Ouroboros, the infinite circle of life. The consumer becomes the consumed.

[@mrnohax5436]

But the ending is confusing ?

[@kaulis6524]

And finnaly you get crushed

[@justanotherinquisitor7962]

The Ouroboros wasn't a bad guy per se, as it was trying to end the cycle by consuming everything for itself. But in it's haste to do so, it did not realise that it, itself, was being consumed by everything around as well. Therefore unknowingly continuing the cycle it sought to end.

I love how this game doesn't scream "HAH, you're the murderous human that eats!" in the end, it just shows the food chain and how were at the end of it, organisms need to consume other organisms to survive.

[@andrada9506]

And organisms that were not of or from this world

[@solarprogeny6736]

That is really not true though. It seems clear you were supposed to evolve past the stage of a simple embryo, and actually have a life in the ocean. The game's twist is supposed to make you feel like you have been robbed of that experience, of actually becoming a creature like Orro. Your life is squashed just before it really starts. It's not as unaffected as you portray it to be.

[@ped3752]

@@solarprogeny6736 Doesn't that also counts for the lives you robbed in the ocean? Their lives were also stopped before they started so what is the difference of theirs from mine? a good point to make is that in the end we are consuming others and that's not right or wrong, it's just a necessity of our biology for a better outcome.

[@solarprogeny6736]

@@ped3752 It shocks me you see no difference between a food processing factory and the daily fight for survival

[@ped3752]

@@solarprogeny6736 In case it was hard to understand, what i meant is that organisms which are dependant on consuming other ones, there is indeed the fact that humans process and produce the food using other animals but it does not ultimately changes anything other than the amount or how it's shared, you can quote out the argument of producing too much but that is other subject, a more political one which is much more wide.

It's dark in its own way. As you grow, you grow on the food chain. In the end, your attempts will be fruitless because it seems that humans will always be on top. With their expansion and technology, it seems they can not be stopped.

[@MrNoSIeep]

Yeah, your little dude definitely bit the dust at the end of the game. Notice how at the bottom of the screen each evolution showed what you would be next? Welp, once its achieved the second to last stage, there’s nothing but a red cut mass of presumably flesh there. So yeah, you got swallowed by the sea. I dunno what on earth that creature/machine was that swallowed you (it might have been a living creature, you can look in the background of the final cutscene and find organic material spitting out food onto the conveyor belts), and I don’t think that I want to either. All in all, the game was pretty well made, and had good attention to detail, I liked it.

[@pvtTalo24]

I don't think it was a creature, if you look closely the things spitting out "food" on the conveyor belt look like the other end of what swallowed you. Right before eating the last fetus thing if you look at the walls you'll notice you're going inside something, which I think might be some sort of tube sucking in stuff from the sea

[@MrNoSIeep]

_I almost wondered if you would turn human somehow_ You kinda got a little embryo-looking, but you were still born a blob "borrus". That was a nifry ending - no matter how King of the Sea anything was, there was something waiting to eat you. I enjoyed this - even the names of the organisms were cool. This developer is extremely creative & happy to see another game from them!

[@UniformFaux]

Wonder why the creatures look humanoid, would there be more going on in the sea, causing mutations? Thanks for playing these games Manly, they are very cool and unique

[@UniformFaux]

@Tarantula On Your Screen They do have human-like faces tho

[@picklewart5382]

Probably to make us relate to the creatures on some level to feel pity for them while also doubling as a horror element.

[@bropil7545]

I toigh they were aliens. Maybe humans are starting to colonize and get food. The fish evolved to resemble human faces so they can scare other creatures.

[@lilbank2521]

You do realize from an evolutionary stand point humans are animals and we originate form the sea. When the earth could not sustain life cause of the deadly uv sun rays, all life was in the ocean. So to answer you question, THEY dont look humanoid WE do.

[@crimsoncapricorn188]

The Orro and the Borrus. Ouroboros, the serpent that eats it's own tail, signifying a never-ending loop. I get how the Orro plays it's part, it litterally eats itself, but how does the Borrus fit into this? Their whole interaction is that the Orro tries to eat the Borrus, but the Borrus doesn't seem to loop back into the Orro other than that they are similar creatures in their youth.

[@ManlyBadassHero]

It ate the baby of the Orro and assumingly would've grown into something large like it as they had similar human face like appearances. Creating a circular predatory loop where both are top predators that eat the other.
