Which faction will you align with? The Caretakers, keepers of all things natural. The Fused, cyborgs who embrace technology. Age of Legend, creators of monstrous creatures. And more! www.nextplayergames.com/sod #nextplayergames #ShadowsofDawn #gameart #GameDev #UE #UE5 #indiedev

Too much freedom in game systems creates instability. In Shadows of Dawn we let players choose their paths freely: speed, damage, stealth, regen, etc. To avoid degenerate playstyles, we preemptively build the most extreme combinations we can imagine to test them before we ship.
