This is a 2D metroidvania platformer about connection, belonging, and the power of companionship.

The world begins in complete desaturation a black-and-white environment where the player character exists alone. As the journey unfolds, the player explores a handcrafted interconnected map, backtracking through familiar spaces and unlocking new paths in classic metroidvania fashion.

Scattered throughout the world are living embodiments of color. Each one represents a companion waiting to be found. When recruited, these colorful characters join the player, forming a flowing, snake-like chain that follows their movement through the environment.

With every new companion, the world slowly regains its color. A global saturation system visually reflects the player’s progress, transforming the game from grayscale to full color as connections are formed. Isolation fades. The world comes alive.

The final goal is not power or domination, but unity. When the full spectrum is restored, the journey ends with a world no longer defined by loneliness, but by togetherness.
