RIVEN SPLIT

The game opens with UNA falling and splitting into RIVEN. The RIVEN siblings have abilities opposite of each other. Light RIVEN can walk in strong light and sunlight, and dark RIVEN can walk in the shadows. Players will have to cooperate to finish each level. One can not continue on alone.

This co-op puzzle levels are metaphors for life struggles and challenges, where both the light and dark side of one's character have to be present to continue onward in life, on to the next one, as one grows up/ gets back up. RIVEN will be reunited back to their original form, UNA, as a fully grown person.
