Depth Self - A narrative game

A short narrative puzzle game about memory, guilt... and digging through files.

Laura can’t remember.
Not this part of her life. Not what happened. Not why it still hurts.

Using a device called the Depth-Self, you’ll explore the forgotten corners of her mind—through images, voices, and strange documents scattered across a mysterious interface.
Click. Drag. Dig.
The truth is somewhere in there.

It’s a game that messes a bit with your head—and a bit with your desktop.

🧠 Narrative-focused

🖱️ Puzzle through files and fragments

⏳ Short, emotional, and personal

🕹️ How to Play

Depth Self plays with your files—literally.

When the game starts, it creates a folder filled with strange files. Your goal is to explore and interact with them to unlock pieces of Laura’s memory.

• Load .jpp files in-game and reassemble them like puzzles.

• Complete them to reveal .jpng images containing hidden clues.

• Watch for the “writing” indicator—this means new data is being saved to the folder. Something just changed.

• Once you’ve gathered enough clues, you’ll be able to run the DepthSelf.brain program and dive deeper

⚠️ Content Warning

Depth Self deals with themes of emotional trauma and many more. Some moments may be emotionally intense or unsettling.

Take your time. Step away if needed.
