Digital Girl World (2024) is an animated teaser showcasing the viewer’s attempt at survival after being transported into a horrific version of the Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA).
Your only ally, a young, hyperfeminine girl named Naami, is helping you find a way out of this liminal space PNCA. Can you trust this girl? She looks sweet, but something about her feels…off.
I have created a narrative that reclaims hyperfeminine women’s sense of autonomy in the horror genre by merging and contrasting hyperfeminine and retro horror game aesthetics. The genre is a psychological horror with visual novel elements, animated as a point-and-click adventure game.
