update details
Shadow of the Guild takes players to Aridia. This is the name of a scorched planet suffering from drought. The Rain Trade Guild, whose members live in a flying fortress and travel on airships, is responsible for providing people with water. The Eastern Empire is trying to break its monopoly. Emperor Getro III abandoned the services of the merchants and began scientific research in search of a way to take away their business. After 10 years, he manages to create artificial clouds. The merchants find out about this through their informants and send their man named Yaran on a mission. He is tasked with infiltrating a closed state and stealing technology. Users will have to play as this assassin. His adventures take place on 5 levels. Their passage in total can take 6-7 hours. The local setting crosses fantasy with steampunk.
Shadow of the Guild is a 2D side-scrolling action platformer. It has elements of beat-em-up and role-playing game. The protagonist can be made into a warrior, assassin or mage. There are 3 leveling trees. The anti-hero is able to run in different directions, jump, somersault, crouch, cast spells, strike with blades, commit hidden murders, throw weapons, use consumable items, and perform combos. When performing special attacks, a small window appears in the center of the screen for a few seconds. Inside it plays a short video with hand-drawn graphics. It shows how the main character deals with his current rival. Such finishing moves are accompanied by blood and dismemberment.
