Duality

"Duality" is a platformer game with a twist. The only way to complete the levels is to die. The main character believes that the only way to escape from a world similar to the Matrix is to self-destruct. The narrator's voice accompanies the character on his journey but is not entirely trustworthy.

The narrator's voice provides guidance to the player and progresses the story, sometimes seeming to provide accurate information, but at other times can be deceptive or hide the truth.

The game presents a mechanic where death is necessary to progress, which sets it apart from traditional platform games. Each level contains a series of puzzles and platforms that require the player to die in order to advance. When you die, the main character respawns at the next checkpoint.

This loop requires the player to strategically use death as a means to progress and explore more challenging levels. For example, you may need to find and solve puzzles within objects like thorny obstacles to move your character away from their current environment and respawn at a different point.

"Duality" offers a unique gameplay experience by presenting this different mechanic. Players must strategically use the death of their character to advance.
