the thin edge
The player is a seasoned swimmer in the middle of an empty ocean where there's only visibility to one side and they're not sure which direction leads back home but need to keep going without any help available until another option presents itself.Title, setting description summary for the game "The Thin Edge" that follows two experienced swimmers who have navigated through a vast emptiness in order of swimming strokes alone with no external guidance or aid except an optional timer. The player must complete swims stroke by stroke to reach their destination while communicating about emotions and existentialism during this solitary journey on the ocean's edge where they are both lost together but trying not be seen as such by staying away from other swimmers who will judge them in different ways for being separated, however when one of you is gone or doesn't respond quickly enough then there might come a time to call eachother. The game incorporates elements drawn from Mona Mansour's We Swim
