For an adventure game that nobody cares about, I didn't expect much, but I really enjoyed my playthrough. I felt the game was very playful with the puzzle mechanics, and the ocean-themed jokes as well. Also, the game is underwater, so the character has free vertical movement which contributed to creative level design. Current early access has 3 areas with about 10 rooms in total, so it's not very long (roughly 90 minutes of content with no hints), which according to the store page is half of the game. One thing that really impressed me is that all of the inventory items are equipped on the character instead of a traditional panel, so whenever you have to use the item you just drag it directly from what is on you; I must say I played adventure games all my life, never seen anything like it, that is very unusual. Something I feel is not very appreciated in good puzzle games is the way the game gives you feedback, and I always felt like this game was giving me just enough information s...

About This Game
Meduziak is a laid back point-and-click adventure game inspired by the classics of the genre, especially the Gobliiins series. The game is mainly focused on solving puzzles to overcome the obstacles and weird problems of this deep sea realm. The game features:
- "no dead ends" puzzle design: if you break an egg that you need, there will be a way to get another egg,
- unusual inventory system: Meduziak puts on himself all the items he collects,
- hand drawn animation: a major part of animations is made the classical way, with each frame being drawn individually,
- original music and sound: all of the sound samples are “mouth made”, we do not use any objects to record them,
- fun minigames: sometimes necessary for game progression, sometimes not at all,
- no language: since the creatures of the sea do not speak any human language, all of the dialogue is symbolic,
- friendly and cheerful atmosphere: kids like it very much, although, they will probably need help with the puzzles – we recommend playing the game together.
If you would like to immerse yourself in this epic journey, feel free to download the free demo of the game (about 60 min of gameplay).
If you like the game and would like to help us in the development process, you can buy the early access version of Meduziak. Early access is offered at a correspondingly lower price. It automatically unlocks the next episodes of the game, and guarantees free access to all subsequent updates, up to the games completion. The price of early access will increase as the game is developed, until the target price is reached. Saves from the free demo will work in the early access version.

So far I played a demo version that You could download from dev's site. Had a blast. The game has an awesome and unique artstyle (both animation and drawings) and character. The game is simple (in terms of mechanics) and universal, it will interest both adults and children. When I was playing it (and I am slow when it comes to adventure games) my 9 years old daughter was looking at the monitor from behind my shoulder and was giving me some pointers :) The story is also very endearing :) I can't wait to see what awaits the brave dad jelly... Meduziak in the next chapters that were not in the demo
The sounds are annoying and repetitve, the solutions to the problems are extremely unclear due to the complete lack of dialogue, some images are completely incomprehensible and everything felt more solved through pure trial and error than really solving it with more smart. The inventory system is extremely interesting at least. I don´t like ripping a game to shreds that has genuine investment from the creator, but it was not a pleasent experience.
Funny and absurd game, perfect for playing with my kid!
