Contrast Out Today on PS4, Free for PlayStation Plus
Contrast, our PS4 launch title, is out today. If you were born in the ’70s (as I was), or have watched “Arrested Development,” you’ll know the song “The Final Countdown.” It is cornily (Is that a word?) appropriate when your game is close to ...

Wot I Think: Contrast
An appropriate title indeed. ‘Contrast‘ refers to the fact this platformer (of sorts) involves switching between light and shadow in order to solve puzzles, and to the disparity between the glitz and glamour of old Paris’ surface and the thuggery a...

Contrast Video Review
A dreamlike platformer that does great things with shadows until it falls back on box-moving cliches.

Shadow Run: Contrast
Contrast does trailers really well, and really badly. The previous teaser trailer was a fine thing, but left it a bit obscure what was game and what was cutscene. The new trailer is another absolutely gorgeous thing – a real pleasure to watch – but I...

Contrast Gives Us 5 Screenshots Before Stepping Back Into The Shadows

Contrast Teases You with Sexy, Dangerous Shadowplay for the PS4
This clip for the indie title from Compulsion Games doesn’t explain a lot. What it does do is give you a window into an art-deco, burlesque-happy world where you’ll be able to go from human to shadow in an instant. The aesthetics look wonderful and t...

Contrast on PS4: Is There Truth in the Shadows?
I can attest that some of what you’re about to read is actually true, but how can a developer who has spent so much time hiding in the shadows be trusted to write a traditional blog post? Indeed. He can’t. But I digress. You want to know more about C...

The Soaring ’20s: Contrast Platforms On The Shadows
Shadows are total freeloaders. Don’t get me wrong: they look nice and all, but they don’t really do much of anything. Mine just tags along behind me, growing and shrinking at will, taunting me with its substantial insubstantial superpowers. But what...

Contrast's Beauty is in the Shadows
Murder, romance, and deception highlight the noire-tale of Contrast. These scenes play out in shadow on the walls of a world set in an early twentieth century European-style city. These twisting stories already happened, their silhouettes revealing the pa...
