a game that, once you've played 3 minutes, you've played the game. you swim around using these fungus that you need to swim over and press Z ontop of plants and nearby fish to catch them. this function is the primary one, and does not work very well. your movement does NOT stop when you do, and you're constantly fighting against the movement which feels like skating on ice, meaning trying to catch the fish led to your fungi is a nightmare of spinning around them, and you constantly edge slightly too far trying to place it on a plant, making you miss. the fungus cannot be moved or picked up again, so you just stare as you groan and go find a new one. the map is huge and you find yourself lost and swimming aimlessly, and the fish run away or ignore fungi at random times. the ART and snippets of story seems very interesting, and i like the design of the robot and other items. but it sadly is too slow and irritating, you also lose all your progress by leaving, with no save function to come back to it.
