What are the factors controlling your life? Work? Stress? Killer robots chasing you while you're performing delicate dental surgery? Split Brain is a game designed to erode your cognitive faculties with a typhoon of poor choices and missed opportunities.
In Split Brain the player must navigate a challenging platformer while simultaneously make considered decisions on everyday situations in a text adventure. Wise decisions are rewarded while bad ones are punished. A series of poor choices in the text adventure could result in taking damage, gaining negative effects, and increase the difficulty of the platformer, leading to yet more regrettable life choices and, inevitably, death.
