Great game I liked the atmosphere slowly decaying overtime and that you can fight the plant dudes. Can't wait to see what else you make in the future. 5/5
barbotine is Silent Hill on steroids. Short, creepy and a game that seems to promise more than what is presented to us. I can't explain the story since I didn't understood it, but I can't recommend it enough.

So I accidentally misread atmospheric as aesthetic on the itch page, thought it was funny, and made that a bit during my video. My dyslexia apologizes 😂. On a more real note, the game was really well made. It definitely nailed that creepy, eerie vibe. Only problem I had was the combat system, idk if it's just too small of a window to stun them, or just a skill issue on my part. Regardless, keep up the awesome work!
If this is what anxiety is like, I never want to experience it! You did very well, I especially liked the combat, it was satifying! I mentioned in the game, but I mentione it here too, that you made the graphics and some parts, that if you look too much at it, makes you sick, literally.
I created an account with the sole purpose of telling you how GREAT this game was! To have it up for free is almost highway robbery!
It has a very pleasing gameplay loop that was both interesting to look at and satisfying to control. The little details such as the meat texture on the menus and the anatomically correct hearts as the health indicator add to the unclean, grimy, organic visual language.
The instructions on what to do are clear and unobtrusive, which is a rare sight in other indie games on this site. All-around well done.
Unfortunately not. I decided to restart the project after 2 years of development because it's such a mess. It's currently in what one could call pre-production for a reimagined version. :)
Your video was an absolute joy to watch, thank you. It’s an honor to have someone so eloquently discuss Barbotine in a video essay format, I never thought that would happen. Given the quality, I’m also super surprised that this is your first ever video essay. I sincerely appreciate the amount of time and effort you must have put into the video. It’s so well written, delivered and edited. It’s simultaneously hilarious and touching. While I don’t want to comment too much on the accuracy of your interpretation of the game, I will say that you are very observant and I’m looking forward to hearing your insightful analysis of other games.
Water is the enemy! And if I never drank it I would of never 'Tripped Balls" But hey you made tripping on balls fun, so I would at least applaud for that. And I think it is worth everyone's time to try it out! Plus if you want to see someone butcher a perfectly good game? You can, I don't why but you can!
the final arc w fifteen monsters were too hard for me i feel like im being bullied would have been better if i got like 10 hearts or sth great game tho
Coincidentally, I've just finished a patch where you have the option to add 5 more hearts. Just need to play-test and I'll be uploading the new build in the coming days. Thank you for playing and giving your feedback! :)

Great game, Wish there was more!
cool game! loved the style
This game was pretty fun and the progression of the madness/plague and such was great! Nice job!
Combate bem feito, colocando a ansiedade em prática junto do timing dos ataques dos inimigos, história confusa, mas já é o padrão de jogos de terror.
Played this, thought it was cool. Loved the combat portion.
The hands were cool too.

game was deff different but man fighting those guys were tough (im garbage)

Any release date for Aftershock: Coastline?
Wow thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Unfortunately not. I decided to restart the project after 2 years of development because it's such a mess. It's currently in what one could call pre-production for a reimagined version. :)
Allright. Its needs what it needs in order to come back with a working version. :-)
I decided to make a video essay about this game! I share what i personally believe the game is about in this.
