If the build I uploaded gives you an error about the file you downloaded being damaged, try downloading through the itch.io app instead (https://itch.io/app). The app seems to consistently work well for mac builds that have trouble opening, and it’s a nice app!

Fantastic atmosphere in this one. I didn't get very far because the net throwing mechanic was really difficult for me for some reason - perhaps if we're allowed 2 additional nets, or if the fish timer is slightly more generous on an easier difficulty setting? Sifting for relics was excellent fun, and the overall vibe of this game felt overbearing in the best way. Dreadful and provocative.
Thank you for making it!
Incredible. Abandon your mortal flesh. Become something unbelievably ancient. Love the rephrasing of the common mythos of God and the origins of man. Maybe Eden lies deep beneath somewhere. Maybe this is something truly wrong. Two massive thumbs up.
Tons of great aesthetic design. Masterclass in how to get a mood going with basically no runway.
Freakin incredible vibe: deep sea prelapsarian Eraserhead baby cosmic body horror 12/10
I really dig this, the originality and lovecraftian tone is beautiful
another level of horror that i love so much, and this game is really good :3

Eerie and interesting. Definitely worth checking out!
I am using macOS Sonoma 14.5, and neither downloading apps directly nor installing games from the itch app works properly :(
thanks for letting me know i am going to take a look at it soon... do you know if your hardware is x86 or ARM?
It uses the ARM architecture. Thanks for your feedback, looking forward to playing your game!
So atmospheric,so eerie,simply awesome.Congrats.
This game was so weird and I loved it
Wow, I had the game on my desktop for a while, just remembered it had cool visuals. Playing this game made me a great little gaming night, pretty fun and immersive, love the story it sets with the monologues. Great game :)
great experience thank you !
This game was absolutely awesome for how short it was, worth the playthrough and support to this developer.
I’ve played a lot of games from this site, right? This is one of the first I did though, and it is still one of my favorites. I don’t think it will ever not be. I intend to play your other games, and I have ever since I streamed Discover My Body. I’m saving them though. For how special they are. I hope you continue to share your wonderful vision. I do apologize for how late I am in expressing my appreciation for your work, too. 😁
Oh my god your mind.
Do the beings you find down there have names? The squid face thing was an angel but what were the tall red dudes?
Which one is windows version
Holy moley, what a good game.
I just love your game, and i made a review to the misterious story with some academic knowledge, sadly is in portuguese, but i gone leave here in the coments for those who want to watch it. And please contiue your work, i'm waiting my credit card for purschase "growing my grandpa", thanks a lot Yames.
Wow
This is by far one of the best experiences I have had from an indie game on itch. Very unique art style, strong Lovecraftian atmosphere, everything about it was well done. I had a better experience from the 20-30 minutes playing this than I have from many 10+ hour games. I can't wait to check out more of your work!
Perfect. Love.
Very atmospheric. I loved it a lot.
This game is so impressive, the atmosphere is really powerful with a minimalist style and story is vivid with just the deranged obsession of the protagonist. It's very eldritch, and the methodical searching mechanic kept the tension up--I was basically looking over my shoulder just waiting for something terrible to happen. I really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing!
I played way longer than 15 minutes bc I'm clueless dum dum, but either way, I loved it!!! This game is very very atmospheric! Both visuals, mechanics and audio make this an amazing, unforgettable experience.
such a distinctive and inspiring game! loved the dark and gritty atmosphere, interesting mechanics, beautifully written dialog and audio/visuals are to die for! amazing amazing amazing
Love it!
I LOVE
