Yacht Club Games is planning to unveil the latest cyber ninja game, Cyber Shadow, at PAX East this week. In Cyber Shadow – the newest addition to the Yacht Club Games roster – the world has been taken over by synthetic lifeforms. A desperate plea for help sets Shadow on a journey to uncover what set the world on the path to perpetual ruin. Slash through techno hordes, leap past traps, and nimbly navigate the ruins of Mekacity. Only you can unlock the secrets to your clan's ancient powers in Cyber Shadow – a quintessential take on the ninja action genre.

Gameplay Features
Dash, slice, and leap through masterfully designed levels filled with sharply honed ninja platforming action.
Authentic 8-bit presentation with handcrafted sprites, a detailed pixel aesthetic, and perfect controls. Modern touches like fluid animation, multi-layered parallax backgrounds, and evolved game design.
Take down more than a dozen apocalyptic bosses – from enormous war machines to your synthetic clan rivals.
Relive the authenticity of classic 8-bit challenge or experience it for the first time ... with an added convenience or two.
Rescue your clan to unlock permanent Ninjutsu skills and abilities – combining them seamlessly as only the warrior of legend could.
Search for secrets as you explore the ruined world. Return to your old haunts to find supplies, items, and upgrades.
Experience a gripping story – told both in-game and through animated cinematic story scenes between the action. Who can be trusted? How far will Shadow go to protect his clan and the one he loves?
Pulse-pounding soundtrack by Enrique Martin, produced by Jake Kaufman.
This is extremely promising considering how amazing Shovel Knight was.
I do like the direction Yacht Club Games is going with this one!
