About Tell the Ocean

Tell the Ocean"Guaranteed to be more disappointing than the end of Stephen King's Dark Tower series."This is not a game about fun. If that's what you're looking for, there are thousands of other wonderful games on Steam. This one is different.Tell the Ocean is a quiet place to clear your thoughts, write what matters, and sit with yourself for a while.The JourneyLevel 1: The BottleA hut on a desert island. A typewriter. Write what's on your mind — the angry email you'll never send, the thing you need to let go of, the thought that's been circling for days. Bottle it. Throw it into the ocean or burn it in a fire. Release it. Let it go.Level 2: The LibraryA library in the desert. A window looking out at a dark tower in the distance. Here, you write your mantra. The thing you want to hold onto. The word, the phrase, the intention that will guide you through the next level.Level 3: The GroveA small forest next to a tent. Five minutes of stillness. The mantra you wrote floats in front of you as you sit with it, accompanied by music and a view that doesn't ask anything of you.Level 4: The TowerYou climb the tower. At the top, a typewriter on a pedestal. Here, you write your to-do list. The only thing you actually came here to do. The journey was the preparation. This is the work. Why It ExistsI originally designed it to help with my writer's block, which it works wonders for. Sometimes you need to release what's stuck before you can focus on what matters. Because sitting still for five minutes is harder than it sounds. Because writing things down — even things you'll never show anyone — changes something.Tell the Ocean teaches you things you didn't know you knew about yourself. It won't give you a dopamine hit or a high score. It will give you a place to sit with yourself for a while. That's all. That's enough.Features
  • Bottle your thoughts and release them into the ocean or fire
  • Write a mantra in a desert library overlooking a distant tower
  • Five minutes of meditation
  • Beautiful music that doesn't rush you
  • A purple robotic cat to keep you company
  • A to-do list at the end of an epic journey that turns out to be exactly what you needed to write

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
