“Every story has a beginning and an end, but how would you know about it, if the story never started?”
Ripple is a firstperson adventure game with strong narrative. You are in the role of an artist, who makes paintings. As most artists, he lives a somewhat lonely life, dealing with depression, addictions, and low self-esteem.
The game starts in your home, where you can interact and look at your surroundings, by gaining more information about who you are, and what you deal with. The goal is to change the mindset of the artist.
Upon leaving your room, you are not yet ready to face the real world, and you dwell down in a pseudo-reality, somewhere in your mind.
The game is played by an Xbox-Controller.
