A short (about 15 minutes) horror game. Explore the sea floor, catch fish, sift through silt to find objects, study in your lab, try to find Eden.

This game is best played with mouse and keyboard. Press F4 at anytime to engage fullscreen mode.

 !!Instructions For Mac Users:!!

If the build I uploaded gives you an error about the file you downloaded being damaged, try downloading through the itch.io app instead (https://itch.io/app). The app seems to consistently work well for mac builds that have trouble opening, and it’s a nice app!  

If you liked this game and are interesting in chatting about it or other Yames games,  consider dropping by my discord server and/or signing up for my Patreon page! I'll be posting about Water Womb World's development process for my patrons and also going into detail about its inspiration.

i can't stop thinking about this game

Loved every moment of it!! :--) Especially the atmosphere, the dark and gloom really ARE a comfort

Eerie and interesting. Definitely worth checking out!

I am using macOS Sonoma 14.5, and neither downloading apps directly nor installing games from the itch app works properly :(

Exit code Ox1 (1) for (Water Womb World.app)

thanks for letting me know i am going to take a look at it soon... do you know if your hardware is x86 or ARM?

It uses the ARM architecture. Thanks for your feedback, looking forward to playing your game!

So atmospheric,so eerie,simply awesome.Congrats.

Very fun!

This game was so weird and I loved it

Wow, I had the game on my desktop for a while, just remembered it had cool visuals. Playing this game made me a great little gaming night, pretty fun and immersive, love the story it sets with the monologues. Great game :)

great experience thank you !

This game was absolutely awesome for how short it was, worth the playthrough and support to this developer. 

I’ve played a lot of games from this site, right? This is one of the first I did though, and it is still one of my favorites. I don’t think it will ever not be. I intend to play your other games, and I have ever since I streamed Discover My Body. I’m saving them though. For how special they are. I hope you continue to share your wonderful vision. I do apologize for how late I am in expressing my appreciation for your work, too. 😁


Oh my god your mind.

Do the beings you find down there have names? The squid face thing was an angel but what were the tall red dudes?

Wow

This is by far one of the best experiences I have had from an indie game on itch. Very unique art style, strong Lovecraftian atmosphere, everything about it was well done. I had a better experience from the 20-30 minutes playing this than I have from many 10+ hour games. I can't wait to check out more of your work!

Perfect. Love.

Very atmospheric. I loved it a lot.

This game is so impressive, the atmosphere is really powerful with a minimalist style and story is vivid with just the deranged obsession of the protagonist. It's very eldritch, and the methodical searching mechanic kept the tension up--I was basically looking over my shoulder just waiting for something terrible to happen. I really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing!

I played way longer than 15 minutes bc I'm clueless dum dum, but either way, I loved it!!! This game is very very atmospheric! Both visuals, mechanics and audio make this an amazing, unforgettable experience.

such a distinctive and inspiring game! loved the dark and gritty atmosphere , interesting mechanics , beautifully written dialog and audio/visuals are to die for! 

(+1)

Love it!

I LOVE

Good atmosphere, funny dialogues, good mechanics and it's scary, quite weird?

I really liked this game, it has a very cool atmosphere of the ocean depths, I advise all fans of not ordinary horror games to play this game

soooo, i dont have a mac. is there a way to get this for windows

The game is for windows too, just hit download

Ngl, I liked this one alot, nicely done, to me, it gives more of a 70s horror feel in terms of story and theme, and could pass as a late 70s game imo, this passed for me.

holy shit. this is fantastic. i only wish it was longer, it's so beautifully written i could've spent an hour just reading the dialogue. you've made something truly special.

This game, even though it was relatively short, was one of the most interesting games with the most unnerving and different atmosphere I've ever witnessed, this Lovecraftian tale with religious and psychological horror elements fit together very well and really makes you more curious about what was going on, the biblical elements and this nautical, relaxing and strange music goes very well, I just wish it was longer and with more elements

This was fantastic. The writing, the visuals, the audio, everything.

I do have one suggestion, though. "All of the sudden" should be "all of a sudden."

you are an asshole genuinely. Middle finger. /hj
