In The Ombrographer, the fate of the world is not in your hands... You just had a freak alchemy accident, and you lost your body! The kingdom is not under attack, you don't need to save any princess: you just need to walk all the way back to your tower, fix the inconvenience, and get back to you usual business.
But there's a problem: losing your body turned you into a shadow, and shadows are notorious for not being able to do, like, anything. They can't even press a button! Even your alchemist powers are useless if you can't manipulate the materials. Unless...
Losing you physical form seems to have granted you unusual powers, and the place you're in seems to resonate with it. Maybe you'll learn a trick or two from this unexpected unpaid leave!
Use your newly acquired shadow alchemist powers to transmute hand shadows into tools and creatures, and find your way back to the tower (or the end of the demo)!

The puzzle idea is neat, and the system based approach of element interacting with each other could lead to a lot of cool Puzzle.
I must say I am a bit disappointed that the middle finger does nothing though >.>
Such a unique idea with cute art and fun puzzles
ah , mouse usage wasnt mentioned so didnt try it - got it now ! stuck on level 4 though - i think i know what to do but the positions i put the fingers in dont work ...
i dont understand what to do here - cant even get past the 1st gate on level 1 !
My friends got stuck too so it's definitely not just you x) I'm working on adding some text for the tutorial
In case you want to give it another go, you can try clicking on the shadow hand's fingers... maybe there's a shape you could try to reproduce? :eyes:
Thanks for testing even if you got stuck :')
