ShadowSight
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
You only see what your character sees.
This is the free demo. The full game is coming to Steam.
ShadowSight is a top-down multiplayer shooter built around a vision cone. Walls hide your enemies, every corner is a risk, and the footsteps you hear matter as much as the players you can see. The vision cone is real lighting, so anything outside your line of sight stays dark.
In the full game
- Real line-of-sight fog of war – walls and cover block your vision, and footsteps give away what you can't see.
- 5 game modes – Free For All, Team Deathmatch, Infected, Capture the Flag and Defuse.
- 10 levels – desert bases, a ruined village, schoolyards, a neon city street, a starship hangar and more.
- 46 weapons – rifles, shotguns, snipers, launchers, melee, and staffs that cast bolts, meteors and skeletons.
- Create a Class – build six classes from weapons, throwables, gadgets and 13 perks, from Dash and Teleport to Invisibility and a deployable Turret.
- Earn gold, unlock gear – every match pays gold to spend on new weapons, perks, gadgets, character skins and extra loadout slots.
- Host or join in seconds – LAN discovery, direct-IP join and password-protected lobbies.
What's in the demo
Play Desert Outpost in every game mode with the starter loadout: Assault Rifle, Shotgun, Sniper Rifle, Pistol, Frag Grenade, Stim and the Shielded perk. Everything else is on show in the Shop and unlocks in the full game.
Playing online
One player hosts and everyone else joins their IP address on port 7777 (UDP).
- Same network: press Search LAN and pick the game.
- Over the internet: the host forwards UDP port 7777 on their router, or everyone joins the same virtual LAN with a free tool such as ZeroTier or Tailscale.
- Windows asks to let the game through the firewall the first time you host. Allow it, or other players won't be able to connect.
