Gameplay

Playtesters have taken between 6 and 10 hours to finish the game, and a bit more to explore everything. Most progress is gated only by knowledge, which is gained by exploring and experimenting. Currently the game is Desktop/PC only, with written elements in English. There is a Color Vision Deficiency overlay which shows the color of the object you're looking at, but I would welcome feedback on this as it has not been play-tested. Contact me for a free key if you would like to test.

This is an immersive, non-linear, story-rich (for its length!), risk-taking and moderately challenging game, made by a solo developer (hi there). The puzzles ramp up in difficulty, but the game helps to guide you as well. So if you're exploring everywhere, you will know what to do. Maybe just not how to do it! I was inspired by games like Anti-chamber, Outer Wilds, Myst/Riven, and the explorational elements of Tunic. I hope to bring more games like these into the world, since by their nature they are focused on giving you a wonderful and surprising first-playthrough.

Future updates should only be adding language support, hardware support, bug fixes, so what you're getting here is the full game. The wonderful original score will also be for sale separately, or as part of a bundle, upon release.
