SCHiM means "elf-like thing" or "something that appears and disappears in the corner of vision" in Dutch.

SCHiM is a scrolling platform jumping game. Players need to control the protagonist SCHiM to move forward in the shadows. In addition to the shadows of various buildings, the lights at night, and the shadows cast by open windows can also become your foothold. These shadows will also lengthen and shorten over time. Players need to seize the right opportunity to "advance step by step and follow the shadows" in these shadows. Accompanied by the changing scenery and comfortable music of the level, experience this ordinary daily story with SCHiM. The game is now officially available on multiple platforms including Steam!



In addition, a new trailer that uses stop-motion animation style to introduce the charm of this game has been released. Click the link below to watch it. In this trailer, you can see the gameplay experience of previously unreleased levels. At the same time, players can also check the game store page through the link below and add the game to their wishlist.

story background

SCHiM, the mysterious beings that leap forward in the shadows, can be spotted in childhood, but will gradually cease to be seen as they grow older. SCHiMs exist in all shadows, and everything in the world has its own SCHiM. They will never leave their bodies.



However, one day, a SCHiM that had been silently watching over its host in the shadow of a human being was separated from its host! Can it return to its host before it is too late...?

Game Features

Jump between shadows! SCHiM can only move in the shadows of people and objects.



It's not limited to shadows cast by the sun. At night, you can also use shadows cast by windows and street lamps. At dusk, as the position of the sun changes, the length of the shadow changes, and the range of your movement will also expand. In addition, if you can seize the opportunity, you can also shuttle through the shadows of moving objects such as people and cars and travel far away.



Observe the timing and even the viewing angle carefully, and seize the opportunity to jump forward in the shadow.



The boxed version of this game (Nintendo Switch/PlayStation®4/PlayStation®5) is now on sale. The boxed version uses the illustration drawn by manga artist and illustrator Alakeiichi as the cover. A sticker of the illustration is permanently included as a bonus.



In addition, the boxed version also comes with a "double-disc soundtrack CD" and one of "two badges" as a first production bonus! (If you buy it at the PLAYISM official store, the bonus is two badges). The number of features is limited, so friends who are interested should hurry up and buy it.
