Content Warnings
Yes, +18. The project explores deep body horror with a visceral quality, delving into the aesthetics and moral implications of nudity and bodily extension. Violence is depicted in a graphic, unfiltered manner, permeating various facets of the experience and serving as a central focus on multiple occasions. I do not recommend this for those who prefer experiences where such elements are optional; in this case, they are not. They are an integral part of the journey I propose through Siham.

I’m a big fan of the body and mind in their entirety, with occasional absurdities thrown in here and there. This game was intended for two jams; I started it for the Week Sauce (October 2024) due to the themes Collecting Frights and We Have A Breach!, which cover concepts I wanted to explore regarding humanity and its various expressions of life. However, the Cosmic Horrors Jam III touched on themes that resonate throughout my project, such as Missing Link, Death is Only the Beginning, Submerged, and Mysticism. It was a cool coincidence that made the process a lot of fun. About a funny moment: I was almost throwing up from nervousness during the Cosmic Horrors Jam III. I submitted my project with EXACTLY 40 seconds to spare, and I had a fixed bug that I didn’t know how to resolve until the very last minute! Haha! Writing fiction in English is tough. I kept thinking, “Oh, I’ll figure out how to express that in English later.” I really need to stop doing that—it consumes an absurd amount of time and feels like a heart attack speed run.

Is your entry in another language than English?

Yes
