About the Game

Specular Jiangshi is an action-adventure game set in a mirrored labyrinth. Players explore an eerie maze, battling terrifying Jiangshi (Chinese hopping undead) that lurk within, while searching for the exit.

Every aspect of this game—from programming and graphics to character design and sound—is created entirely through code. The dash effect incorporates visual expressions from the creator's work exhibited at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan.

The randomly generated triangular grid maze features mirror reflections that display characters on both floors and walls. Experience a unique visual journey where reality and reflected images blend together.
