    The developer of Swallow the Sea has released a new game called Perfect Vermin, where you kill flesh monsters that disguise themselves as office furniture. It gets pretty weird! You can check out a gameplay video here: ua-cam.com/video/vC94L-H8LJw/v-deo.html

      I think this game is much better, because it has a deeper meaning like: how life works, the figth for power, the glory of the strong ones, the acend and fall of the kings, that there will always be some stronger than us, the pragnatism of been cruel, the sweet taste of revenge, etc. In perfect vermin you go destroying mimic furniture and then repeat the same... and nothing more.

    Y'know, I think there's actually a clue in the game itself as to Borrus's ultimate fate. It cuts to black, supposing to leave it up to the viewer's imagination whether or not Borrus was able to get out of the way or not, but I think the game has already told us in a really clever way that he doesn't.
    Go back to the very start of the game and look at the bottom of the screen. Took me a while to realize that thing is a meter that tells you how close you are to your next evolution. More importantly, the icon at the top of it shows you what your next stage looks like. A 4-celled embryo.
    Every time Borrus changes, this icon changes, too, to show you what the next "stage" in his life will be.
    Now look what happens at 6:33.
    Once you've seen the ending of the game, the meaning of that is unmistakable.

    Everyone's interpretation is different, but what's amusing to me is the end seems like the creatures fall victim to a machine, which is an invention by humans. So there are human-like monsters out of water that hunt those things? What's also amusing is the player character works to be the strongest to survive, only to be bested by a mechanism that don't evolve into all teeth and monsters.

      Actually the entire game technically is that, the species that borrus (the foetus thing) who I will call boris cus its easier, is clearly shown eating smaller Boris’S (?) and also being chased by a giant fish snake called Orro who just like boris also has a human like head and wouldn’t you know it is a cannibal and that lends itself to the myth Orro Borrus which is a massive snake eating its own tail meant to represent infinity. Proving that the enemies do fight each other even if you don’t see it.

      To be fair, you can hear a heartbeat at the end of the credits. That at least symbolizes some sort of rebirth, if not survival. I mean, it seems more borrus-babies are born from the flesh (starting area + area with all the siblings). It does make me wonder though, what's the purpose of crushing all of the creatures? Is it simply for consumption? Are they creating an artificial birthing ground? If so, *why?*

    @maui5049 4 роки тому +17

    Borrus is still alive.There are 2 reasons why I think Borrus (the fetus) survived.The first is that he realized he was going to be crushed, so he quickly gathered strength, got up and possibly escaped, apart that it was on the edge of the range where it was crushing, so one move and it was safe. The second is that there was a gold body there (the humanoid whale) which by the time the machine crushed gold, it will be very hard so it may be that it makes the machine run and berrus escape, or the other is that it gives you time because of how hard it is another (the humanoid whale), so the machine will have a hard time crushing it and berrus (the fetus) successfully escapes in what it takes for the machine to crush the humanoid whale. Finally berrus is still alive and quite possibly we will see a second chapter of this game

    That time you eat vobbles and borrus your icon at the bottom of the screen changes from orange face to a bloody blob, I wonder what is it means?

      It kinda looks like a view of the borrus' teeth, maybe you were supposed to be the younger version of the borrus but you didn't have enough time to grow big enough before getting dropped into the grinder.
