Red for Luck

Red for Luck is a top-down role-playing game that centers around Rui, a non-binary Chinese-American college student, their daily life, and their struggles with mental health. The game as a medium was chosen for its ability to allow audience input and cross over into 4D. As the player goes about their day within the game, they find an old sketch of Rui’s, which mysteriously opens a portal on the wall beside their bed. This portal takes them into another world, where they must confront their desire of never being born. All in all, Red for Luck is about one’s battle with oneself, and ultimately, art-making as a process for healing.
