How does your game interpret and use the Theme / Halloween?
purr or treat takes the theme somewhere gentle. when the coral clock strikes midnight the reef wakes into an underwater halloween. mochi the sea kitten follows lanterns and a moonlit scent through trick or treating and bubble magic. the strange visitor waiting in the pumpkin wreck is a shy ghost who needs a friend.

the midnight tide brings secrets and little wonders that are absent by day. helping the neighbours and making a costume for the ghost leads everyone towards the midnight parade. what only comes out at night is not just a ghost. it is a whole reef finding a reason to celebrate together.

Anything else you'd like to share about your game or development process?
i wanted a halloween adventure where being curious matters more than being brave. mochi can help with small problems and make an unlikely friend. bubble magic gives the kitten a playful way to touch the world. the parade brings those little encounters back together.

there are moon candies and stickers to find if you want to wander. if you lose the trail press q for a little guidance or open the reef journal with tab. fullscreen with a keyboard and mouse is recommended.
