Discomfort Zone is a 2D pixel-art narrative game about depression, anxiety disorder, despair, and recovery.

The game deals with many themes related to depression and anxiety: worry, loneliness, and self-deprecating thoughts, but also hope and finding the strength, when all seems lost, to keep going.
