Sensory Overload ·

A tunnel designed to overwhelm your senses.

Falling, dodging and a solo developer deliberately making everything too much.

Why it caught our eye

Sensory Overload is unusually honest about what it wants from you. The tunnel twists, the colours change and the speed climbs while you try to avoid whatever comes next.

Joe found the possibility of settling into that chaos interesting: something so busy can start to feel oddly calming once you find the rhythm. This is one to judge from the footage before jumping in, especially if rapidly changing visuals aren’t your thing.
