CotSeed

CotSeed is a small, independently developed video game. It was created by a solo developer and released in 2023. The game is a narrative-driven adventure with puzzle elements, set in a surreal and dreamlike world. Players control a character who navigates through various environments, interacting with objects and solving puzzles to progress through the story.

The core gameplay loop involves exploration and environmental puzzle solving. These puzzles often require players to observe their surroundings carefully and manipulate objects to uncover new paths or trigger events. The narrative of CotSeed unfolds through visual storytelling, ambient details, and occasional text fragments found within the game world. There is no traditional combat or complex inventory system.

The game's soundtrack also contributes to its atmospheric feel, with ambient music and sound design playing a significant role in immersing the player. Reviews generally praise its artistic direction and contemplative atmosphere, though some find its pacing slow or its puzzles too abstract. The game is available on PC through digital distribution platforms.
