About this game

Rewoven Self is a dual-perspective narrative puzzle game that combines first-person interaction with 2.5D platform exploration.

You move between two connected spaces — reality and fantasy.

Actions in the real world, such as folding, cutting, and stitching, influence the journey of the paper figure in the fantasy world, gradually guiding the protagonist toward emotional repair and self-growth.

The story unfolds across three chapters, following the arc of Escape – Collapse – Reweaving:

  • Chapter I – “Escape into Fantasy”
    You build a personal fantasy world through folding — hiding emotions inside a paper-shaped space and using imagination to resist the loneliness of the real room.

  • Chapter II – “Reality Cages Cage”
    The fantasy starts to fall apart.

    Caught between ideals and reality, the protagonist reaches the edge of emotional breakdown.

  • Chapter III – “Fantasy & Reality Reweaving”
    You stitch the two worlds back together.

    While repairing emotions, you also face choices and actions in reality —

    no longer escaping, but moving forward with fantasy as part of yourself.

The game focuses on non-combat puzzles, combining side-scrolling platforming with first-person real-world interactions to portray an emotional journey from escape → struggle → reweaving.

Developer’s Note

I want players to feel the weight of emotion through interaction, not just watch it.

Rewoven Self is a journey from fantasy to reality, from avoidance to integration.

Using folding to build a fragile refuge,

cutting to break through what holds you back,

and stitching to reconnect everything into a whole.

For me, this game is more than a project —

it is a process of understanding, repairing, and starting again.

When you walk out of that final door,

I hope you carry your own sense of wholeness

and reweave the world in your own way.
