SYNOPSIS
Lucidity is a playable personality inventory where you move through the lifespan of a character who is searching for their sense of self and a mythical "You" who may or may not exist. The events take place in a dream state, sometimes working outside the bounds of traditional logic and reason. To progress, collect the shattered Shards of Personality and confront the people who work to define you, defining yourself in the process. Meant to be a casual play, the game has no traditional combat, no way to 'lose,' and can provide hints should the player ever find themselves stuck. The unique boss battles utilize dialogue choices to defeat your enemies and interpret the character's personality type. Every choice you make matters in determining who you are!
SCREENSHOTS
DISCLAIMER
This probably goes without saying, but...
Although this games includes (or will include) features of actual psychological inventories (MBTI, BDI, GAD7), this is not a mental health tool and is not intended to treat, diagnose or otherwise speak to any aspect of mental health. It's only a game, and the results you get pertain only to the game's character.

OTHER STUFF
This is my first RPG Maker game, so it's largely pretty basic. I know RTP assets aren't usually ideal, but I used primarily those for a few reasons:
- The focus is more on story and development than art.
- The somewhat generic elements enforce an idea of "I could be anyone" or "this could be any game," appropriate to the ambiguous protagonist.
- They're easy. Yeah, I confess; that contributed.
