Your name is Tadashi and you're a Japanese computer science student. You wake up in a strange room you haven't seen before and no one you know is there. You acquire a color phasing ability and decide to activate it!

You decide to find an escape from this lonely place...

Can you overcome all the challenges before Tadashi goes insane?
