Your past is two seconds behind.

Every move leaves a trail. In Shadow Echo, that trail comes back to kill you.

Keep moving right, cross the traps, and reach the exit before your own shadow catches up. It repeats your exact path two seconds later, turning every pause and every jump into a decision.

35 courses. One way out.

  • 35 continuous, challenging courses with distinct layouts and obstacle patterns.
  • Crumbling bridges, spike pits, and five enemy types: crawlers, hoppers, bats, sentinels, and chargers.
  • Quick retries and variable-height jumps.
  • A stark pixel-art world with a chiptune soundtrack.

Reach each exit to continue automatically. Keep your momentum and leave the echo behind.
