Diminishment is a surreal point-and-click adventure where excessive drinking leads to a bizarre transformation. As you shrink dramatically, your friends’ loyalty shifts, unraveling a twisted dynamic of power, control, and unforeseen consequences.
A Twist of Surreal Proportions
1. Body Horror with a Click: Witness your protagonist’s drastic physical collapse in real-time—shrink to inches tall, re-sizing the world into a labyrinth of household hazards and towering threats.
2. Familiar Faces, Unfamiliar Intent: Your two friends, once companions, now wield new perspectives over you—literally. Their dialogue shifts from concern to curiosity, then experimentation, questioning how far trust—and ethics—can stretch.
3. Environmental Storytelling: Navigate cramped spaces like under couches or inside purses, where hidden clues about the town’s secret “shrinking syndicate” lurk among mundane objects like forgotten receipts and cosmetics.
Moral Dilemmas in Miniature
1. The Cost of Compliance: Cooperate to avoid harm? Or rebel and risk becoming a lab experiment? Every choice impacts your survival—and whether you retain your humanity.
2. Dynamic Relationships: Characters’ affection or antagonism toward you hinges on decisions made during “intimate” moments, like being dressed as a toy or forced to “aid” their clandestine schemes.
3. Consequence Systems: A single misplaced trust could trigger a domino effect—your shrinking may accelerate, or allies might vanish entirely, leaving you at the mercy of new, stranger forces.
Aesthetic and Atmosphere
1. Stylish, Surreal Art: Hyper-detailed environments mimic reality but warped through a child’s-eye viewpoint—furniture looms like cityscapes, shadows become monsters, and lighting exaggerates textures.
2. Whispered Tension: The soundtrack pulses with distorted whispers and thudding bass as your diminished body struggles against its frailty, contrasted with friends’ laughter echoing ominously.
3. Themes of Power and Abandonment: The game’s haunting finale forces players to confront themes of vulnerability: Who truly holds power, and at what cost?
Play Beyond the First Session
1. Multiple Paths, Multiple Endings: Will you manipulate your way back to normalcy? Or succumb, embracing a new existence as a tiny, enslaved “helper” in their schemes?
2. Unlockable Diaries: Post-play, hidden journals from your friends reveal their motives—some compassionate, others sinister—recontextualizing every scene.
3. Community-Driven Lore: Share your bizarre encounters online; certain endings unlock cryptic messages hinting at a sequel’s “shrinking underground” of other victims.
“Size matters—but so do choices.”
