ESC is unique in that it challenges the player's decision-making abilities through a protagonist who is not in control of their own actions, reflecting on real-world themes of freedom and constraint.
Emma Grosu's project explores the illusion of freedom within video games, much like the characters in 'The Truman Show' and 'Sword Art Online,' evoking a sense of profound introspection.
Using the capabilities of the PS5 controller, Emma enhances player immersion with haptic feedback and a dynamic camera system, effectively breaking the fourth wall.
The game encourages players to confront their perception of reality, questioning whether freedom is genuine or merely a construct shaped by constraints.
