Here’s some information about the game:
SCHiM is a game about jumping from shadow to shadow in a challenging and lively environment.
A schim is the soul and spirit of an object, thing, or living being. Everything in the world has one. A schim should NEVER be separated from their thing! This does happen to your schim, this schim who is attached to a human being is separated from him early on in the game.
Can you get back to him before it’s too late?
