SDIES
Explore a surreal world full of contrasts: black and white, friends and enemies, serenity and agitation. When the time comes, what we resist will persist, what we accept will transform, and through self transformation, we will discover the spectrum in between.

6 itemsAbout the Game
SDIES is an interactive animation that explores the duality of black-and-white thinking and contrasting emotional extremes. This visual metaphor, and the evolving gameplay which embodies themes of self-transformation and finding balance, offers a short yet impactful journey in a visually, aurally, and emotionally polarized world.
This experience is designed to empower players to overcome mental health issues and trauma which often push people to emotional extremes. How much of our experience delving into frighteningly dark and destructively joyful places is guided by outside forces? What happens if, instead of submitting to a hostile environment which consumes and changes us, we enact the change we want to see within ourselves?
- Tactile point & click gameplay
- Monochromatic animation art style
- Adaptive jazz music
