LIMINAL WATERS is a first-person atmospheric exploration game set within the unnerving yet radiantly beautiful spaces of a liminal aquatic complex, powered by Unreal Engine 5.6.
Gameplay
This is a pure walking simulator focused on immersive exploration. Players navigate through detailed, atmospheric environments without any combat, monsters, or traditional mission objectives. The core loop involves freely investigating the beautifully lit and handcrafted levels, guided by sophisticated sound design and subtle environmental events, with the simple goal of finding the exit to progress.
Story
The game does not present a conventional narrative. Instead, the story is environmental and experiential, crafted through the unsettling atmosphere of the mysterious pool rooms. Players piece together feelings of unease, confusion, and confinement from the surroundings themselves, creating a personal and introspective journey through these strange, dreamlike spaces.
