Inspiration
Philophobia is an action platformer based on the 5 stages of grief, where love is literal Hell, and the entire game world is made entirely out of hearts. The game is designed to be fast and engaging, but to also help people deal with grief, trauma, and dark emotions. Forced to deal with the trauma and pain of a relationship fallen apart, Philophobia developer Tim Ruswick took to what he knew best: games. He poured his heart, soul, pain and 5 years of his life into a passion project that would later become Philophobia: The Fear of Love. He hopes that his experience and creation can help others deal with grief like it helped him.
