5 May 2009Today I Die
This game is not about winning, so only read this if you are about to give up forever!
1 – grab a jellyfish and keep it away from the piranhas enough time for the word “shine” to become yellow like “die”
2 – replace the word “die” with “shine”, and “dead” for “dark”
3 – using the glowing girl, move away the clouds until you see the tip of the buried statue, and pull it up until “swim” shows up. Replace “shine” for “swim”.
4 – switch “dark” for “painful”. This part can be solved in many ways, but the easiest one is to put “shine” back and grab the bubbles that come up and build a fortress of bubbles around the girl.
5 – prevent the shadows from sinking the girl until “free” becomes green.
6 – Replace “painful” for “free”, and drag the angry girl over all the shadows
7 – Replace “shades” for “beauty”, and bunch the glowing bubbles together.
8 – When the boy comes, you can choose to go with him or ignore him. Each choice will add a different, extra line to the poem, finishing the game.

what a beautiful game. The music is wonderful, it adds to the serenity of the underwater world. I would have liked it to be longer, and with more endings. But, the shortness also adds to how great this game is. *

Is the girl supposed to be happy or mad to see the boy?
By Seolyk on July 8
Got stuck between stages 5,6 and 7 when the girl dissapeared…

I read this when I couldn’t remember how to play the game the second time. I didn’t realise there were two endings. It really is a lovely game.

You won’t believe me… No one will believe me… But I somehow managed to “swim” in the “dead world” on my first playtrough (didn’t even know what I was doing). And now I can’t replicate it!!! AUGH! It must have been a bug, but still…

Beautiful…

What “clouds” on the second part? I’m confused! D:

Nevermind, I missed something. There we go!

Awesome! Now employ your skills to make something that isn’t rubbish!

Beautiful game.

This game was crap.
By Dissenter on September 14
total crap

Well, that was nice, the “join the boy” ending made me feel warm and fuzzy. I think using this guide might have taken something out of the experience, though…
By Eriksson on September 25
Don’t mind the imbeciles, it probably has to few explosions for them. Can’t please everyone.
This was beautiful.

Beautiful game, but I’ve found this game to have much more of an effect when listening to the music of composer Olivier Messiaen.

step 5 is retardedly hard for a pointless game
By Anonymous on January 3
step 5 is also bugged
“free” became green a cuple of times but shadows didnt stop chasing me
By Anonymous on January 3
Those shadow chicks suck! I finally gave up. Maybe you could make them a bit slower/dumber/killable?
By ben on January 7
Beautiful and unique.
By Dr. Fluffy on January 8
A poetry game. Loved it.
(Made it thru without walkthrough in a few minutes… step 5 wasn’t hard if you used bubbles. Perhaps it’s hard to make a game engaging for everyone while making it easy for everyone.)
By J on January 11
thanx for that! i liked it a lot, and so wise and philosophical (?)
and the sound was very emotional, i really was afraid the moment the world turnt painfull and the girl tried to swim!
By Simon on January 12
This is a nice work of art.
What I find most interesting is the player, once having started the experience, knows it’s incomplete and cannot be gratified by it, until having experienced it, at which point it is complete.
Nicely done.
By doug_in_pdx on January 14
Funny the people insulting the game and not being able to figure out step 5. . .
By Remy on January 14
safdf stupid
By lkjsadflk on January 18
Awesome. Beautiful.
By Angelique on January 20
Simple yet moving. An interesting way to combine interactivity, emotions, music, and words. I found it an interesting metaphor for depression.
I found it easy to keep the shadows away by surrounding the girl with the glowing spheres.
By Ari on January 21
This game is absolutely beautiful, and a great game. Thank you for making this awesome game.
By Quinn on January 28
that was so lovely.
By Mark C on January 29
pro game !!!
By kamal on January 31
What a beautiful game. I want you to know that, silly as it sounds, being 1:32 am where I live and given that I am now passing through a complicated moment and my life, this little gem holds a very personal meaning to me, which I guess was kind of what you setted out to accomplish in the first place. Thank you…
