Memory's Abyss (Chapter Zero)

Didn't find a way to crouch in HTC Vive. Got stuck becouse of that and can't progress further.

"Memory's Abyss (Chapter Zero)" is a rather mediocre tech demo/experimental "more art than game" piece (and it's worth noting... art is when the peaks of craftsmanship, and creative narrative meet together... this has neither of those). It's a casual puzzle platformer where you explore a liminal, inhuman, and colossal world... by which we mean a bunch of untextured/stock textured low poly blocks. Ever wanted to see what a half made game looks like? No? Wow... they screwed up the premise then. Being "Chapter Zero" this implies this was meant to be a demo/advertisement for a much larger, presumably paid product... and no, we don't like adverts. The game is really simple and unambitious in terms of implementation, more of a tech demo or one of those cases where an amateur developer spends $100 to publish something on Steam Direct to see if it's possible. Yes, obviously it's possible. A proof of concept, tech demo, or something that's less than a little blip on the radar isn't offering anything truly valuable to gamers. This game features very lacklustre minimalist "art" for graphics instead of anything remotely contemporary. I'm sure the "developer" thought this would come …

I love the environment, the different movement mechanics added so much to the game. The music is very fitting for each area. Would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND. 4.99999 stars, you can jump up ramps and gain momentum, fun to do tho.

Memory's Abyss (Chapter Zero) is a surreal first-person exploration experience that combines atmospheric wandering, environmental puzzles, platforming, and fragmented storytelling. Developed by motif and nyanomalous and published by motif, it is built around the sensation of entering a place shaped by incomplete memories and abandoned dreams. Rather than pushing the player through a conventional sequence of missions, it encourages curiosity and interpretation, allowing its strange environments to communicate much of the story. The central attraction is the world itself. Players travel through large, lonely spaces that frequently feel familiar without being completely understandable. Architecture, pathways, objects, and distant landmarks create the impression of places remembered incorrectly, giving exploration an intentionally dreamlike quality. There is an effective contrast between peaceful isolation and underlying uneasiness. Some locations can feel almost calming, while others create the uncomfortable impression that the player has wandered somewhere they were never supposed to reach. Progression revolves heavily around exploration. Fragments scattered throughout the environm…

I do not understand those possitive reviews. Ok, its fine, but like 2.5 / 10 fine. Music is not that good like these reviews are telling you. Best music is at the end like 10 seconds.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH ITS SO WEIRD AND FUN
