A downloadable game for Windows

You’ve lived for as long as you can remember. Eternity the last human alive remains trapped in endless existence. In the middle of a post-apocalyptic world, you stumble upon a working laptop that boots up a strange, old game. 

Inside, you meet Franz, a brilliant developer who transferred his consciousness into this digital world long ago. Tormented by centuries of unyielding time, Franz desperately pleads, “Please, let me die!” Now, you are drawn into a surreal journey between two intertwined existences, the immortal and the digital soul each step of which brings you closer to an end.

GAMEPLAY FEATURE

  • Reverse Progression: Navigate up to 7 uniquely crafted levels in reverse order, along the way you learn more about Franz's past
  • Too Many Checkpoints: Progression comes at the cost of countless deaths.  Each fatal fall isn't a setback, it's a mandatory step toward the next level

CONTROLS

  • WASD          = Move
  • J / SPACE   = Jump
  • SPACE         = Proceed with dialogue
  • ENTER        = Pause / Confirm
