Equinoxe
A downloadable game for Windows
For a long time now, you have secluded yourself within the island of Equinoxe. Your duty as a caretaker is to maintain a careful balance of your world by using water; its main nourishing source of energy.
Thus far it allowed you to establish a good life of peace and tranquillity.
Up to the point where an unfortunate event from the past came back... haunting you and threatening to break the sweet equilibrium you worked hard to achieve.
Your main purpose in this adventure is to restore harmony and balance between two worlds reflecting each other. Journey through the path of unconditional acceptance of oneself while facing the opposing duality and complementarity to reach inner peace.
Water is the main energy source of the world of Equinoxe. Your mission as its guardian is to restore that source of energy and so, its balance. An arduous road awaits: Solve puzzles that will stand in your way and recover the water paths.
You will have to rely on your own reflexion and sense of perspective in order to progress in the world of Equinoxe. In cooperation with your another self, move around your environment with telekinesis and use your perspective to rebuild your way to the next challenge.
Discover a rich and relaxing environment. Let yourself be carried away by a poetic universe and enjoy those two mirrored worlds and their uniqueness.
Key Features :
- Two mirrored worlds: Discover a unique gameplay, where you will be able to play between two worlds displaying simultaneously. Explore the worlds of the sun & the moon and interact between them to solve puzzles.
- Solve enigmas that will challenge your logic senses
- Combine visual patterns using perspective to fuse or repair ruins and access to new areas
- Restore water in Equinoxe and retrieve the lost balance

Beautiful visuals and music, very relaxing, I'm enjoying it. Just one small glitch so far: it took me a while (well 10 mins) to work out that I had to change the keyboard layout from the default (AZERTY) to QWERTY, or the direction controls don't work. Then when I did, the setting is not saved, I have to change the keyboard every time I play.
Hello ianjt !
Thank you for the feedback, glad you liked the world of Equinoxe.
Sorry you had troubles with the keyboard layout, we'll work on an more persistant settings system.
Have a nice day !
Hi, I don't know if it's only for me but seems like zip file is broken when trying to extract.
Hey there !
This problem is not common, have you managed to play the game since?
What software do you use for decompression ? Are you on Windows ?
Ok I don't know what happened but now it's extracting normally. Seems like my PC acted weirdly yesterday ;)
Enjoy the game !
Hey, finally I got some time to play it and overall I must say that this is looking great! I love the aesthetics and cinematics of the game. One thing that I can point out if you want some feedback is movement that is not super fluid, by that I mean character is often stucked or slowed when moving close to some stones etc.
Also I stucked at one puzzle inside the cave and I don't know if this is end of demo or I'm doing something wrong, but I can't move stone with water pipe to complete puzzle.
Anyway great work and good luck!
Thanks buddy ! We take note of your feedback.
If you want to watch the whole gameplay and see the demo :
