Unlock Special Abilities for Cyber Shadow

Unlock Special Abilities

In Cyber Shadow there are various abilities (powerups) you can pick up as you progress through the game which you can then use in earlier levels to access areas in them that you couldn't before. These new abilities tend to be acquired later in the game and can be upgraded. When these abilities are upgraded additional functions become unlocked.

Shuriken

This is a throwing projectile that can damages enemies and turn on/off switches from afar.

Rising Fire

This ability throws fire projectiles that are particularly useful for taking down flying foes. They can also occasionally open paths you otherwise wouldn't be able to go through. Rising fire can deal devastating damage at close range.

Lightning Strike

The lightning strike allows you to strike enemies below you and bounce off them for strategic air-time. It will also add to your jump height.

Wall Slide

You will be able to slide to walls, whenever you bump onto them. Unlocks a multitude of traversal options in result.

Parry

Parry can be used to deflect incoming projectiles. The instant you deflect it, a stationary orb is created at the same spot. If you then attack that orb, it sends back the projectile in the form of a slash-like wave. Parry also replenishes your SP.

Sprint

While running, you have the option to slash forward. This will be a fair amount of distance and turn you invulnerable for the duration of the animation sequence.
