Here to remind us that the PS1 was capable of colours beside “existential grey” isWater Level/b.l.u.e.

EXPLORATION, from New York City-based game designerHatim Benhsain.

It’s a free downloadable experiment inspired by b.l.u.e.

A PS1 swimming game shown on an angled screen within a screen of an experimental artgame from 2024, made up of weird blue shapes

In Benhsain’s rework, b.l.u.e.

has become a game about games swimming through each other.

It reminds me a little of synthesising the geography inMu Cartographer.

Benhsain includes a link to aresource pagewith some tools and examples of plunderludic games.

I’m looking forward to giving it a proper read at some point.

If you have any favourite water levels to share, old or new, sing out.
