Sophie's Games

Synergy is an environmental puzzle platformer with a serious message behind it.

You play as ‘the spirit of humanity’ trying to advance / progress / achieve new goals by reaching the end of the level.  As you travel through each puzzle everything you touch becomes corrupt.  There are ways to regenerate the environment, which you discover during the game, but to leave the whole level intact takes more thought and becomes increasingly difficult to work out.

With each puzzle the player has a choice; to solve it and leave the entire level green, or to move on without a complete solution.  The player can continue their progression without environmental solutions but it will eventually catch up with them and halt their advancement.  The game is a very rough and minimal representation of humanities relationship with our environment.
