  • A dark and strange time to be a dream fish... Really enjoyed this, especially given the time frame. Great work!

I was really impressed by the amount of detail you were able to put in this game. Visually it is a very coherent game, the high fidelity suits well the themes you approach. From an audio perpective, I played with a monitoring headset and the playthrough was a treat, having voice acting really helps to convey the emotions and filled the space with some kind of dark heavy tone.

Gameplay wise I found that the loop worked well and contrarily to the other comment I didn't had any difficulty to find what to do next.  Maybe the movement was a bit slowish as a human and undewater, but it could also be voluntary so i'm not having a problem with that.

If I had one advice, it could be that the items used during the game could have been related to the characters backstory, to emphasize on the trauma/memory themes. But other than that it was a great experience, congrats !

this is a good game! It's really hard, I can't figure out where to go after completing / finding an item

Once you pickup an item as the fish it will automatically teleport you into the real world. When you find an object in the real world you have to bring it back to your bed and go back to sleep. Thank you so much for playing the game! I hope this helps!
