About me:
I am Faris, one of the Euphoric Brothers. Addicted to creepypastas and making video games, I decided to merge both hobbies into one project, thus, Swallow The Blue was born. I have developed this game completely by myself except for some audio. Oh, and I am also a first-year university student. after releasing a small demo of my previous discontinued game, through the feedback I received, I realized that the graphics and atmosphere are what I should focus on, instead of trying to create an action fast-paced game.
