The interactive graphic novel Hide explores new ways of storytelling. Hide is about a girl named Lark who is bullied at home and school, and she must decide whether to succumb to the dark emotions or triumph over them. The story is told from Lark’s perspective which is enhanced through art style, symbolism, motion, and color to express her current state of mind. Each interactable and artistic element invokes a certain emotion from the player. I also use these elements to add depth to worldbuilding. Every design decision is made to push the narrative. There are dark themes in this short story: mental health, verbal abuse, physical abuse, psychological behavior, social issues, and gender inequality.

The artwork is so incredibly gorgeous, and the story is really good, made me tear up! The only  problem is that the way it's formatted didn't let me see the whole game at one time so I had to scroll around to see everything, but I still loved it!! :)

It was a bit slow running, but it's an amazing game; I love the art work, the story line, everything
