Mostly positive on Steam
“...smart paced and extremely rewarding.”
4.5/5 · Co-Optimus “...really amazing and a lot of fun.”
90/100 · Gamers Haven “Moving light sources around the screen to help the shadow get around is a fantastic idea and sets Shadow Puppeteer apart from the vast majority of platformers on the market which use more basic jump mechanics to engross the player.”
