## About This Game
Where do you run when the monsters are chasing you from inside your mind?
Explore a haunting world, both real and metaphorical, and find the keys needed
to battle inner and outer monsters. Get caught up in an intensely emotional
story unfolding in a malignant, elaborate setting. Experience diverse gameplay
featuring twisted puzzles, threatening creatures, lovecraftian environments,
and metaphorical minigames.
Decarnation takes inspiration from the best 2D adventure-horror and survival-
horror games from the past eras, as well as cult movies from Satoshi Kon
(Perfect Blue) and David Lynch (Mulholland Drive).
Paris, 1990. Gloria is at the end of her rope. A struggling cabaret dancer
dealing with the fraying of her relationships, career, and self-esteem, she
takes on a new artistic endeavor sponsored by a mysterious benefactor. Would
the generous proposal be Gloria’s lucky break, or something worse?
A survival story with layered psychological stakes, Decarnation explores the
contrast between battling limitations in the physical realm, and the
subconscious landscapes one can’t escape.
Decarnation is an emotional, startling story-driven experience that will keep
you on your toes until the very end.
Decarnation mixes traditional survival horror elements (cryptic puzzle to
solve, inhospitable environments to explore, lethal predators to avoid,
terrifying boss to defeat, etc.) with a wide variety of symbolic minigames
(puzzles, reflexes, rhythm, etc.) accounting for real life situations
(performing a cabaret show on stage) or metaphorical ones.
Once uncovered, key elements of Gloria’s life aid her in defeating monsters in
her dreams in unique battles that marry the grotesque and the sublime to
represent her struggle for survival. Overcoming challenges in her dreams
strengthens Gloria against real life difficulties, and her real life issues
create new challenges in her dreams.
