About the Game

You’ve fallen to the other side of the puddle… Who’s waiting for you there?

In this short but intense story, you’ll face the most unexpected betrayal—your own shoes turning against you. You’re surrounded by shadows of the past, the mysteries of this strange world, and perhaps your own repressed memories.

— Hey, I'm Righty, and I mean no harm.

What happened here? Who are you, really? To uncover the truth, you’ll have to piece it together—literally. But be careful: reality may be far more terrifying than it seems…

You only have one life—pay close attention to details, listen to the sounds around you, and don’t even trust your own eyes.

The game blends a fast-paced narrative, unusual minigames, and a striking visual style, while the eerie soundtrack fully immerses you in the unsettling world of the wet puddle. Do you dare to look beneath its surface?
