"I wan't to live,
and not to die."
~ Sumiii
Sumiii is a punishing swimming game, a homage to Jeremy Winterrowd's 2003 game 'The Maze', better and more fondly remembered as the 'Scary Maze Game'. Sumiii is also a remake of my first attempt at developing a game 'Crazy Aems game'. You can't move diagonal, and everything kills you. New and strange creatures await the squid capable of advancing to the next level.

Good

At some point I may begin work towards radically changing this game into another genre, but before that happens I'm going to add:
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have feedback, questions, or problems with the game. I’ll do my best to get back to you as quickly as possible and provide support if needed. Also let me know if you enjoyed the game, because that makes my day and motivates my future projects!

A Note From the Developer:
If you’re thinking about buying Sumiii please keep in mind that while I am super passionate about this game, I am a solo developer. This is not a triple A experience with hundreds of hours of content. Instead, I offer a small, satisfying albeit rage inducing experience inspired by my favorite games. Get it for less than a burger meal from your favorite fast food joint.Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have feedback, questions, or problems with the game. I’ll do my best to get back to you as quickly as possible and provide support if needed. Also let me know if you enjoyed the game, because that makes my day and motivates my future projects!
