You've Seen Games That Let You Play With Shadows Before, But Probably Not Like This

One of the best surprises at PAX East this past weekend was Contrast, a game from the upstart Canadian studio Compulsion. It's a platformer that lets you become your shadow and climb on other shadows.

You might have seen games like Lost in Shadow do something similar, but that game was not this dynamic and this, well, three-dimensional. Take a look at the video above and you'll see what I mean.

Contrast is set for release on Steam in May.
