WARNING: Controller is required to play. The game has no audio implementation to date

🌌 The Game 

“Specularity” is a 2D top-down shooter game where the player controls 2 characters that move, act and shoot in specular opposite ways at all times, making for a convoluted and confusing yet elegant experience.

The concept was created for the Game Design 3 Course at Howest DAE and the prompt was "One enemy only" and "Keep it alive".

🌌 Story 

“Souls wander across this dimension, hoping to find a way out, seeking a means to finally exist in the real world.

By wandering around looking for a way out of this limbo, another lost soul found itself chained to your image.

A reciprocal link influences your twin fates, and it’s up to you to save both to achieve existence.”

🎮 Controls

The game is playable only with Controller.

• R1 / Right Bumper : shoot
• Left Stick: move 
• Right Stick: Aim
