A Step From Insanity

A Step From Insanity is a 2D platformer-shooter about a man with several psychological illnesses who searches for a way to end his insanity. Guided by an unfamiliar friend, he seeks a mysterious cure said to heal any illness and meets friends and foes along the way. The story raises questions about Billy, his connection to the cure and why he is so desperate to find it.

Sanity and combat

You choose how to maintain your sanity: consume a mysterious alcoholic substance or take the lives of others to enrich your own. You can fight your demons or lose everything. Platforming mechanics are paired with 2D click-and-shoot combat and a manageable inventory. Expand your arsenal, and make life-dependent decisions about what to take and what to leave behind.
