A famous singer and scientist named Johnny Yoraks is abducted by an unknown being after finishing his narration to young Jeremy Hrajen at the Bo Jhun Monastery in Tibet. He wakes up in a strange world on an impossible structure hurtling through a red sun constellation. Shrouded in darkness and due to his limited visibility/disability he uses his metaphysical camera as a source of light although the camera brings something unwanted to life if it is used.
Take a trip through a psychedelic experience like none other within which you discover the darker shades of Johnny's childhood, his battle against bullying, abuse and other resistances including shaping an unknown dimension of existence that people refer to as gender. He goes onto winning a Nobel Prize and releasing several hits on the Billboard top 100 but then having to also deal with the tragic loss of his family and eventually discovering the secret of our universe in his quest to unify physics through an advanced cosmological equation. Who knew the pursuit of art and other dimensions of life like ones identity would help uncover the secrets of the universe but it all comes with a price. It must be paid to the...

FAQs
Ans 1:Limbo, The Stanley Parable, Games from The Chinese Room, Point and Click games from Amanita Design. Basically walking simulators but also horror games like Alien, Slender and Amnesia.
Ans 2:The size of the game was carefully picked just like the other Doku games to be large enough such that it could comprise the size of an indie game like Firewatch or Slender the eight pages, basically last for a couple of hours or short enough to provide some good entertainment for a shorter sitting or to play with friends in the room. Some hard core gamers could play it all out in an evening along with some friends or take longer and go back to it, to be a completionist.
Ans 3:This idea was meant to be a sequel to DUCTZ and another game in the Kanma series. We were trying to work on a challenge of limiting light and locomotion using game physics and sound just like DUCTZ but in a different way. This game will be updated and released as WALLZ sometime soon after which the third entry is planned which is CROPZ. That one will be a lot of fun too and we welcome people to join the series and become a fan, if this type of game is something you like or you would like to support us as developers. You’re welcome to add any info that would make you a fan if that idea was implemented in some way in future games or an update for any current games.
Anus 4:The approach to these style of games is minimalism and hence although many things are considered, they are left out for various reasons and also since we’ve come a long way in gaming history and some ideas can be different than they were before. Menus are one such things wherein there doesn’t need to be a home menu screen as any options can be accessed from within the game. Many games like to get you right into the action. This game does have a way to let the player respawn as they may get ahead in the game but it does encourage the player to finish the game in one sitting as the experience is designed to be that way. For example, the increasing tension as you progress is part of the fun and no different than a souls game where you die a lot. This game does present more situations where one may lose and as such, compared to DUCTZ, there are spawn points.
Ans 5:It’s just slang for bad or random. In this game it is expanded into a noun form of something that is extra-dimensionally bad or random or randomly bad. It is also an adjective to describe this indescribable creature that travels between dimensions like a demon or a god of sorts that has control over space time in unknown ways. It is cosmological horror at its code in this sense. One could also accept the possibility of the Skibidi man being a member of a type 5 civilization who uses quantum reality manipulation to bind infinitely looping dark universes to subjects from our universe in the sense of “selling their soul”, such that simple short term material outcomes are the manipulations needed to perform a mechanism similar to quantum entanglement but between universes and imprison the subject for ever. In our story here, it is possible that we are witnessing an infinitely looping dark universe within which the main protagonist roams around witnessing his own life in the forms of notes from his biography and restarting various stages to relive those tragedies again and again. The strange part is that these loops are all bound to one life that he led in the prime universe. The shadow of himself in this mirror universe is the Skibidi man who performs various ritual of mental/psychological and physical imprisonment.
Ans 6: The Skibidi man could easily be a being from a higher type of civilization and evidence of this is seen when we hear the last chapter of Johnny. He finds that the way to accept the impending trap or imprisonment is to accept that he is not only the Skibidi Man or the mirror universe in flesh, but actually is everything there is, which is true in a sense because all that exists in this game considering it as a separate structure of existence is the game and nothing more. Johnny is part of the code, the dlls whether it belongs to him or anything else is irrelevant. More like the anthropic principle. The real question you need to ask is who are you?

This is because if indeed The Skibidi Man is a type 7 civilization being, then we could be the mirror of a dark universe exactly like what you witness in the game. Another way to look at all this is to realize that the nirvana version of playing this game is to live in that world as role play as Johnny. Don’t try to beat it or get out. Just roam around listening to sounds and when you see the shadow, say hi! And move along. And yes animate it if you will or accept the reality of it being animated if you want to animate yourself by seeing with what is effectively a third eye. A virtual camera from which it spits out light. But more on that later, you can read more online about the third eye spitting out light and all that. Much of all this was put into the thought of the game design and the experience. It is very spiritual in that sense and was very fun to make. The game designer is fighting a terminal illness and has been forced to grapple these questions and thoughts and hence this game was designed to offer a safe way for one to experience some of that.
Ans 7: The story presents an exploration of gender identity as experienced by Johnny which is flawed as much as it is whole. The bizarre sequences, years of abuse and other matters are not in any way pre-requisites for any of the gender related discoveries however they are not differently entwined that a cup of tea in the fabric of life. While growth and reproduction drive the small, agriculture and war drive the large, love drives the universe. This is a very deep idea and doesn’t need to be hippie or liberal any more than a dark man running around making deals with kids and giving them nightmares forever is a conservative one. It’s a wholistic thing to think of attributes as an epistemological requirement in understanding ourselves within and without ourselves.
Ans 8: Yes, you can find the audio playlist of the entire novel and the story in written form on the FAQ page on the studionagarajan.com website. Look for this game under the “Games” section of course, not the "Hyperdrive" section. Here is a link for those who would like to follow things that should never lead : https://www.studionagarajan.com/wallz
Ans 9: The Skibidi man being a type 8, 8 dimensional being. The fact that it is not just everything but nothing and not just nothing but every nothing and concordantly a nothing’s nothing’s nothing,.. infinitely down into an abyss of non-existence.
Ans 10: Let’s keep moving please. Rest in peace Terrence M.
Ans 11: Because it’s fundamentally bad or fundamentalistically bad, because we live in a time when they are considered so and all of them sadly because there’s no way out and we need a villain to ignore the large bank accounts floating around and selling a third of time to buy a third of it back and lose a third of it doing so landing up with nothing in the end. Not the philosophically deep nothing, just the empirical one, a tomb stone.
Ans 12: It was just a step further than Bob Dylan. To make it seem more worth the trade.
Ans 13: And read a novel about running around in a maze…? Not really.
Ans 14: They are present for the purpose they serve and their actual presence would create more questions than they would solve however the camera in this one is tied to the years of photographic abuse that the main character faces. The clicking is a PTSD flashback to the countless pics that were taken in the past and thereby stealing a part of their soul. You could argue that since this universe is mirroring the real world, every click you take in this one is either someone taking a pic of Johnny or Johnny taking a pic of something he loves and eventually tragically loses. Shizukana love photography and has had to bear this same scenario in recent years especially losing many people he loves or the people he loved stealing his identity away with varied versions of capturing moments. The physical act of clicking over and over is also a mirror of Shizukana’s current situation of neuropathy wherein every click or type sending shooting pain from his fingers to his hands. Every single click or type is like hammering an anvil or metal structure and it hurts too while being strangely numb in surrounding areas.
Ans 15: That’s not a question, but thank you for reading this far and paying attention.
Ans 16: Apart from figuring out their path to recovery, reminiscing on lyrics like “Oh, keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel… The future's uncertain and the end is always near.”
Ans 17: It’s a possible answer to unifying physics and providing an everythingship equation using multidimensional mathematics regarding lattices. It’s an easter egg in the game and is a link between this game’s universe and a movie from Studio Nagarajan Inc. called E8.
