The game intentionally tries to trick you into thinking the enemies are jellyfish deer so the sudden reveal that the heads are actually just upside down frogs that were taken over by the parasitic jellyfish is terrifying and the fact that the green ones make your player frog happy in some way makes it even more scary
To be honest i agree with you,the whole gimmick of this game is you trying to stop a thing (i think) but the artstyle and creatures is enough to terrify you,the amount of relieve you feel after returning to the surface is just unexplainable
@@artubb6gaming732The fact that the parasites have frogs as heads tricking us into thinking it's an animal swimming for life is just straight up terrifying. JUST imagine if it's a real event.
This game is genuinely so creepy and uncomfortable.... I love it. Like goddamn this game is actually a master piece from the art to the mystery of the jellyfish to the sound design.
This may not be bloody or gorely or “scary” but… the ideas presented in the game that eventually you realize if you look closer is the true horror (it’s like a normal thing a fictional character or world have as an power or object or animals or do and then realizing how messed up it is.
if the parasitic jellyfishes are bigger than the frogs, does that mean that the jellyfishes are just medium sized jellyfishes and the boss is just human sized? (first phase) I also have a theory how the jellyfishes first start. at 2:19 you can see some sort of creature. That’s a jellyfish because it has its hoove thing. and as you go further in the game there’s more of those things but bigger. maybe once they get big enough they become the enemy jellyfish
my assumption is that a parasitic jelly fish or a fungus that evolved similar traits lived in a large pond. when the flood happened it made it more room for it to grow. taking over the frogs body and probably using the frogs lungs to breathe oxygen and releasing the air. i assume the moose like jelly fish are collecting air from the surface to give to the bigger one
I think something somewhere (maybe dev comment?) said that the jellyfish progenitor (the final boss) and the other jellyfish are actually aliens, air kills them (hence why air bubbles make the jellies explode), so they fuse Earth creatures onto themselves to safely breathe out air, but that also makes them susceptible to drowning
@metal_pipe9764 I saw a theory that the jellies are aliens that can inhale oxygen from the water but not exhale it (hence why air blows them up) so they use the frogs to breathe

Green ones most likely inject some kind of drug into our froggie.
Cosmic bliss
You mean moose? Not deer?
This really comforts my terrified soul... I'm not afraid of anything usually, but this damn game gives me nightmares

@@PotatoFaerie if it was a real event I would just go to live on the moon, ain’t no way I’m dealing with scary sea parasites that use me as a head,
yall talking about them like they are aliens
they are just jellyfish that exist (well they dont fucking parasitise frogs thats for sure)
The dev did horrifyingly with the remaster
We need to develop Iron Man level suits for the ocean before we make them for space.
Just in case

Yeah the cow looking creatures was in fact...yeah.
Tbh I thought I'd never come across this game again, good to see it got remastered

Correct, that is what a baby jellyfish looks like during an early stage
Just like IRL jellyfish, they’re called “polyps” which are similar to their coral cousins until a certain point when the actual jellyfish is released.
Comforting.
i really couldnt find anything whatsoever honestly, does anyone know if theres any lore, if its supposed to mean anything perchance?
the best i got is
underwater forest?
jellyfish sorta things take over drowned frogs...?
save friends or join the -hive- pond mind

And the reason why the forest is underwater is because whatever asteroid or spaceship or whatever brought the jellies here somehow caused the flood
@@fleetadmiralauto6506 thats a quite nice theory
Is it possible to save the frogs on the jellies?
Unfortunately I don't think so, they're already being used as lungs
@@JaggedStarzLuv wait but jellyfish can already breathe unerwater

@@JaggedStarzLuv then they would've went extinct ages ago.
@metal_pipe9764 they must've come recently, the hivemind most likely constantly produces them
A Moose
Not really
