Cyber Shadow is exactly what you'd expect it to be. A linear "ninja" platforming game that takes a lot from the likes of Ninja Gaiden, Shadow of the Ninja and Shatterhand. It basically hits all the notes those games do while being much more fair, dropping mechanics like lives systems and having much better level design. The other draw this game has is the way you get upgrades and get more abilties to utilize which is probably the strongest part of the game. Being fully powered up is a great feeling and gives you freedom on how to handle situations. Main issues come in the form of poorly designed segments and the odd lack of invincibility frames when hit, allowing you to get stun locked and I don't care for the backtracking you need to do to get 100%. Definitely worth checking out.
