Shadows and Dust
Shadows and Dust is a ghost story about regret.
A short narrative experience that combines sections of first person exploration with text based interactive dialogue scenes. Accompanied by a meticulously crafted soundtrack powered by Wwise.
A dim view.
A dark room.
Someone else is here.
These are my real nightmares.
​
Shadows and Dust deals with actual horror. Anxiety and depression. Suicide. Choices that can't be taken back.
