Cyber Shadow was available for test play at PAX East 2019. Hunziker described Cyber Shadow as a Nintendo Entertainment System-inspired game that had the principle level designs of Super Mario, the action of Ninja Gaiden, enemy designs of Contra, and the dark visual aesthetic of Batman: The Video Game on the NES.Ĭyber Shadow was officially announced on March 27, 2019, with a one minute-forty second long announcement trailer displaying the game's gameplay, combat, and plot. Since then, Yacht Club Games have been supervising the development of the game as well as managing the marketing, porting, publishing for Cyber Shadow as well as giving Hunziker design feedback. Initially, Hunziker had no plans to have a publisher for the game until Yacht Club Games, the developer for Shovel Knight, approached him in 2017, which he considered to be the only company that could help him publish the game.
