About Hefty Shaman

Hefty Shaman is a clever little puzzle-platformer with a twist—you play as a heavyset shaman who uses his weight to create shockwaves when he lands from a jump. Instead of flashy powers or magic spells, your biggest tool is the ground itself.

You control him with arrow keys or WASD and hit space to jump. Land hard enough and you send out a shockwave that can dislodge enemies, break blocks, fling traps, and even move objects. Higher jumps mean stronger waves—you’ll need that to clear your path and protect your tribe.

The goal isn’t to sprint through each level—it’s to think. You gather your fellow tribespeople, guide them safely, and deliver the sacred rain‑stone to the altar to bring rain back to your land. Each stage stacks new puzzles: tricky gaps, spikes, boars, sometimes shifting terrain. Timing your jumps and shockwaves just right is the name of the game.

What makes it stand out

  • Using shockwaves as your main tool feels fresh and satisfying.
  • Levels invite a steady pace, not speed runs.
  • The pixel-art visuals and clever layout make it perfect for players who like thinking through movement and timing.
  • No power-ups, just your own skill and a big bounce that changes everything.

If you enjoy platform games where brains matter more than button-mashing, Hefty Shaman offers a neat balance of challenge, strategy, and a bit of weighty fun.
