# Glitch Escape

Summer DB entity ID: ff202cee\-5256\-41bc\-af06\-d02277571430

Steam App ID: 1320710

This game was originally inspired by sleep paralysis and the metaphysical theories surrounding astral projection being one of the gateways to high dimensions\. The game tells a story about characters who struggle with their reality and falls victim to an antagonist who wants to keep them forever in the "astral realm"\. The protagonist must face their fear, the antagonist: a version of themself that does not want to wake up, in order to save the others \(who are also versions of them from other world lines\)\.    The game was made by 16 UCSC students from the games department\.
