===Disappearance.===
This game features a town on a floating island with the primary colors mainly being on the dark side of the color spectrum. Despite this, the game features a few things that do stand out from the gloomy environment.
The player first spawns right next to a house's front door. Above the house, the player can notice a floating purple cube See image 1 in the Gallery. that doesn't seem to fit in with the darkness and fog of the town. Going behind that very same house lies text and a tallied number written in chalk, where it reads "33 DAYS". See image 2 in the Gallery. On the ground, there seems to be a fallen letter, which would actually make it 34 days. 
If the player checks out the few neighboring homes, they will notice that the house closest to spawn is the only one that has glowing lights. See image 1 in the Gallery. Straight ahead from spawn, the player can find more houses that are nearly identical to one another, with all but two having no lights on. 
Going behind a few of the houses, the player can see a large tree with another levitating purple cube and four long surrounding rectangles which also move at the same speed as the cube. Nearby, the player can find a dock, with another levitating purple cube straight ahead, albeit a bit smaller. See image 4 in the Gallery. If the player jumps off the dock, they will find a levitating and spinning white object before going back to spawn.
