Heart's Depth - DEMO

THIS IS A DEMO MADE FOR THE OTOME GAME JAM (UPDATED)

When you return to your childhood vacation home to visit your grandfather, your past comes up to meet you in unexpected, aquatically terrifying ways. As protagonist, you are confronted with the reality of what it means to be thrust into the darkest depths of the sea. After seeing the treatment of mermaids above (trapped, despised, eaten), how will you navigate the seas below as a human-turned fish? Will you follow your heart and see this through? Or succumb to the deep?
