ESCAPIST MIND

ESCAPIST MIND is a short interactive educational experience, focusing on escapism. It's an metaphorical and abstract showcase of it's theme. 

Utilizing a 16-bit artstyle top-down, with no initial explanation of what is going on or what the player must do, the objective is to make the player question things, and afterwards, explain everything. Focusing purely on the art, sound effects, and absence of things, it creates a somber but explorational game.

FACE YOURSELF is the second part of this project, focusing on the user's reflection of his own ways of experiencing escapism, compelling them to look inwards.

Hopefully, after this experience, the user has gained an understanding of the theme, and maybe even identified their own ways of escaping.
