Shadow Complex is a downloadable 2D action platformer for the Xbox 360, much in the vein of Super Metroid and Castlevania Symphony of the Night. It focuses on exploration and acquiring power ups that let you further explore the world in which you are thrust into. The game was released on the Xbox Live Arcade on August 19, 2009.

Aiming

1. Aiming in Shadow Complex can be surprisingly tricky due to the quasi 3D gameplay style of the game.
2. When enemies are to the left and right of you on the same 2D plane that you're on, you can aim your weapon up and down with the Right Stick just like you normally would for a game like this. Always aim for headshots whenever you can.
3. However, in Shadow Complex, enemies can also attack you from the background. When this happens, your gun will generally automatically align itself with the background and from there you must fine tune your aim with the right stick.

Use Your Secondary Weapons!

1. Due to the fact that its sometimes hard to aim the way you want to, especially when dealing with enemies in the background, secondary weapons like grenades and missiles are invaluable when it comes to taking out a group of enemies all at once.
2. You don't ever need to be conservative with your grenades as they're pretty much constantly restocked by very common ammo boxes.

Take Note of the Environment

1. This is extremely important both offensively and defensively. Enemies in Shadow Complex are generally pretty stupid and won't start shooting at you until you fire first or you get really close to their line of sight.
2. Use this to your advantage by planning out your attack instead of just rushing in. If there is a way to get to higher ground so you can shoot down on enemies and hit them over their cover, do that instead of just running in guns blazing.
3. You should also always be on the lookout for boxes and other chest high objects that you can use as cover. The best way to avoid taking damage is by crouching behind a box, popping out, shooting a grenade over, and then quickly ducking back into cover.
4. The environment can also be used as an offensive tool. Look for explosive barrels, little explosive enemies called bombers that frequently walk on ceilings right above enemies' heads, electrical wires, grenade pipes, etc. Using these objects to your advantage will surely make tough fights much easier.

The Flashlight

1. Jason starts off the game with the flashlight and it actually ends up being one of his most useful tools.
2. In addition to illuminating dark areas, the flashlight also has the nifty feature of identifying destructible parts of the environment.
3. Destructible objects are color coded in accordance to what item you need to break them. Here is what the colors correspond to:

• Orange: Gunfire
• Green: Grenade
• Purple: Foam Gun
• Blue: Friction Damper
• Red: Missile

Explore!

1. Don't be held down by the linear nature of this walkthrough. Use it only when you get stuck and explore on your own to get the most out of the game.
2. Exploring not only helps you by leading to you finding weapon, armor, and health upgrades, but it also grants you experience whenever you find a new area. More experience means more accuracy and precision with your weapons.

1. When the game begins, you take control of an already super suit powered soldier named Colonel Sam Dallas.
2. When Dallas reports in to his superior to tell him of the situation, he is told to stand down. But with his new power suit that he's stolen from the enemy, Colonel Dallas decides to disobey orders and take matters into his own hands.
3. This is where you come in. Head forward a bit, hop over the dumpster, and jump right into the firefight.
4. Feel free to play around with your toys here, as you're going to lose all of them soon enough. Switch between your secondary weapons with the Control Pad and fire them with the Right Bumper. Try to save your missiles for the incoming helicopter.
5. You can use melee attacks on enemies on the same 2D plane as you by rushing up to them and pressing the B button. Try it now on one of the enemies near the car.
6. Once you destroy the helicopter and the rest of the enemies in the area, a cutscene will play, a conspiracy will be revealed, and the Vice President of the United States will be dead.

1. After you finish the introduction, the real game will start as you're introduced to Jason Flemming and his date, Claire.
2. Claire will go down into the caves first and when you gain control of Jason, you'll be able to follow her down.
3. NOTE: The only item you have at your disposal at the moment is the flashlight. Press LB to turn it on and off. Use it to illuminate dark areas and highlight breakable objects.
4. Follow the path downwards and you'll eventually find Claire's Climbing Gear. Jason will put the gear on and it will allow him to grab on to ledges and perform wall jumps.
5. Backtrack a few steps back to where the waterfall was and jump on to the ledge to the left.
6. Keep on heading left until you reach the edge. Back up a few steps and then hold X to get a running start so you can jump over the gap and reach the other side.
7. Head all the way down to the end of the path and then drop down through the trap door.
8. The trap door will close and you'll see a group of guards walking through with your captured girlfriend. Once they leave, jump back up and head through the door to the left.
9. A cutscene will highlight a Map Console that Jason will use to find out where Claire is being held. In the future, whenever you see these consoles, press B nearby to add their map data to your own map.
10. The security camera overhead will close the door you need to go through if it catches you in its sight for too long. Hold down X and run past it to make it through the door before the camera is able to catch you.
11. Continue down the stairs, down the ladder, and then drop through the hole in the floor.
12. Turn on your flashlight if you haven't already to light the way. Head to the wall to the left and then jump up to grab hold of the ledge inside the ventilation duct.
13. Work your way up the ducts until you reach a room with a monitor. Watch the cutscene and you'll be able to claim your pistol.

• YouTube Video: Shadow Complex: Objective 1 (Time: 3:57)

1. As soon as you get your pistol, a turret will activate up above. Shoot it down by aiming at it with the Right Stick, and then shooting with the Right Trigger.
2. Once the turret is dead, return to the vents and navigate through them until you find a vent grating on the right that you can break with your pistol. Head through and you'll find your first Health Upgrade.
3. TIP: You may have noticed that the minimap displayed a question mark in the box where you found the health upgrade. Whenever there is a question mark, it means that there is some kind of upgrade or collectible in the area. When it displays a dot, it means that the collectible in this area has already been found.
4. Drop down out of the vents and then head through the door to the right.
5. Climb up the ladder and then move to the right side of this room. You'll see two breakable grates, one at the top and one down below. They both lead to essentially the same area, but the one on the top will put you in a more advantageous position, so use that one.
6. Climb through the vents until you see arrows pointing down. Drop through the hole and you'll wind up in an area guarded by three enemies. Pick off the one in the background up top first since he's the only one that can hit you from this position.
7. The rest of the enemies can be taken out normally, but if you want to have a little fun with your enemies, try shooting the bomber hanging above the enemy in the middle. It'll drop and explode right at his feet.
8. Head to the right side of the room and break the grate on the floor to fall through and find the first Passkey Component.
9. Head back up and proceed through the door to the right. Straight ahead is another Map Console so press B next to it and add another section to your map.
10. Climb up the ladder and enter the room to your right to save your game, then jump back down and enter the next room to your right.
11. Shoot the turret up above and then activate the elevator by standing on it and pressing down. As your heading down, note the red grates overhead. Red grates can be destroyed by missiles so make sure to come back here once you get the missile upgrade.
12. Once the elevator stops, head through the door to the right and you'll find a unaware enemy standing right in front of you. Move in close to him and press B to execute a devastating melee attack.
13. Jump in the water and swim all the way to the right side of the room. You can swim underwater, but take note of your oxygen level.
14. The door to your right leads to a room that only has doors you can't access yet, so instead just jump up to where the bomber is crawling around.
15. Keep jumping up the various platforms until you reach the top where there will be a couple of explosive barrels. Shoot them and then head through to the next room on the right.
16. Crouch under the crawl space, kill the Bomber, and then start jumping from ladder to ladder as you make your way up.
17. A enemy soldier will be overlooking you and a bomber will be hanging over him. Shoot the Bomber to let it fall on the soldier to take out two birds with one stone.
18. Climb up the next ladder and then continue through the door to your right to reach a save room.
19. Through the next door to your right is a small connector room containing a Health Upgrade. This is the easiest collectible to find in the game so make sure not to miss it.
20. Continue to the next room and melee the poor guard who has his back towards you.
21. Shoot the bomber down below to take it out along with the guard underneath it and then jump down to the bottom level of this area.
22. Head to the left and you'll notice a door that glows green when you shine your flashlight on it. These doors can only be taken out with grenades, which you'll be getting very soon.
23. Jump up to the platform above the door, kill the bomber, and then work your way through the small passage until you're able to drop down into the room below.
24. Jason will pick up the grenades and you'll now be able to blow away the door to the right.
25. TIP: When using a grenade to blow open a door or grate, the easiest way to do so with out having the grenade bounce off is by holding down LT to crouch, and then pressing RB to lay down the grenade.
26. Head to the right a bit and you'll be confronted with your first boss fight.

BOSS - WSA Tarantula IFV

1. When the boss starts running into the foreground, use this time to position yourself behind the rocks and crouch for cover.
2. Jump up and shoot grenades underneath the boss's belly, but then crouch behind the rocks once it starts shooting.
3. When the robot steps back, it will break open a gas pipe, which will ignite for massive damage if you shoot a grenade into it.
4. After you ignite the gas, the boss will charge forward and force you back into the room where you found the grenades. When it comes down right next to the door, it will break another gas pipe and allow you to set its under carriage ablaze yet again.
5. Keep up this process of shooting grenades whenever the boss is over one of the two gas pipes and it should fall in about three or four hits.

1. Shoot the enemy that pops out of the disabled robot and then jump up to the green door on the right side. Blow it up with a grenade to reach a save room with another Map Console.
2. Head through the connector room to the right to reach a room with three guards. You can kill the two guards quickly by shooting the wire hanging over their head, or by just using one of your grenades.

7. Drop down to the bottom and then crawl through the tunnel to the left to reach a pool of water.
8. Jump into the water and then quickly swim to the right until you find an opening up above where you can take a breath. Once you refill your air, go back down and keep swimming to the right.
9. Wall jump up to the top and then take out the lone guard. Head through the door to your left to find a save room, then return and head through the door to the right.
10. Keep running to the right and you'll reach the helipad and the next boss fight.

BOSS - WSA3 Devastator

1. Right when the battle begins, look down and shoot the grate below you to drop into a secret area where you'll find a Grenade Pack to the left.
2. Continue to the right and climb the ladder to wind up on the right side of the boss.
3. Jump on to the rocks just to the right of where you emerged from the ladder and just rain grenades down on the robot until it explodes.

14. Continue heading right into the save room once again, but this time continue through to the next room to the right.
15. Kill the lone guard and then climb the ladder to reach the door to the next room.
16. Lots of enemies in here. Crouch behind the box and use your grenades to take out the two enemies off in the background.
17. After killing a couple of enemies, more soldiers along with another Devastator will enter the room. Just continue lobbing grenades their way. Don't be conservative; there's a box that will refill your grenades to the right.
18. Head into the next room to the right, kill the two soldiers, then jump down to the bottom level where one more soldier will be waiting.
19. Continue into the next room to the left and melee the enemy that guards the elevator up ahead. Head into the elevator and take it down to the bottom level.
20. Kill the enemy to the left once the elevator opens, but then head through the door on the right.

4. Continue heading to the left in these series of dimly lit rooms and take out any enemies along the way.
5. Once you reach the next section, use the box as cover as you take out the turret and the shieled soldier down below. Don't forget about the enemies in the background either.
6. When all is clear, proceed to the left into the next room and crawl under the machines to reach the other side. Take out the enemies if you want, but its not a necessity. Once you're done, you need to head through the door at the bottom left corner.
7. Continue running to the end of the room and then drop down to the bottom. To the right is a valve that you can turn to make the water rise.
8. NOTE: You may notice that there is a Grenade Pack above the valve. You can get it if you want, but you might want to wait until you get the scuba mask so you can breathe underwater.
9. Let the water rise to the top and then blow up the door with a grenade to enter the next room.
10. This room introduces the Grenade Pipes. By shooting grenades into these pipes, you will cause some kind of pipe to shoot out fire in the background. Try it out on this soldier with the minigun.
11. Continue to the next room to the left and then work your way up the various platforms to reach another large room with lots of enemies to the left.
12. Run forward and hide behind the boxes as you lob out grenades to wherever there are enemies. You can use the Grenade Pipe if you want, but its often more effective and safer if you just use the grenades as they were meant to be used.
13. Head to the left end of the room when its clear and jump over the boxes into a small gap to find a hidden Grenade Pack
14. Jump on top of the boxes now and blow the grating off the vent above. Climb into the vent and follow it to the next area.

20. Drop down behind the box and crouch. First aim at shooting the barrels in the background behind the big guy.
21. NOTE: You're right next to an explosive barrel so be sure to get out of the way if it starts to smoke.
22. Once the area is clear of enemies, head to the right side and use a grenade to break open the grating.
23. Crawl through to the next area and you'll be stopped by red forcefields. You'll note that the forcefields disappear whenever the enemy above walks by them. Match your steps with his to make it through the series of forcefields.

25. Match the next guard's steps again to make it through the second series of forcefields
26. Jump out of the crawlspace and then jump down through the hole in the ceiling of the room below to find the Omega Power Armor.

20. Use a grenade to blast open the grate on the right to find another Grenade Pack and then head over to the left side of the room so you can activate another Map Console.
21. Head to the left to reach a save room and trigger a cutscene.
22. Once the cutscene ends, continue to the next room to the left.
23. Take out the two guards in the immediate area and then start jumping up the platforms.
24. NOTE: If it wasn't already immediately obvious, the bright red lights underneath the platform ahead will kill you if you step into them for too long.
25. You'll find a group of three enemies up ahead that are perfectly grouped and spaced for a grenade to land at their feet. Once they're dead, continue down to the left but be careful not to fall into the red glowing light of death.
26. Once you reach the bottom left corner of the area and clear it of enemies, use a grenade to blast open the grate and drop down into the room below.
27. You'll land on a conveyor belt moving quickly to the left side. Crouch under the first two crawl spaces, but then be ready to jump onto a ladder on the right side or you'll be roasted.
28. Climb up the ladders, kill the soldiers and Foam Bombers, and then climb up the second set of ladders on the right side.
29. Save your game at the room to the left, and then head back and use a grenade to blast open the cover on the right side.
30. Crouch through the newly revealed crawlspace and follow the vent until you reach another breakable grate.
31. Shoot the grate off and head through into a small storage room where you can replenish some of your health.
32. Continue to the next room to the right and jump on to one of the boxes that is being transported.
33. Ride the box all the way to the right end of the room and then quickly jump off before it enters the death zone.
34. Enter the room to the right, save your game at the room next door, and then climb up the ladder in the middle.
35. Shoot the grate off the vent and then crawl inside. Follow the vent to the end where it will drop you right in the middle of an enemy ridden factory assembly room. There's no cover to get behind here so take out the enemies as quickly as you can.
36. Head to the left end of the room once it is clear and shoot out the grate above the door. Climb into the vent and then hang out the other side once you reach the end. Lob a grenade into the grenade pipe to light the two unexpecting guards aflame.
37. Work your way up and then head left. You'll see a bunch of enemies crowded together in the background so lob a grenade their way, then grab cover behind the boxes, and finish off the leftovers with your carbine.
38. Proceed to the save room to your left and then look up to find another breakable grate. Destroy it and then climb up into the vent.
39. Follow the vent to the end, break the next grate, and then jump up to the next area and start heading left.
40. Yet another breakable grate will await you at the end of the hall. Break it, and then jump up into the vent.
41. Follow the vent to the end, break the final grate, and then jump out to reach a room where a Bomber hangs around on the ceiling.
42. Head through the door to your left and you'll reach a room with another death pit down below. Jump up to the platform above and silently take out the guard. Take out the remaining guards from this vantage point and then double jump over the pit.
43. Continue into the next room to the left and drop all the way down to the bottom. Kill the two turrets to the right and then continue heading left.
44. Kill the enemies on the other side of the gap and then leap across to reach the door leading to the next room.
45. Fight your way through the enemies along the way to the big turret in the middle of this area. Press B to get in the turret and start firing rockets at everything.
46. TIP: If you need some health, ditch the rocket turret and go down the stairs into the red room below. There you'll find a health box that will replenish your health.
47. Once you kill enough enemies, the trap door down below will open. Head down but don't drop all the way. There is a grate to the left that blocks off a room with a Gold Bar.
48. Now head all the way down and fight your way over the gap to the door on the right.
49. Continue to the right until you reach a dark room with wooden boxes. Jump over the boxes to the left side of the room and break open the grate at the top right end. Inside the vent you'll find another Health Upgrade.
50. Now head back two rooms to the left and jump down to the bottom. There will be a conveyor belt with boxes that is moving from right to left. With X held down, jump over one of the boxes as soon as it emerges and quickly run to the right and jump over the next box.
51. Shoot out the grate at the top right while jumping over incoming boxes so you don't get pushed back out. Climb into the vent and follow it to the end where you'll find another breakable cover.

1. With the foam gun in your possession, you can now disable those smashers to the right. But before you do that, take a couple of steps forward and look at the ground with your flashlight. Shoot a foam bullet at the purple panel on the floor to break it open and find a Foam Pack inside.
2. Head to the right and use your flash light to highlight vents at the top part of the smashers. Shoot foam into each of them to disable all the smashers and put a halt to the production of the factory.
3. Once the smashers are disabled, head back to the save room to the right.
4. Use the foam gun to shoot the scanner on the door to the right to unlock it. Head through the door and then drop down to the bottom level.
5. Kill the soldier to the left and then walk a few steps to the right until you're in between the two warehouse shelves. Shoot the Bomber walking along the left shelf and then walljump between them to reach the top.
6. Shoot open the panel on the ceiling and hop up, but be ready to be met by a soldier to the left and right once you re-emerge.
7. Jump on the elevator and kill the shielded soldier in the middle so he won't interfere with what you're about to do next.
8. At the top of the elevator is a panel that must be broken with a grenade. You could either time a grenade so that it explodes right when the elevator reaches the top, or you can simply shoot a piece of foam on the panel, then stick a grenade into the foam.
9. Either way, hop through the panel once it breaks and then open the barred door to your left to find a Foam Pack.
10. Break open the panel to the right and then drop down. At the bottom of this room is a fast moving platform that will take you to a Gold Bar. It's risky though because if you mistime your jump you're as good as fried.
11. Head up the ladder and continue through to the next room on the right. Fight your way to the end of the room and climb up the ladder above the Foam Bomber.
12. Jump across the gap and save your game at the room to the left. Use your foam gun to open the barred door.
13. Clear this next room of enemies and then use your foam gun to create a makeshift bridge between the middle platform and the one on the right. It doesn't need to extend all the way, it just needs to be long enough so you can reach it with a double jump.
14. Once you're on the middle platform, climb the ladder to find a Foam Pack.
15. Double jump over to the left side and open the barred door with your foam gun.
16. Be careful not to touch the electrified water in this next room as you jump from platform to platform to reach the door on the left side.
17. Clear the enemies in this room and then jump over to the platform on the right side. You'll be met with two turrets at the end, so make sure to take them out quickly before they deal too much damage.
18. TIP: You can use foam to disable one of the turrets while you work on taking out the other.
19. Jump up to the platform above and enter the room to the right to save your game.
20. Head back to the previous room and double jump up to the platform above.
21. Work your way up to the top of this vertical passage by jumping across the moving platforms above.
22. Once you reach the top, enter through the barred door to the right to reach a dark room with a Bomber hiding in the darkness.
23. Kill the Bomber and then break open the box to reveal a small hole in the floor leading to the vents.
24. Head right once inside the vent and shoot your foam gun straight up once you reach the end. You'll destroy a secret panel and will be able to claim a Foam Pack in the room above.
25. Return to the vents and follow it to the left.
26. Drop down and kill the guard to the right. Fight your way all the way to the right side of the room and then head through the door.
27. Shoot the bomber on the wall to the left and then wall jump off it to reach the ledge above.
28. Save your game at the save room to the right, then climb up the ladder and head through the door to the left.
29. Kill the guard with his back towards you with a melee attack, then carefully jump across the various platforms down below as you make your way towards the top left corner of the room.
30. Head through the door and then jump down to fight a couple of more soldiers in the next room before you trigger a boss fight.

BOSS - WSA2 Tarantula IFV

1. Wait for the boss to destroy the platforms to the left or right and then jump down to the bottom floor.
2. Use the pillars as cover as you lob grenades at the boss's feet.
3. The pillars are destructable so move from pillar to pillar once you start taking damage.
4. If it seems like your grenades aren't hitting the boss, try adjust your aim with the right stick and make your grenades fly a little bit farther so they actually get underneath the belly of the robot.

1. Once you defeat the Tarantula, head into the next room to the right.
2. Destroy the two bombers and then activate the Map Console to add more data to your map.
3. Head into the next room and then jump to the platform above and enter the door to the right.
4. Clear the enemies in this room and then start working your way up to the top of the dark area above. Note that if you grab hold of a ledge on the left wall and pull yourself up, you'll find a Grenade Pack.
5. Once you reach the top, head through the door to the left.
6. Before you take out any enemies, jump on to the box above and lay down a grenade to have it smash the enemy down below. Now that everyone knows you're there, feel free to take them out however you want.
7. Continue through to the door on the left and crouchwalk into the crawlspace below the platform ahead.
8. Follow the crawlspace to the end and then wall jump up to the top to reach a save room.
9. Climb up the ladder to reach the great outdoors once again. Continue heading left past the lake and use grenades to fight your way through the enemy camp.
10. Another Devestator blocks your path on the way to your destination. Get cover behind the sandbags and just lob grenades its way to bring it down.
11. Continue heading left past the second lake and you'll eventually reach a large tower. Jump up to the protruding ledge and crawl through to the other side.
12. Drop down and kill the guard, then swim underwater to reach a panel that can be blown up with a grenade.
13. Swim through the tunnel and you'll trigger a cutscene that will make you aware of the existence of a water turbine that will suck you in and tear you up if you swim too close to it.
14. Swim forward but make sure you swim high so you get sucked against the wall and not under it. Take the ladder up and then take the next ladder down to be right above the turbine. Shine your flashlight at it and shoot foam at the part that glows purple.
15. The foam will disable the turbine and allow you to jump in the water once again.
16. Swim under the now deactivated turbine and then start climbing up the wall to the left.
17. Save your game at the save room to the left and then head back to the previous room and wall jump off the turbine to reach a ladder.
18. Climb up the ladder and then check out the right side of the room to find a Gold Bar.
19. Exit through the door on the left and then climb up to the roof of the room you were just in.
20. Man the turret and you'll notice that you're only able to fire foam. Use the foam to disable as many soldiers as you can before the helicopter arrives.
21. Once the helicopter arrives, make it your number one priority and keep shooting foam at it until its blades stop spinning and cause it to crash into its comrades.
22. Exit the turret and clean up the remaining enemies. Once it's clear, head over to the wreckage and you'll find a room with a small elevator. Take the elevator down and you'll be able to claim your new Omega Armor.

1. Exit through the door to the left and keep on running until a cutscene plays that shows a door being unlocked with enemies coming through it.
2. Continue to the left and take out all of the enemies that now occupy this room as you make your way down to the bottom.
3. Use grenade pipes and your newly acquired ground pound (jump and press LT to make things a little more exciting as you make your way to the bottom level.

5. When its clear, head to the right and jump down to the bottom level.
6. Clear the enemies in your way and run to the left to find a save room and a Map Console.
7. Once you're all saved up, head to the right side of the room to fight against four minigun wielding soldiers at once, all shooting at you from the background.
8. Pieces of cover will appear and disappear so move from cover to cover and just blast away at the soldiers. You don't even have to crouch; as long as you're behind cover, you won't take that much damage.
9. Once you get rid of all four, head through the doorway to the right to fight against a super armored enemy called XOS-1.
10. Technically this is a boss fight, but because its so easy I'm not even going to seperate it. Just lob grenades at his feet repeatedly to kill him. Nothing else to it.

12. Save your game at the room to the left and then continue through to the next area.
