SteamAbout Shadow Rush
•
Shadow Rush is an isometric hack-and-slash RPG with a unique combat system.
•
Controls are simple: WASD to move, left click to attack and right click to dash.
•
BUT, every time you attack OR dash, you cycle through 4 phases:
•
Depending on the phase, every time you attack or dash you will trigger special abilities based on your set-up.
•
Note the I, II, III, IV besides the equipment slots on the inventory
The goal of the combat is to have a happy medium where you don't have to juggle multiple hotkeys like in an MMO, but it still requires active input and not nearly hands-off like in a Vampire Survivors-like

Don't worry about trying to dodge every hit. Health pickups are plenty. Just be aggressive and focus on killing enemies as fast as you can.
•
In fact if you take too long, a gigantic wave of darkness will swallow up the entire arena
•
After clearing an arena, you can choose a bonus and move on to the next
Choose 6 characters
•
Special abilities come in the form of collectable items known as 'Shards', which can be easily equipped, de-equipped and swapped between characters

Create the perfect game breaking-build by customizing your characters' Shard Deck
