7 itemsAbout the Game
Bliss is a quiet and subtle puzzle platforming adventure.
Always searching for what he didn't have; the man climbed a mountain his entire life just to find himself alone at the top with a view of all the mistakes he made along the way.
In Bliss you are a shadow trapped in a strange world constructed from someone's memories. The world is infected with dark creatures that you have to remove before you can proceed. To your disposal you have a boomerang and a stopwatch that can freeze time.
Each level represents a period of a certain person's life as well as a stage in the Kübler Ross model (the five stages of grief).
* Challenging gameplay & little hand holding
* 5 unique levels
* 4 unique bosses
* Challenge mode for each boss
* Steam achievements
* Heavy but subtle story told without words
The game is played with a mouse and keyboard.
