In this game you must stay in the shadows...

SCHiM is a unique little puzzle platformer where you must hop from shadow to shadow to get back to your human body after being separated!

[@nilsslijkerman]

Thanks for covering our game! Love your content, so watching you play SCHiM was super delightful. I will be using the Bridge Review score to convince potential players.

[@kellymoses8566]

Very original game!

[@michieleding1242]

Im creating games myself too (im very new though) so how long did this take you guys? Waht language/game engine did you use? Genuently interested

[@buckroger6456]

Seen this game quite some time ago and just hoped it'll get a physical release on switch.

[@alvinreinaldy5148]

Very nice game

[@nilsslijkerman]

@@michieleding1242 SCHiM took us 4 years of development time. It's made in Unity.

[@brigidtheirish]

My dad discovered grilling late in life. Started out with burgers and hot dogs, then tried to expand into chicken. His first attempt involved making tray out of tinfoil so there wouldn't be any dripping or bits falling off. Well, that worked until enough melted fat collected to rip through the tinfoil. I only heard the *"WOOSH,"* but one of my little sisters was out with him and said it created a Biblical pillar of fire. Dad almost immediately came in to announce that that chicken was done. He also moved the grill a little further away from the house after that.

[@lilyoftheflame]

Amazing.

[@brigidtheirish]

@@lilyoftheflame Yeah. Really wish we had video of it.

[@gaoth88]

Schim = dutch for shade/shadow/something imagined kind of a thing. It is a bit old-timey for a word that isn't thrown around often.

[@willemdegusseme3459]

I was just about to comment that!

Er zijn 2 nederlanders die dat weten en ze hebben elkaar gevonden

Cakes? Why on earth would you think they're cakes? Those are clearly cheese wheels.

That's a very Dutch thing though.

[@deanmanderfeld3385]

​@@LHyoutube It is made by dutch guys, and the houses and all are dutch too

The editor interrupting the playthrough to troll you is the best thing ever

[@vikingskol9151]

When?

[@kellysueballard7654]

I used to play the hopping from shadow to shadow game as a kid.

[@justynaz7520]

I think the little shadow was the joy of life, playfullness and curiosity. The boy was best friends with it as a kid, then less and less, and lost it completely at the lowest point of his adult life. The shadow frog eventually joined other detached shadows, just as lost as himself. Reminds us to pause sometimes, and let the joy back in.

[@karelpgbr]

5:41 That isn’t a boy, that is a common driver awareness doll, they are bright yellow or green with a red cap and flag, with the speed limit on them. You chain them up to lampposts on streets where people regularly speed, also most commonly found around schools!

[@karelpgbr]

12:03 Cheese, Matt, and the hotdog stand at graduation is an icecream stand 😂😂😂 It’s so funny being Dutch and recognising the different very Dutch things

[@iuhihs]

6:42 Now I am back in the bloke..giggity

[@InfernalWheel]

All those cracks about the stronest shape, yet no crack about landing in a bush. Seems like a missed opportunity IMHO. :P

[@S1dew1nderNL]

Lol, love it, i'm at animecon in the netherlands rn and they have their own booth showcasing this game!

[@aydendejong451]

5:44 I Think that is a plastic cut-out, meaning: kids are playing round here. We have those in the Netherlands

[@mathiasvofrey9240]

"even my shadow leaves me all alone at night" ...

[@jordannutt2238]

omfg i love this, the art style and the imagination straight outta peter pan, this just feels right as a game, as some passion project Childs imagination made real

[@lilythearcticfox]

Baby swans are called cygnets (don't ask me how to pronounce that cause idk) I'm not sure those are swans though. Baby ducks are ducklings And baby geese are goslings

[@MrHastygamer]

It’s a pretty scary idea that the shadows find children and control them.

[@LHyoutube]

9:02 - Baby swans are called cygnets 🙂

[@Eidenhoek]

Peter Pan-like No, a Peter Pan-them-up. There we go.

[@JustDezz]

[@aydendejong451]

12:00 those are probably cheese.

[@PoliceManFromBluey]

Reminds me of the Bluey episode “Shadowlands”

[@headrockbeats]

I think I've played this game. It's called "Running with Rifles".

To the people who litter in real life a lot because you're too lazy to find a trash can on your journey or you think the world likes your cigarette butts more than you do... maybe you think the world enjoys your wasted vapes too, who knows... though, to those kinds of people, you've earned an achievement: "Litter 100 times!"

"Yeah, listen. You're a wonderful worker. But we have to let you go. It's not you, you're wonderful. It's your shadow frog. It does nothing but jump between cubicles all day rebooting peoples computers while others are working."

[@Zowiezo101]

That "cardboard cutout" at 5:40 is actually a plastic sign reminding/alerting people on bikes and in cars that there's often kids playing nearby and to watch out

[@Blackread]

Matt conveniently left the other dev's last name unmentioned. 😂

[@nilsslijkerman]

I don't take it personally. My name is not easy, even Dutch people struggle.

Day 116 of notifying people that the Discord server's Suggestions forum is a better place to suggest new games to Matt. (Just don't ping him!)

Schim means shadow or shade or figment of imagination or apparition in Dutch. It’s funny how Dutch devs have a lot of creative ideas, like that ocean cleaning game you recently played
