oh

i don't know how long this is, but the way i felt when i realized there was more to this than just the fun movement was indescribable. i think you might be a genius

I saw this and thought it was like tiny demo showcasing some cool sounds and pathfinding, before realizing it was a puzzle game, before realizing that it was on a scale i couldnt even comprehend.

I feel like im a microorganism floating around, seeing things that appear to be breathing, but when i try to make sense of them i fail completely.
It's unsettling in a very strange way, this tapped into a fear of mine that that nothing else has. this is absolutely beautiful art op

so glad I decided to look through my following page today and catch this, spent so long figuring it out but I managed to complete it lmao.

Leaving the starting area into the vast openness felt scary. The first thing I tried was go out as far as I could to find another wall to ground myself to, but never found it. I hung around the starry farlands with the little blob friends I brought with me, left to a sorta contemplative state, thinking about how difficult it is to find direction in such an infinite space after leaving the small enclosure one is confined to.

I can't believe the main mechanic being taught completely flew over my head for so long though lol. I liked that "unlocking" these abilities really is just acquiring the knowledge of them, and relying on either memory or notes to use them (even before formally "finding" them), like spells as some have put it.
