Fading Shades is a small 1st person adventure game, set in an unknown location.
The only way out is by crossing the rainbow bridge but you can't as long as there
are colours missing...
The story behind Fading Shades
Fading Shades started out as a simple idea, that later evolved into a game. In
its early stages, I used a program called Medi8tor, which was not appropriate
for game development. I did the majority of the graphics in 2005.
In 2006 I teamed up with
Mr.Lou / Dewfall Productions,
who composed the cool ingame music. He also had lots of ideas for the game concept,
so he has indeed inspired me a lot.
Same year I discovered a free program suiteable for making adventure games,
called Adventure Game Studio (AGS).
The game was then redone from scratch.
During 2007, I hardly worked on it at all, but in 2008 I pulled myself together and finished it.
Links
I've gathered some Fading Shades links, that could be worth a visit.
AGS made Fading Shades their Pick of the Month May 2009, which was really surprising. (In a positive way of course). Visit the AGS Games page here
At Ultimate Game Solutions, Leon wrote a complete walkthrough. So if you get stuck or decide to cheat, this is where to look
I got contacted by Marlene "The Cat", who has made this nice video walkthough of the game. I'm really honored to see my game in a video walkthrough. View it here
Marlene "The Cat" has also done a very thorough video walkthough with commentaries. So if you're wondering about certain things in the game, your questions will be answered for sure by watching this.

By coincidence I stumbled upon this review on a blog called "an occasional player's review" Read the review here
I will continue to add links if I find more. If you are aware of any kind of Fading Shades mention, that is not on this list, please let me know :-)
