How it feels

A peaceful, minimalist walking sim in an open swimming pool world with subtle puzzles and a meditative feel, created by a young solo developer.

What players say

Players are divided on this early access poolcore game. Some praise its affordable price and dreamy scenery, but most criticize its broken controls (crouch mapped to C instead of L-Shift), impenetrably dark lighting, and the sudden late-game parkour that feels out of place. Long-time players say development stalled with no updates since 2023, leaving the game short and unfinished.
