I love this game. The concept behind it is so neat, and combining it with elements of psychological horror makes it even better. I am not going to lie, the eye of the watcher will haunt my dreams for a while.
“Prove your worth” was the main thought in my head while playing. It is sad how this idea can dominate almost everything in modern life, which made me relate to the poor alien squid even more. I loved that the watcher speaks in gibberish, which really adds to the confusing and tense atmosphere you created.
I noticed that you have to avoid the red orbs to get a better answer, and with the great controls, avoiding them gave me a mixed feeling of anxiety from an unwanted outcome and satisfaction from the responsive gameplay. The art style and overall atmosphere of the game are wonderful. I just wished the experience had lasted a bit longer.
Wonderful work.
