SDIES
A downloadable interactive animation for Windows and macOS
SDIES is an interactive animation that explores the duality of black and white thinking and contrasting emotional extremes. This visual metaphor, and more importantly the evolving interactive gameplay that embodies the themes of self-transformation and finding balance, offers an unprecedented journey in a visually, aurally, and emotionally polarized world.
