About Contrast
Contrast is a puzzle-platform game set in a surreal 1920s world inspired by vaudeville and film noir, accompanied by jazz. You play Dawn, the imaginary friend of a young girl named Didi, and help move Didi's story forward by solving puzzles that use light and shadow.
Shift between worlds
You can move between a 3D physical world and its parallel 2D shadow world at any lit wall surface. In the 3D world, you manipulate light sources and objects to distort, enlarge or stretch shadows, creating landscapes you can use to solve puzzles.
A vaudeville world
The story explores adult themes through a child's eyes in a world of cabaret singers, circus performers and magic. Its atmosphere draws on showmanship, intrigue and deception.
