I LAUV THIS SO MUCHHH I forgot to comment but I played this the second I got the announcement in the server. Though this will not be one of my fav games, I still enjoyed the experience and stuff. I love the characters, the metaphors/symbolism, the mystery, how after I first chose to follow them in the sea, my mind just went "WHAT THE HELL" and had so many more questions. Reading the discussion chat helped me understand it more, lmao. Thank you for another beautiful game <33
This is the same message I’ve given on the review, pasted because I really want someone else’s opinion too.

I really wanted to enjoy this more, but I genuinely couldn’t. I believe it’s great for a game jam, but both endings are just…that?
I’m not going to explain everything I dislike for spoiler reasons, of course, and I always love the games SIG puts together, I’ve played every game currently released multiple times, but there’s SO much left of this game that could’ve been explained that wasn’t. It was very vague, TOO vague for a game standpoint. Morally? Yes, I understand the idea. But for a game? It doesn’t explain a majority of so many unseen points that it leaves you unfulfilled and wanting more, so much to the point that it’s just unsatisfying. I don’t see how people are saying they cried over the endings, when there’s nothing to cry over.
Aside from the story, I believe the art is gorgeous as always, and the music is as amazing as it always as. I just wish so much more was able to be explained, and I believe if it wasn’t made just for a game jam, it could’ve done just that.
NOW MAYBE I’m just not getting the memo, and if someone provides me another view later on, that would be amazing, I’m just very upset that it didn’t turn out to be as much of a banger compared to past games :(
I feel the same as you when it comes to how vague the the story is. I would have really liked more of a solid explanation on certain reasons for their behavior, it was a big mystery that I would have liked to solve during the game. Had that been explained or expanded upon a little, I would have accepted the endings a little more than I did. I did really enjoy the art and music too, the different representation for body types were also nice to see! But getting to the endings was just a little disappointing and left me feeling lackluster.
Now I completely agree with this. When I watched my friend stream this for me, both of us really didn’t give us much. If anything, we had to theorize majority of these things, which.. isn’t that much of a problem, but it was a painful “what is this?” Thing we both had until the end of it when we were scrolling through this page where we just had an “oh that’s what it is” moment. (It was that confusing)
And the crying thing as well, we (or at least I) couldn’t just feel emotional over this game. Yeah, there was a couple of shocks and whatnot, but crying was not one of them. Compared to the rest of these games, this isn’t much of a replay-able one, if you can like.. see what I’m trying to say.
Your comment/review on this is better than what I can word it and I’m glad I can find someone who expresses my thought on this game nicely! :3
WOW YOU GUYS PUMPED THIS OUT SO FAST!! Good job, crazy good how all the cgs are just so good and there is so many you're cracked! Great music too btw as always! Not gonna lie I nearly broke down after those endings but I thought about it and it worked rly well! Great buildup and mystery too! ALSO TY SO MUCH FOR JUNE, I LOVE HER DESIGN!!! (in as not weird way as possible I just like to see different types of people in games!) Anyways thanks for making another banger free game and good luck on your next project!
what was the main message? i really enjoyed the game but I'm really lost on what was happening and why I'm seeing a lot of ppl mention a lot of metaphors but i didn't pick up on any so please if u know pls explain
I loved this game, the ending was fairly confusing, but other than that it was enjoyable. I loved the characters, and the art is beautiful. I LOVE RYAN!
Idk. The metaphor feels kinda ham fisted with how out of the blue it is! If the friends were foreshadowed to have poor tendencies before all the water shit started going down, then the metaphor might have been more salient in my eyes.
I encountered a bug while playing a game, it restarted and I lost all of my progress because I forgot to save it. Amazing game from what I saw though, can't wit to actually be able to finish it !!
What happens when if my device says it cannot recongize the game or the application and can't determine if it is a malware or not?? (something like that please help :,) I am using a mac)

what was the main message? i really enjoyed the game but I'm really lost on what was happening and why I'm seeing a lot of ppl mention a lot of metaphors but i didn't pick up on any so please if u know pls explain
I loved this game, the ending was fairly confusing, but other than that it was enjoyable. I loved the characters, and the art is beautiful. I LOVE RYAN!
i loved this, played as soon as i could! the metaphor for friends that hurt you dragging you down and under is well done!
Idk. The metaphor feels kinda ham fisted with how out of the blue it is! If the friends were foreshadowed to have poor tendencies before all the water shit started going down, then the metaphor might have been more salient in my eyes.
I encountered a bug while playing a game, it restarted and I lost all of my progress because I forgot to save it. Amazing game from what I saw though, can't wit to actually be able to finish it !!
did i miss something out.. the ending confused me wawasw AMAZING GAME THOUGH

What happens when if my device says it cannot recongize the game or the application and can't determine if it is a malware or not?? (something like that please help :,) I am using a mac)
You're going to go to your system setting scroll to the very bottom and there should be a button and it should say 'open anyway'
click that and you'll be good
