I played the POOLS game last night, took a bunch of screenshots so I decided to share a couple of them. It is really pretty! Definitely one of the neatest looking games I've played in a while; these pictures don't really do it justice how cool it actually is when you're going around the levels.
I will say though if you are into this aesthetic and want to check it out it is technically a horror game - no monsters, but there are some unnerving sounds and object/statue arrangements. Also, while they aren't classic jumpscares per se there are a couple moments closer to the end where you will turn a corner and suddenly see something real unpleasant. Otherwise, it is literally a walking simulator ~ no real story, just walk around in mazes for 6 chapters and enjoy the visuals for, hm, 2-3 hours.

@rennikun's Soultember prompt 5: Existentialism / Surrealism
POOLS is a video game that's very effective at evoking dread. You're waiting and waiting for something bad to happen, some kind of monster to be in there with you, while you walk through endless pool rooms with just you and your thoughts. And who's to say you're really alone; you're never really sure. There isn't really an experience like it, and I find it incredibly interesting that some people find the setting to be comforting. I'm a bit of both in regards to that, and I've wanted to do some kind of AU for it ever since I fell in love with the game.

fyi if you want to play "pools" bc you're like me and think horror games are cool but you're a wuss, the advertising that there are no jump scares is a lie
they're not loud, and nothing technically "jumps" at you, but they are sudden and unpleasant

after chickening out of Echostasis, I went and played Pools. it was a palate cleanser. a nice walk down some rabbit holes.
and then that's it, that's all the videos I'd had recorded. all posted now.

I normally do not play Horror games, but Pools is honestly the best take on the liminal space genre. It reminds me of a lot of dreams that I have had that bordered on being nightmares. It's the most well-done out of the games of the liminal space genre, since less is more as far as the entities are concerned. It evokes nostalgia to me, but it also makes me feel relaxed as much as it makes me feel unnerved. I recommend it.
