A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Uploading your best friend to save her, only for that safe haven to fall apart.
When a devoted programmer uploads her terminally ill best friend into a digital world to preserve her life, their bond is tested as the friend’s virtual body begins to mysteriously deteriorate. Trapped between morality and desperation, both women struggle with the blurred lines of friendship and control as the simulated world unravels into something more.
How to Play:
- Press 'SPACE' to move dialogue
- Use MOUSE to interact
You play as Mya, a devoted programmer overseeing the digital simulation that houses the consciousness of your best friend, Crystal. Some of the core game loops include navigating dialogue, watch your best friend's condition, and complete the interactive minigames to take care of her. Every interaction pushes the storyline on altering the system subtly.
Between the narrative sections of gameplay, you can engage with four different minigames that help keep her sane and taken care of. The world itself shifts as time goes on, from audio to visuals, even UI showing that some sort of unstableness is happening within the program. The distinct experience of this game is the combination of psychological horror/tension, system management and futuristicness.
Includes:
- Two Different Endings!
- 4 Minigames!
- The weight of someone's life in YOUR hands!
[WARNING: May contain gore and flashing lights]
