Highly emotive and thematic, with some poetic resonances. However, some of the text is clunky / jarring and it's not really a game - more of an 'experience' or an environmental promotion.

Hello, 

Thank you for providing a window into the sea! Great experience! I think I would of liked some kind of ending for the jellyfish and overall close to the experience. Very unique game, though.

A masterpiece

This had the same vibe as Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach. One of my favorite books Good job!

Simple, yet incredibly effective and beautiful

Sweet little game. I liked the story mixed with the simple pixel graphics and the incredible ambient music.

Nice submission.

Amazing story game! A couple of bugs but otherwise great!

Submitted

This was beautiful.

I don't know if it was intentionally timed, but the music softened and faded out when I reached the ocean floor and it was a perfect moment. I kinda wish I was just left with that silence and my thoughts after that.

ooh that’s such an interesting idea. I may play around with this - thank you!

This is actually amazing... From the narrative to the atmosphere, to the art, the music, the mechanics and the clarity... This game is beyond my comprehension... Absolute gem!

oh man, this is one of the best short narrative experiences I had in a while, what a text, so simple, so interesting

it feels like interactive poetry, I was really not expecting to find something like this in this jam
