fully voiced narrator that guides you through the experience
traversable beach environment with full day/night cycle
many bizarre objects that appear on the beach
multiple-choice questions with branching dialogue

Check out the demo as well, it's a separate chapter that's not included in the full game!
You find yourself on a quiet tropical beach. Before you is the vast ocean, behind you—a lush forest. Guiding you under the scorching sun is a soothing but ominous voice, whose intentions you're not quite sure of yet. Is it going to help you leave the beach, or force you to wander endlessly along a serene landscape of water and sand?
Discover the secrets of the beach and bask in its beauty, inquire about the out-of-place objects you find on it, listen to the blunt, sarcastic remarks of the narrator and try to find a way out.
