This touched me. The seal's chipper nihilism and paternalising praise turn the casual gameplay into something dark and bitterly sisyphean, right up to the cathartic ending. That optional last cairn is a powerful image. Very atmospheric visually and with the music; I liked the reactivity, longer melodies rewarding your progress on the cairn, and how the seal even comments on your use of non-rock objects (even if it's all ultimately designed to hurt you). Personally, I also enjoyed this as kind of a polyvalent development on Deconstructeam's Eternal Home Floristry. Excited to see what else will come out of this collaboration!
