Shot in the Dark is a classic western tale that pits a lone bandit on a trail of vengeance against demons, cultists and other horrors hiding in the dark.
This exciting new game offers a unique challenge by combining a nail-biting pixel-perfect platformer with precise point and click shooting. Be on the lookout for glowing red eyes, shadows moving through the trees, and figures lurking in the night before they can strike. The only sign of a demon on your trail is the slight movement of the tall grass and sometimes all you can do is take a shot in the dark.
About Shot in the Dark
Shot in the Dark is a classic western tale of bloody vengeance, forbidden rituals, and teeth in the dark. Take up the gun of the lone bandit as they stop at nothing in the pursuit of vengeance. The only thing standing between the bandit and their quarry are the occult nightmares lurking in the darkness. From demons to cultists and long dead gunslingers, all manner of foes are arrayed against you.
Features:
- Speedrunners beware! Unseen demonic challengers await you in the night
- Experience tense and deliberate battles in the shadows of the old west
- Armed with only your six-gun, the bandit will need sharp eyes and quick hands to fight the horrors lurking in the dark
- Explore dilapidated towns bathed in a stark black, white, and red occult aesthetic
