SCHiM is a game about jumping from shadow to shadow in a challenging and lively environment.

What is a schim?

A schim is the soul and spirit of an object, thing, or living being. Everything in the world has one. A schim should NEVER be separated from their thing! This does happen to your schim, this schim who is attached to a human being is separated from him early on in the game.
Can you get back to him before it's too late?

Features

Unique 3D platforming through shadows.
Animated shadow platforms and environments.
Each level has its own scenery with small stories.
A beautiful abstract world.

Winner of the color palette contest!

We have judged the 35 entries of the color pallete contest!

We were pleasantly surprised by the submissions. Some of them were a bit painful to our eyes but they sure made us laugh.

There was quite a good selection of finalists. We ended up having 7 options that we thought were interesting to test in-game.

Honorable Mentions

First of all, we would like to do a couple of honorable mentions:

Category number 1: Definitely not a fit for SCHiM but it sure looks interesting.

Category number 2: Unexpected interpretation of the contest

TheKindex posted a gif instead of one single image. In the gif, the outlines change color which is something that might be interesting to explore in the future, so definitely an honorable mention!
