Eyes of the Deep
Descend into the Deep
Eyes of the Deep is a short, esoteric puzzle game set in the undersea ruins of an ancient civilization. The game tells you nothing, not even the rules of the puzzles, leaving you to discover the environment for yourself. Navigate the ruins, understand the puzzles, and descend into the deep.

Great art style in this game!
I couldn't get to the end though, I got stuck in the room after screenshot 3... I feel like I haven't really understood the rules ^^'
But congrats overall, it was a nice time if a bit frustrating at first because I couldn't understand a thing! :D
Well, I believe that I've just finished the game--albeit with a little bit of cheating ;P--and it was a pretty fun experience!
Discovering the rules of the system was interesting--and at times tough! (The screenshot 3 room had me stumped for quite a while; it was actually another comment that prompted the experiment that allowed me to solve it, as I recall!)
As to... the other interaction in the game--the one found in each room, but not part of unlocking gates--that was intriguing. I'll confess that the changes between puzzles caught me out on a few occasions, although I adapted for the most part. (It was with this interaction that I cheated a bit.)
But yes, in the end, a nice, engaging, and mysterious game, I feel! ^_^
First person to discover the “other” interaction (did you “complete” that interaction?). Thanks for playing, glad you enjoyed the experience! :D
Aha! I'm glad to have been the first! :D
As to "completion", how would I tell...? Is it to do with the poem at the end...?
(I think that I completed it, in that I'm pretty confident that I performed it in every room--but it's hard to be sure, especially as I get turned around fairly easily!)
On which note: I could really have used a map! Even just a simple one. ^^; But I muddled through as it was!
Ah yeah you totally completed it (spoilers)!
Ah, excellent! I'm glad that I got it! ^_^
(And thank you for confirming as much! ^_^)
Lovely vibes!
Thank you!
can't crack the room that is shown in screenshot 3. Cool game tho
Ah and you’re so close to the end, too! Try returning to previous puzzles to make sure you understand the rules. Thanks for playing!
