    I think the game is a comment on how someone's zealous obsessions can overtake them to the point that they have confirmation bias in everything they see and they eventually lose themselves to their obsession. The "angel" in the game I believe is a manifestation of the characters last shred of self/logic/common sense warning them that if they progress any further, their obsession will consume them whole and there's no turning back.

      I see this alot in apologetics too, they filter scientific facts through their holy text, then twist what they can to fit their views and discard the rest, reject it as lies.
      So when he sees the eldrich horors here to take him, in his zeal to reconfirm his bias, he refuses to see them as something dangerous, but rather angels of his god.
      By ignoring clear warning signs, he digs himself ever deeper into willfull ignorance, rather than face the dangerous reality right infront of him.

    It's maybe actually obvious, but i think the game is about the creator of life being not exactly that we humans imagine: some understandable and more or less comprehensible God, but rather something alien/eldritch, far beyond that we could understand, maybe something malice even, and the "fall from grace" is actually distancing from such monstrosity, not other way, and ascend to "God" means become part of this horror, and this is beginning of humanity, and end as well, there is no other way to go for us, we can only suffer in state of incomplete mortals as we are now, or return to our eldritch origin and be part of it. Quite existentially scary.

    I always assumed it was both humanity's source and a trap. That humans originated here, living long happy lives, but enslaved to this coral creature, rendered unintelligent. Eventually some humans escaped and fled right out of the ocean to be as far from it as possible. Their history became myth over time, a tale of God, Eden, and Original Sin. But "God" is immortal and will gladly welcome back any humans who venture down there.

    My theory is that the main character is given a choice by the yellow angel: either continue to try to understand God, and in doing so shed your ability to think and reason to return to the "womb", which is the state of humanity before Adam tasted the fruit of the tree of knowledge and was "born" into the mortal world, or retain your humanity and leave. It's the Lovecraftian idea that trying to know or understand something that humanity was never meant to understand transforms you into something no longer really human, except instead of Cthulu, it's the Christian God.

  • @user-2012July-A

    I wonder if the first guy, is implied to have become one of the creatures you see? So perhaps the skull is what is left from the person who died, and the diving gear is what is left behind because it was 'no longer needed' much like how our character 'no longer needs' the diving gear. The human mind is a curious thing. As the saying goes, sometimes ignorance is bliss. He went looking for something and may have found it, but he won't be able to remember he was looking for it. So perhaps he found it AND the trap is that once you find the thing, you no longer remember your humanity in the first place.

    This game feels like you'd ask the writer what inspired it and they'd answer you with one word that feels so random like "Cheerios" but then it bothers you so much that you think of the connections it until it makes sense and can finally sleep at 3:16 am.

    Personally, I feel like the main character found the "womb" but he had to forsake the "mistakes" of his predecessors, who ate the fruit of knowledge, which is what led to Adam and Eve gaining their sentience and thus expulsion from the Garden of Eden. So instead, his body and mind reverts back into a primordial form and joins others who came before him, forsaking his knowledge and entering the womb as a mindless "angel."

    A good first step to getting immersed in all the spooky stories in the games Yames makes is a good sense of scientific vocabulary so you can properly understand all the dialogue and lore, which for alot of people is a pain in the ass 'cause they're dumb, but when you really think about and understand all the text the reality of what's going on in these games really hits hard for a good unique scare that no other horror game has ever given

    You know, as someone who enjoys the lovecraftian horror genre, but doesn’t know a ton about it, I have to say, I would consider this solid, if it wasn’t short and sparse. I needed more research, more strange specimens, the “angel” needed to come later, and the researchers descent into madness needed to be stretched out some more. The pieces were all there for a solid eldritch horror game; it was just too short.
    I guess I don’t know much about Yames Games, is this a feature of his creations?

    I've always interpreted this game as the man actually finding "God", that pulsating red eye thing at the end, and becoming one of the angels after feeling God's presence and eating the coral. The squid messenger said he was walking a contrary path as man actually did fall from grace getting kicked out of the Garden of Eden, so the man found the truth and "decided" to return to God and undo what his ancestors like Adam the first man did to get kicked out

I know that you can see the title if you look at the tags, but in case UA-cam makes hashtags less visible to viewers in the future, I think it would be a good idea to put the name towards the top of the description. Plus, I think it's a nice courtesy to the creators to have the title & link more visible
