About the Game

GLiTCHiA is a horror adventure.

When the retro 2D game glitches and breaks, the corruption spreads into the 3D space around you.
Sometimes you have to push the game further into chaos to uncover what was hidden...

...This place looks like your room at first. Behind you is a door.
On the other side is a black space, and something watching.
Keep playing the retro game in front of you, and react when the signs get closer. The knocking can turn violent.

The protagonist of this abandoned series is Aby, a familiar who dreams.
He was left in a wrong ending. Can you bring him back?

A game cartridge is handed to you by someone you do not fully understand.
Inside is Aby’s adventure: unstable, buggy, and ready to twist at any moment.

Your actions distort the retro world.
Through the glitches, disturbing shapes begin to appear.

Find the keepsakes hidden inside the game, and Aby changes as the series goes on.
As your connection to Aby becomes clear, the story opens up.
