fun playing this, am really going to try to go for all endings but I wanted to share that I played this on my channel. Naturally I linked people to this game in my description
A very emotional game, and it made me think a lot. I love this game. It seems so human, and not cinematic like normal "Zombie Apocalypse" games/movies.
lol, I almost cried. It was so sad at times. I loved it 100 percent of it though. My favorite part, though? Their reactions to the music. 10/10 would play again.
An absolutely beautiful game! I have to say it is a sensory overload to my eyes and ears, which is a good thing! :P I LOVED the music and the art, I can't express that more! It brought back memories of my childhood as well, weird I know.. But have a look at my let's play and you shall see why! :)
This is a really nice and creative little game. The art style is cool, the music is calm and weird but works for the story, and the writing is all well done. I have to say I didn't really expect the games story to go where it actually did. At first I was expecting the two to simply be traveling cross country together. But when what really happened comes about, it honestly makes the game make that much more sense. I also like how there are more than one ending to the story based on how you respond and who you play as throughout the game. All in all an awesome little visual novel with a close to home feel. I did a video on my experience with Shelby's story if anyone is interested. I definitely plan on going back and playing through Dustin's side and seeing how it differs from Shelby's.
Also please subscribe I could definitely use the support plus I play a lot of these games from this website and more also with anime reviews and much more :)

I'll try that, thanks.
First game I've ever paid for on itch.io and for good reason, too.

Short but touching story. Good writing. Pretty nice game.

Is there a spoiler free guide for this game? I'm doing a let's play on this game but keep getting the same ending for Shelby's route.
Hey. I expected this game to a "Meh..." But I played it and it was actually REALLY fun Any know there was no action, the lighting, music, and art style was awesome! Would really love more added!
