Introduction
This is the Deadside, the Wasteland, the nothing beyond the bone-backed gates. Here the true darkness at the heart of all things is made real.
What we see in death's dominion is as void as a dead man's gaze, as cold as the light from a dying star.
Dr. Victor Batrachian
There is a place beyond death, where every soul that has ever shuffled off this mortal coil finds its spiritual home. It is a place that has no boundaries, no hope, no past and no future, trapped as it is in an unending present.
A country of the dead, where the massed ranks of billions upon billions of souls range across a limitless expanse to a dead horizon, shuffling through the echoing halls of vast, funereal palaces, trudging over blasted plains, putrid with morbid vegetation. This is the place known as Deadside.
For many thousands of years, the ShadowMen have protected the world of the living against threats crossing over from the spiritual plane known as Deadside - the place where everyone goes, without exception, when they die.
Michael LeRoi is the current heir to the mysteries of this ancient lineage - bearer of the Mask of Shadows. When darkness falls, he becomes the Walker Between the Worlds, Immortal Voodoo Warrior, Taker of Souls, Lord of Deadside... the ShadowMan.
Shadow Man - The Video Game
As a god I step forth upon the writhing suppurating surface of the Deadside serpent. What sleep is here? What dreams there are in the unctuous coilings of the snake's mortal shuffling.
Weapon in my hand. My hand the arcing deathblow at the End of All Things. The horror. The horror. I embrace it...
Guy Miller, Deadside Dreams
Set against the mysterious backdrop of Voodoo mythology, Shadow Man puts you in the role of Mike LeRoi, English Literature graduate turned hired assassin. Operating within the mephitic, seedy underworld of New Orleans, Mike has the ability, at will, to cross over into Deadside where he becomes the Shadow Man.
The story begins with a dream - a prophetic nightmare vision of Armageddon, the day that the dead rise up and walk the earth, an Apocalypse that has its origins firmly rooted in Deadside.
When Mama Nettie - the powerful voodoo sorceress who created the Shadow Man by forcibly implanting the powerful Shadowmask in Mike's

In-Game Options
The following options are available:
•
SHADOWMETER: This option allows you to choose whether or not the Shadow Display is always on-screen, or appears only when needed. Use and to toggle between ON and AUTOHIDE.
•
REVERSE SNIPE: This function reverses the direction of the UP and DOWN controls during Snipe mode. Turned ON, pushing causes Mike/Shadow Man to look DOWN, and vice-versa. Use and to toggle ON or OFF.

Ambidexterity
Mike / Shadow Man is ambidextrous, a feature which allows any weapon / item combination in any hand. Pressing Left Hand or Right Hand will cause him to perform an action with his left/right hand or the weapon/item held in it.
Quick-Draw and Fire
Providing Mike / Shadow Man does not have his Handgun/Shadowgun drawn, and the relevant hand is empty, pressing Left Hand or Right Hand will Quick-Draw and fire the Handgun/Shadowgun.
Performing Actions
The Action button is used in context sensitive cases (such as pulling a lever), for which Mike / Shadow Man should be stood in the correct position. Some actions require the use of objects from Mike / Shadow Man's inventory. In these cases, use the Left Hand / Right Hand controls to use that object as required.
Sniping
Pressing Snipe takes Mike / Shadow Man into Snipe (or '1st Person') mode. Using the Forwards, Backwards, Left or Right controls allow him to look around to target enemies. Pressing Snipe again will disengage Snipe mode.
Our hero cannot move, jump, or swim while sniping.
Strafing
The Strafe controls allow Mike / Shadow Man to move sideways, ideal for keeping aim as he runs across the ends of corridors. Holding Strafe and pushing Left/Right will allow Mike/Shadow Man to make running sidesteps. Pressing Strafe Left or Strafe Right (applicable only in certain controller configurations) has the same effect.
Lock-On Strafing
When Mike/Shadow Man's firing is automatically locked on to a target, using the Strafe controls will actually move Mike / Shadow Man in a circle around the closest target, pushing Forwards / Backwards to move him in closer/ further away. A cursor will appear to indicate which enemies are currently targeted.
Holding the Snipe control during this mode deactivates Lock-On Strafing, allowing Mike / Shadow Man to move sideways.
Crouching
Holding Crouch drops Mike / Shadow Man to a crouched position that not only makes him a smaller target for enemies, but also allows him to duck below moving objects.
Pushing Crouch whilst Mike / Shadow Man is running or strafing causes him to drop to the ground and perform a dramatic roll into his crouched position. Pushing Backwards while rolling forwards will roll him into a crouch and end up facing in the opposite direction.
Jumping
Pushing Jump will initiate a vertical jump. Pushing Jump while running forwards allows Mike / Shadow Man to perform a long horizontal jump. Pushing Jump while strafing left and right results in a sideways (horizontal) leap. Pushing Jump while moving backwards produces a backwards horizontal leap.
All jumps will gain additional momentum and clear more distance if Mike / Shadow Man is at his maximum running speed. While in mid-air, he can also be made to drift by pushing Left, Right, Forwards or Backwards.
Edges and Ledges
Once Mike / Shadow Man has grasped hold of a ledge (for which he must have at least one hand empty), he will hang from it. In this position, he can not only climb up and over, but also to work his way along it and snipe at
