Games worth discovering

Biphase is a 2D platform jumping game with an emphasis on exploration and puzzles.

In the game, the player takes on the role of a bipolar character who is attempting to discover and breakthrough their own identity in an abstract red and black landscape.

The game's protagonist is a young girl who must overcome changes in her environment in order to reach the exit that will bring her to the following track. This is a lovely metaphorical approach to bipolar disorder since it depicts the difficulties of moving in a constantly changing environment, which is something that people with bipolar disorder confront in their daily life owing to mood swings caused by the disease. Nonetheless, the game sends a positive message; while the girl may find it more difficult than the others to "journey" in his own life, reconciling with the disease's facts enables her to tackle any problem with courage.

Seed Lab and Biphase Team's invention is simple but appealing in appearance. The creators have managed to generate a sensation of perpetual change and underline the need for stability that results from it by using geometric shapes and color contrasts based on red and black, which represent times of mania and sadness, respectively.

Biphase chronicles a girl with bipolar disorder's path to acceptance of her condition and adjustment to her data in a straightforward and clear manner. The well-designed puzzles in the game pique interest by demanding strategic thinking to complete, and the soothing piano sound that complements Biphase's abrupt color shifts creates a lovely harmony.

Definitely not a simple game, but once you understand how the bipolarity effect works, I'm confident you won't be able to put your smartphone down.
