About the Game

Gameplay
Playtime: 15-30 minutes
Shards of the Mirrors is a story-driven puzzle game where the protagonist, trapped in a mirror world by chance, must find the scattered mirror shards around the house to escape. Explore and discover various endings as you solve the puzzles.

Game Story
Shards of the Mirrors begins after the protagonist returns home from their day. Quickly falling asleep, they are awakened by a loud noise. In the storage room, they discover a strange compass, and upon inspecting it, they feel someone behind them. Startled, they drop the compass and are suddenly pulled into the mirror world. What will the protagonist encounter in this mysterious place?

Developer's Note
Shards of the Mirrors was inspired by the concept of non-determinism, learned during a CSE355 class. While the game may not be highly polished, it's my first game, and I plan to fix bugs with frequent updates.

Distribution:
If you stream or share a video, I would appreciate it if you include the game's title or a Steam link in the description. It would be a great help to a solo developer. We are not responsible for any damages caused by unauthorized distribution of game videos.
