Cyber Shadow is an authentic 8-bit homage to the grueling action-platformers of yesteryear. You all took on the challenge! Now, we'd be honored if you'd help nominate Cyber Shadow for the Steam Awards! Feel free to nominate it for whatever you want! We'd suggest either "Best Game You Suck At" or "Best Soundtrack"! Here are some details about each category: Best Game You Suck At - This is the game that rewards persistence, and is not for the faint of heart. It's the toughest game we've ever loved. Best Soundtrack - This unsung hero deserves to be recognized for its outstanding musical score. It's the OST with the MOST! We whole heartedly appreciate your support! Sincerely, Mechanical Head Studios & Yacht Club Games
