These Venusian jellyfish are different from ours: the extreme pressure of the atmosphere makes their environment both like being under water, and like floating in the sky like a lost birthday balloon. In our game, you take on the life of a strange species of jellyfish who live on Venus. In a few months, when you’re surrounded by the busy, vibrant metropolis of Buenos Aires, you will think back to this time on the reef and decide this is what your game should be about.ĭeep Under the Sky is a video game by Rich Edwards and myself. You bask in the warmth of the water, focusing on now, on the life all around you, and the shoo-shaa of your breathing through the snorkel. Not the game you’re writing, or the Kickstarter your wife is about to start, or how you have to make another long boat trip into town because you’re running low on dried beans. For now the water is warm, the jellyfish is new and beautiful and you aren’t thinking anything. Soon, dolphins will leap by the reef and somersault for joy, an octopus will come hunting in the coral and you’ll eat raw oysters you collected off the stilts of the mangroves. The jellyfish has a fat, translucent, mane and long tendrils that trail off into invisibility. Right now you’re floating, face down, in the ocean that surrounds the island. The only sounds you hear all day are the chatter of birds and the few people living in your little corner of San Cristobal, a small island off the east coast of Panama. You haven’t been in a car or a city with a population over a few thousand people in as long.
You landed in Panama city two months ago.
