In the world of indie games, it can be hard to stand out among the many options available. However, Even The Ocean Game manages to do just that with its unique blend of storytelling and platforming gameplay elements.
The Story
The game follows the journey of Aliph, a power plant technician who is sent to repair a malfunctioning plant in a city called Whiteforge. As Aliph works on fixing the plant, she begins to uncover secrets and mysteries about the city and its inhabitants.
The story is told through a series of conversations and flashbacks, gradually revealing the complex history of Whiteforge and its people. The game also touches on themes such as environmentalism, corruption, and social inequality.
The Gameplay
At its core, Even The Ocean Game is a platformer, with Aliph navigating through various levels filled with obstacles and puzzles. However, what sets this game apart is the unique energy system that governs Aliph’s movement.
Aliph has two types of energy: White and Black. White energy represents physical movement and is used for jumping and running, while Black energy represents emotional energy and is used for powering Aliph’s special abilities.
This energy system adds an extra layer of strategy to the gameplay, as players must balance the use of both energies to progress through the levels. It also ties into the game’s themes of balance and harmony.
The Aesthetic
Even The Ocean Game boasts a stunning pixel art style, with vibrant colors and detailed backgrounds. The game also features a beautiful soundtrack composed by the same team behind the music in another popular indie game, Night in the Woods.
The combination of the visuals and music creates a hauntingly beautiful atmosphere that perfectly complements the game’s thought-provoking story.
Final Thoughts
In a sea of generic platformers and predictable story-driven games, Even The Ocean Game stands out as a unique and refreshing experience. With its captivating story, challenging gameplay, and stunning visuals, it’s a must-play for any fans of indie games or platformers in general.
“Even The Ocean Game is a shining example of how gameplay mechanics and storytelling can come together to create a truly memorable gaming experience.”
