Описание



В чужом океане рассказывает историю Эллери Вас, ксенобиолога, которая открывает внеземные формы жизни в поисках пропавшей напарницы.

Эллери получает от Минэ Номура вызов на планету Глиезе 677Cc. Прибыв туда, она обнаруживает лишь заброшенную базу. Эллери отправляется в плавание по океану тайн, имея в своем распоряжении только неисправный акваланг и странный ИИ, указывающий ей путь. Этим ИИ будете вы.

Направляйте Эллери и заботьтесь о ее безопасности, погружаясь все глубже в подводные инопланетные пейзажи. Вам предстоит узнать об уникальных формах жизни и темном прошлом планеты. Ваши отношения с Эллери должны выдержать испытание все новыми и новыми открытиями. Неожиданные повороты сюжета В чужом океане заставят задуматься о природе «естественной» и «искусственной» жизни, а также спросить себя, что означает быть человеком в эпоху тотального уничтожения окружающей среды. Чтобы жизнь продолжалась, она должна измениться.

Исследуйте инопланетный океан

Свободно перемещайтесь между локациями и открывайте новые территории вдали от проторенных троп. Эти открытия дадут улучшения и образцы, которые затем помогут попасть в новые зоны уже исследованных локаций, пройти дополнительные квесты и открыть уникальные диалоги с Эллери.



Посмотрите на мир глазами ИИ

Управляйте элегантным интуитивным интерфейсом с помощью касаний или мыши. Считывайте сигналы, выбирайте маршрут и составляйте карту океана с помощью интуиции и экспериментов.



Станьте ксенобиологом

Открывайте и каталогизируйте виды, наблюдайте, сканируйте, берите пробы и взаимодействуйте с инопланетной жизнью. Читайте заметки Эллери, смотрите ее зарисовки и помогайте ей классифицировать абсолютно незнакомую экосистему.



Планируйте погружения

Выбирайте, когда изучать существ, а когда расследовать тайны или нырять в новые зоны. Затем возвращайтесь на базу, чтобы изучить взятые образцы в лаборатории, поговорить с Эллери или прочесть ее дневники, чтобы больше узнать об этом мире.



Стройте крепкие отношения

Пользуясь ограниченными средствами общения, узнайте больше о человеке, в чьем акваланге вы живете, и помогите ей принимать сложные решения. Совместные переживания сблизят вас.

        In other waters is amazing, the artwork is beautiful and the story is addicting.

        This game was very enjoyable. The pacing is on the slower side but in my opinion that helps the anticipation build as you slowly learn information. It is, at it's core, an exploration game. As long as you don't go in expecting to be met with challenging puzzles, you'll find the artwork, the story, and the world-building are all delightful. I was emotionally invested and unlike some games, the ending left me satisfied. While it may not be a great game for replays, my first play through was very rewarding.

        Kinda like subnautica played from al-an's pov, or an ai running your ship&suit systems, its fun and calm while having an enjoyable story. Also notably less thalassaphobia for anyone who doesn't care for open water.

        You know a game is full of itself when most of the trailer is about reviews from sites you've never heard of.
        What little pics are listed here made me think this would be an Iron Lung type game where navigation is the main challange. But you just click on map nodes, and the game takes your there automatically, which seems to be the whole game.

        This game is so simple yet so fascinating! The exploration loop is downright addicting and the music does its part to create a very chill, relaxing experience despite the threat of the unknown (hate hate hate the bloom lol). It grants a very unique experience and perspective and I can't wait to play more!

        I had totally forgotten what this game was about when I just bought it - had wishlisted it months ago. Going into it, immediately there's a feeling of not knowing where or who I am, which is absolutely perfect design. The music is beautiful and so is the story and gameplay. It's simple and it's relaxing - exactly what I needed today!

        This was the first game I bought on Steam, and not once did I ever regret playing. If you love speculative ecology & exploration mixed with storytelling that can really make you think, this is an excellent game for you.

        I first found out about this game in a video from Curious Archive, a channel that discusses speculative evolution projects as well as discussing interesting tropes in media. The description & clips shown of this game caught my attention, so when I finally made my own Steam account, this was among the first games I bought.

        As I was exploring the environment of the water world, I found myself exploring every little nook and cranny I could find, trying to discover everything, wondering what new lifeforms were hiding around each corner, just waiting to be discovered. Simultaneously, I found myself wholeheartedly invested in the story.
        Without spoiling too much, I will say that some aspects of the story left me with a few questions by the end, but in this case, I feel it works in the game's favor. I want to know more about this incredible planet! I want to see what other forms of life have appeared, how big they can get, how they adapted to challenges both native and foreign!

        Don't be deceived by the simple-seeming appearance of the graphics or gameplay. While it may seem bland at a glance, once you start playing, you realize there is so much more to In Other Waters that, in my opinion, makes it worth every cent!

        A beautiful meditation on the wonder of the world around us and the importance of keeping it alive.

        While this game, with its text-heavy exploration, abstract art style and not particularly exciting moment to moment gameplay might not be for everyone, If you are looking for a serene contemplative experience that lets your mind's eye wander, it might very much be for you.

        The way I unearthed the layers of this alien ecosystem, specie by specie, description by description, each one more evocative than the last and revealing new aspects of the subject for me to imagine, just gripped me in its own unique way. A kind of zen sci-fi, fiction just for its own sake.

        In other words I went on a walk after I finished it and saw a pretty blue bird. Instead of just smiling and walking past I took a picture of it and managed to find the specie to read up more on it. Call me Minae

        A treasured experience of mine. If you're interested in an intriguing world to explore from a audio/textual experience, this game is so wonderful! It's use of simplistic visuals gives the game a book like feel, where the details are filled in by what you read and hear as well as the sparse visual details available. The result is a world that feels rich and full of life that immerses you even if you can't see it, or at least if you have the right kind of mind to imagine it so :)

        Plays out like a version of the Subnautica story where you have to imagine the scenes and events rather than being shown them.

        While it starts of slow and can get somewhat boring due to the simplicity of the mechanics, In Other Waters has hooked me with its dissonant sounds, minimal-yet-expressive interface, and powerful story.

        The game is good if you like small exploration games, however - the switching between scanning and moving is tedious and the movement speed is really slow. The story is okay - however it doesn't really get going until the last third and the love story at the center of it is unresolved. The DLC artbook apparently tells the story of the planet, but I feel like just leaving the central relationship unresolved leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

        In Other Waters is able to create a fantastic, vivid picture of its titular waters with little more than simple shapes, text and a few sketches. The creativity and believability of life in an alien ocean was easily the best part of the game. I especially liked that there was nothing recognizably vertebrate. The writing outside of the ecological descriptions was pretty good and the music was lovely. The UI was a little clunky and unintuitive at first, but that didn't last long. A really nice, short experience.

        Very chill, atmospheric game. It's very simple and sleek in appearance and gameplay. Most of the story and environment are described in a text format, which leaves a lot to the imagination which I personally enjoy. Once you gather enough data you earn a diagram depicting the flora and fauna to help flesh out the world. The story is intriguing without being too drama-heavy or bleak, and the game doesn't necessarily force you to follow the storyline. You can explore the world or follow the story at your own pace, which is nice. Overall an enjoyable, relaxing game.

        This game isn't for everyone but it's for me :)

        I would recommend if you:
        - like to read creature description in your game
        - like exploring every nook and cranny of the map
        - enjoy a slow pace game
        - don't mind game being short
        - don't have a problem with dialogue heavy/visual novel games

        I would not recommend it for someone who:
        - don't like shorter game
        - don't like reading
        - don't like turn base/ game without action
        - can't function without in game mini map
        - don't like same sex romance in the narrative (even implied)

        Other than that I genuinely thought this is a very well made game. The only complain I have is the ending which feel a bit rush, but it did not detract from the overall experience.

        I really enjoyed this game.

        It's a slow-paced game, and its minimalist graphics and heavy reliance on text to paint pictures for you, along with the waypoint-based movement, makes me want to class it as interactive fiction or something adjacent to it. You play as the AI in a futuristic dive suit, and you have no cameras with which to view the world, just an overhead topographic sonar map of your surroundings with life forms and points of interest represented by icons. You are dependent on your human operator to describe for you what she sees. I found the plot and exploration and mystery to all be very engaging, and the music and sounds and UI lend it a strong sense of atmosphere. It's clearly influenced by the Subnautica series (a pair of games I also really like) in terms of plot, characters and subject matter.

        The three highlights of this game from my perspective are the graphics style and art, the story elements, and the speculative biology. The game is not hard, but at some points does require a bit more attention. I enjoyed playing using a controller, and found it fascinating enough to complete the taxonomy entries. Overall a good experience.

        A very minimalist yet strongly immersive exploration of a beautiful alien ecosystem. The minimal graphics, rich text descriptions, rare but detailed concept art, and superb sound design and soundtrack craft a unique and beautiful atmosphere that begs to be explored. If you want a chill sci-fi marine biology excursion that works up your imagination in unorthodox ways, I can think of few better games to recommend.

        Honestly, i'm not really into story games that much but this one was pretty good, But i will say the game IS pretty short, only about 4 hours if you want to do it quickly and even if you plan on 100%ing the game, fully cataloging every single life form, i'd say it would probably only take like 10 hours max. but its still a great game, the story is unique and every interaction feels like it carries weight to it. but obviously, if you're going to buy this game, Buy it for the story! The gameplay itself really isn't all that interesting and can be a tad boring at times but thats really my only critique.

        I've gone back to play this after Citizen Sleeper, to see the progress that has been made by Jump Over the Age as a team. The first few hours made me unsure of what to think, it was stilted and quite slow(although pleasant enough). However, once the story beats pick up, and the music starts to sync with those beats, I had a really good time, albeit a bit bitter sweet.

        The game is short (It took me just over 6 hours to do everything) and the UI and game play mechanics are minimalist. The stars of the show are the teamwork between the writing and the music, creating strong atmosphere, it was perfect. I felt like I wanted to learn just as much as the main character about the planet that she found herself on.

        If you want something short, intriguing and with soul, this game will fit that itch. If you have played Citizen Sleeper and want more of the same feels, this is a good dose of that too.

        Thanks to you all for making this game, it will have a special place in my heart.

        Cute game. I enjoyed the simple UI and gorgeous colors. But I cannot recommend the game. I am a biologist and read academic journal articles. So perhaps my hopes and standards are too high, but I felt as though much of the biology-based writing in the Taxonomy page falls flat. The writing is quite variable between entries and can be hard to follow. Run-on sentences were truly the worst of it.

        Given the game's priority on discovering all the entries, I expected a more flavorful, true-to-life taxonomical recording / diary. 3/5 stars.

        Very cool game. Picked it up years ago, played it for a bit, put it down, finally came back and put in the time to complete it. Not that long of a game (as you can see from my playtime), but it's very calm yet dense for that amount of time. If you have any interest in biology or ecology this is a great game.
