Freebie Friday: Resonance of the Ocean


On Freebie Fridays you can find a free game to check out courtesy of Gamer Reverie. The genres and quality will vary, so be sure to check each time to see what I've dug up for you!


    This won't be a series with a ton of pictures and explanations. Just a glance at the stats, a quick description of the game and its genre, and why I thought it was worth sharing (aside from being free).

Publisher: Image Labo
Release Date: July 8, 2022

Genres: Adventure, casual, indie
Available: Steam



A sound reverberated from beyond the ocean.

At the edge of a desolate island, pick up what the waves wash ashore to make instruments. Use those instruments to answer the echoes heard from beyond the ocean.

In this hand-drawn world, enjoy a soothing soundscape formed by waves, footsteps and the sounds made from things washed up.

Resonance of the Ocean is a short adventure game you can play in 10 ~ 30min. This game was made in the 22nd unity1week, a Japanese game jam event. This version is updated with an English localization and with small changes. In unity1week, this game placed 4th in the overall ranking, and 1st for art and sound.

Controls
This game only supports keyboard controls.

Arrow Keys: Move
Space Key: Confirm
ZXC Keys: pick up, replace, throw, search
Shift Key: Move to the lighthouse

Save Function
There is no save function available as the time required to complete the game is short (10 ~ 30 min). Thank you for your understanding.
 


       Collect objects, and make musical sounds from them to reply to the sounds you're hearing from the ocean? Yes, please. As someone who both loves music and is always cobbling odd bits together to make stuff (just ignore my plastic drawers packed tight with random items, okay?)... this is right up my alley! If you think it might be fun, too, you can pick it up for free on Steam via this link or click the embed here:
