Tape 101 Liminal Descent Demo Tape 101: Liminal Descent explores psychological horror through liminal environments - spaces suspended between memory and reality, where architecture becomes an emotional landscape shaped by loss, perception, and fragmented identity.

What’s in the New Demo

• Reworked Chapters 1 & 2 - improved gameplay flow, refined puzzles, and overall polish across the experience

• RC Car Exploration - scout unreachable areas, trigger mechanisms, and uncover hidden paths

• Liminal Architecture - minimal, looping environments that distort scale and perception

• Puzzle-First Exploration - spatial and timing-based challenges revealed through observation rather than combat

• Journey Through the Stages of Grief - each chapter reflects a phase of the Kübler-Ross model

• Narrative Descent - every discovery draws you deeper into the space between memory and reality
