The player controls Ash and uses the DualShock 4's motion controls to create landscapes in the town of Denska. These landscapes turn into living portraits.[2] How the player paints creatures and what color they paint them will affect the personalities of each creature.[3] For example, red paint will grant a creature fire-breathing abilities.[4] In addition to free-style drawing, there is a set of core puzzles in the game that the player has to solve through their artwork.[4]
The player gains more access of Denska over time, but at the start of the game, the player only has access to a single neighborhood.[4] Throughout the game, the bullies will move through the town and cause the artwork to die. They can also bully Ash, so the player must avoid the bullies as Ash traverses the town. The player can also fix the ruined artwork.
Project manager Brent Gocke says the game is between five and six hours long.[5] The developer is currently looking into a multi-player component to the game.[4]
