## What is Shadow Slip?

Slip through the shadows. Outsmart the guards. Escape with the gem.

  Shadow Slip is a minimalist stealth puzzle game where every tap counts. Navigate through procedurally generated levels, avoid deadly vision cones, and reach the exit undetected.

  GAMEPLAY
  • Tap to move — simple controls, deep strategy
  • Dodge patrolling guards with real-time vision cones
  • Grab the gem and reach the exit before you're spotted
  • Use cover zones to hide in plain sight

  OUTSMART THE GUARDS
  • Guards patrol in unpredictable patterns — horizontal, diagonal, L-shaped, rectangular, and more
  • Some guards pause and scan their surroundings
  • Stationary sentries rotate endlessly, watching everything
  • Each level demands a new approach

  CHASE THE PERFECT RUN
  • Earn up to 3 stars by beating the par time
  • Achieve GHOST status by finishing undetected
  • Build streaks across consecutive flawless levels
  • Collect bonus gems for a time advantage
  • Track your personal best on every level

  INFINITE LEVELS
  • Every level is procedurally generated and unique
  • Difficulty scales smoothly — more guards, tighter gaps, faster patrols
  • Seeded generation means every level is fair and beatable

  PREMIUM EXPERIENCE
  • No ads. No in-app purchases. No internet required.
  • Sleek dark visuals with neon accents and atmospheric lighting
  • Haptic feedback for every close call and collect
  • Designed to be played in short bursts or long sessions

  One more level. You can stop anytime. But you won't.


## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.5 — 2026-04-15

What's New in Shadow Slip v1.5

  Decoy Orbs
  Collect the pink decoy orb to deploy a distraction at your position. All nearby guards turn to investigate, giving you precious seconds to slip past. Appears on level 4+ — use it wisely, the effect only lasts 5 seconds.

  Warp Pads
  Paired warp pads now appear in levels, letting you teleport across the map in an instant. Step on one pad to warp to its partner — perfect for bypassing tight guard formations. Look for the purple glow starting at level
  4.

  Milestone Celebrations
  Every 5 levels, you'll be greeted with a special gold intro and confetti burst. A small reward for your stealth skills as you push deeper into the shadows.

  Improvements
  - Version bumped to 1.5
  - New visual effects for decoy deployment, warp teleportation, and milestone intros
  - Guard AI now responds to decoy distractions with contextual behavior (stationary guards rotate to look, patrolling guards move toward the decoy)

  Shadow Slip v1.4 

  New Powerups

  - Speed Boost — Grab the orange lightning orb to double your movement speed for 5 seconds. First appears on Level 3.
  - Freeze — Collect the ice blue snowflake orb to freeze all guards in place for 4 seconds. First appears on Level 5.

  Level Generation Improvements

  - Fixed an issue where procedurally generated levels could create impassable wall configurations, blocking player progress.
  - Increased minimum gap width between barriers to ensure the player can always fit through.
  - Added multi-pass path validation: every generated level is now verified to have a clear route from start to gem to exit.
  - Fallback system automatically widens gaps or removes obstacles if a level fails validation.

  Bug Fixes

  - Guards no longer detect the player while frozen by the Freeze powerup.
  - Improved path-checking accuracy with a finer collision grid.
