Jan. 2025

This game ages very well; The character is super cute and it has an amazing art and music/SFX! Loved the story and the puzzles (some took a bit longer but got the hang of it in no time); Really liked it! Recommend 100%

Dec. 2024

The first game I ever bought on Steam. I got it because I saw my sister watch a gameplay video and I LOVED the narrator's voice. I enjoyed the story, the locations and the puzzles. Using colors is such a great idea!

Sept. 2024

Nihilumbra is still a good-looking platformer for its age. There are a good amount of levels and it didn't feel repetitive, so the price is okay for me. After you finish the story, you can play through the game again, but on increased difficulty. This is where it really picks up and where you really notice the age of the game. You're more likely to die because of the controls. But since you only have to play this part for achievements, you can ignore it.

Born as part of the void, I yearn to escape from it. The void chases me, trying to devour me. The void annihilates everything behind me. 공허에서 탄생했으나, 공허로부터 탈출하리라.

June 2024
