Drifting with Diya is an immersive VR narrative where users embody a 25-year-old woman with ADHD. It explores her daily experiences with joy and overstimulation. Her experiences are defined by much more than her diagnosis.
Users step into Diya’s shoes, with everyday situations escalating into heightened sensory challenges through interactive mechanics.
