About Nightshade Archary

Nightshade Archery is built on one unusual idea: you jump on your arrow. Firing it creates the surface you need to reach higher tiles, so shooting is not a combat action that happens alongside platforming — it is the platforming. Aim badly and there is nowhere to land. Each level brings different enemies, which you can attack and destroy with the same arrow, but touching one directly kills you, so the arrow has to do double duty as both weapon and staircase without ever putting you in contact with what you are shooting. The object you are ultimately after is the Key, which opens the door out of a level once you have collected it.

How to Play

On Android, press the left arrow key on the left side of the screen to move left and the right arrow beside it to move right, with a marked jump key for jumping. Fire an arrow and jump onto it to reach higher tiles. Destroy enemies with your arrow and avoid touching them, then find and collect the Key to open the door.

Tips & Tricks

Place the arrow where you want to stand, not where the enemy is — height comes first and kills follow from position. Never approach an enemy on foot when an arrow can reach it. Look for the Key's location before climbing, so you are not stranded at the top of a route that does not lead to it.
