how the game fits the uplifting theme?
I decided to create a small game inspired by *Tiny Glade* and *Flower*. *Tiny Glade* evokes a sense of contemplation—much like lying under a tree on a hot summer day, watching the clouds and seeing shapes in them—allowing players to engage in creation and quiet observation. Meanwhile, *Flower* taught me that feeling a sense of lightness in one's soul doesn't require a "challenge"; you can simply immerse yourself in the process and enjoy the experience.

how the game fits the ocean theme?
I chose a lighthouse as the central object and a symbol of hope because, in my view, it serves as a perfect metaphor for finding a ray of hope in the darkness (or amidst the vast ocean).

please If you used any per-made assets or AI generated content credit them
I created all the 3D assets and iconography myself (with the exception of the procedural water and terrain generation). AI was used exclusively to write the game logic. The concept and the entire development process were carried out by a human from start to finish. I sourced some icons from Google's free library and refined them in Figma; the sound assets are also free to use. Here are the links to the third-party assets I utilized: https://fonts.google.com/icons https://freesound.org/people/elliottliu/sounds/827638/ https://freesound.org/people/klankbeeld/sounds/803498/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_SJmiVLM_g&list=PLfP6i5T0-DkIviWiMcjJkt1urg8ky-xrZ&index=5
