'Soft Rewind' is a 3D interactive scene that explores emotional regression as a gentle return to childhood. Players navigate a surreal, vertically layered environment, beginning in a cluttered, adult-world office and gradually transitioning into a soft, dreamlike nursery that represents the earliest sense of self. Through the use of childhood objects, ambient lighting, and symbolic textures, Ruoshi’s work invites reflection on stress, memory, and emotional healing. Rather than treating age regression as escapism, this project reimagines it as a unique tool for comfort and self-understanding.
