Overview

About this game

Looming "yourself"

In the light, another you begins to chase.

Only the darkness can hide you.

The Weight of Being Pursued

Struggling with life as a novelist,

you find yourself being chased by your own self in a dream.

A World of Light and Shadow

Shadows protect you.
But nothing will change unless you step into the light.

A world rendered in pure two tones—
clear yet ambiguous, unfamiliar yet nostalgic.

Simple controls. Retro pixel art rendered in pure two tones.
And the only enemy in the game—“The Doppel”—relentlessly traces your every move.
