Ace is a young teen who starts to feel anxious about kicking off their day at school. As they head towards the school entrance, their anxiousness begins to grow and intensify until they experience an intense panic attack. Feeling scared and overwhelmed, Ace gets closed off into a warped mind world where they now need to find a way out.

With the help of their companion Zen, Ace learns the proper timings and physical stance for the Belly Breathing technique, which they can now utilize to expel their anxiousness and colour the way forward.

In this mind world, Ace must navigate a disjointed version of their school by performing a series of simple platforming challenges, breathing the anxiousness away, and solving an array of puzzles.

•

Upon entering each new section of the school, mental blockers and a lack of colour fill the surrounding area, making it difficult for Ace to achieve their goal of escaping.

•

By finding a calm space to center themselves, Ace can perform Life Breathing to bring colour back bit by bit and remove their mental blockers.

•

Use the power of controlled breath when interacting with breathing terminals to inflate and deflate large balloons, change the directional air flow of fans, and rotate platforms to move forward.

•

To progress to the next section, find and place large books into their proper shelves to open doors and move on to the next page of the Ace’s journey.
