Features

• 322 maps (to date) with half of them being parallax.
  
• A heavily story-driven RPG
  
• 4 to 5 hours of gameplay (to date).
  
• Puzzle-based gameplay. Mirrors are a very essential element to most of the puzzles.
  
• A great many ways to die, spread throughout the game. Not necessarily related to multiple endings.
  
• Over 7 (to date) possible endings depending on variable actions, affection or hostility towards other characters.
  
• Many hidden extras that allow even more endings, secrets and easter eggs (yet to be implemented).
  
• Customized Event Menu.
  

Current Point

• About 65% of the game done.
  

Cons

• First project (It is really apparent especially in the first maps of the game).
  
• Not completely RTP free. Many of the usual tilesets and sprites you have seen over and over will be present.
  
• Long introduction.
  
• Slow story progression in the first 1.5 hours of the game.
  
• English is not my native language. The text may have some grammatical errors or some phrases that are technically correct but sound awkward to native English speakers.
  
• No battle system (while there is a QTE system for some action scenes, the classic battle system is not featured). If you are an action fan, this isn't your thing. I have some action encounters but they are rare. I try to make them as memorable as possible, though.
  
• May or may not require some sound volume tweaking.

Jack is an adult already. In his adulthood he is obliged to accept some harsh truths about the world and his place in it.
However, while in his mind he is strict pragmatist, his heart desires more thrills than his bleak world can offer. He feels
that he is unique, even if he knows that nothing in his ordinary life proves it. He is in a constant inner struggle with his
need to excel, his lack of determination to do so, and his self-loathing for seeing his young life being wasted away on
frivolities.
 
One day, in his desperate attempt to become something more than himself he voluntarily places himself in an unorthodox,
perilous situation. While he escapes seemingly unscathed, when he beckons at his reflection in the mirror to become the
person he used to be, he discovers that he can enter a mirrored version of his own world, with almost no barriers and no
residents. While he enjoys his new secret in any way possible, he soon discovers that the parallel world starts to change
a little by little.
 
When Jack is eventually trapped in a completely alien location he just drifts without any sense of direction and purpose.
He says to himself "I need to find an exit" and "I need to survive". But is that what he really wants?
He will meet cryptic figures and will spend some time with some of them. A number of them will make him question some
of his beliefs. Trying to protect his ego he has made what is supposes that is a cold, pragmatical, pessimistic profile for
himself. But he has forgotten some important aspects of him that start to resurface.
 
We can all see what a mirror can show us. But behind the glass, the layer of silver may hide some secrets.
Is anyone really capable of comprehending what the silver shows?

Are you a Dumb-Dumb and cannot deal with extremely obscure & frustrating puzzles? Here's a walkthrough. Actually, it's more like a list of direct clues, as to how to progress and not an actual walkthrough.
I'd suggest that you use it only to get unstuck and not to guide you all the way,
 
Notes:

• WARNING! Some sequences contain colorful flashing images.
  
• Demo duration: 45' to 1 hour.
  
• Insta-death galore! Save often!
  
• When you think that something was meant to catch your eye, or it seems out of place, examine it.
  
• The blue number on the top left corner is purely for my convenience as a developer. In the final product it won't be there.
  
• The game will close on it's own at some point. That's perfectly normal! Open it again.
  
• The file size might be kinda big. If so, please wait for a playthrough (of a different area) that I will upload shortly.
  
• May be buggy, some great individuals help me bring these bugs to the surface. If you find one, please report it.
  
• Please consider some of of the awful-looking shrunk google images as placeholders. They will be replaced.
