Your Box is a 2D platformer about the 5 Stages of Grief. Navigate the world inside your head and achieve closure from a personal loss.

Stuck? Here's a walkthrough (contains spoilers, obviously)!

Each of the 5 Stages of Grief is represented by a level, accompanied by storytelling narration. The entire game represents a journey of resilience and a quest towards acceptance and peace.

Many of us have suffered losses during this pandemic, whether that be death of a loved one or lost opportunities. It is more important than ever to practice resilience in these difficult times.

Made for Games for Change 2021 Student Competition, with the theme "Resilience Through Games." Music & SFX licensed from Epidemic Sound, all other assets self-made.
