Cylne New Chapter
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=455192849
About the chapter
This chapter is inspired by the Prometheus myth (but it is not a cover of it). There is the same poetic and philosophical way as usual. The world alternates dark and light ambiances with a choice to make in it (whereas it occurred only in the chapter V "The Choice"). There is a more open world feeling filled with disorientation and the level provides some clarifications about the game.

Cylne Spring Sale
Game description :
Cylne is a first person surreal exploration game, in the form of a visual poems collection.
Choose a chapter to explore and feel unreal worlds filled with psychic/environmental enigmas and platforming. Surrounded by a dark halo, dive into ethereal ambience to find meaning...
Press :
70/100 – Kill Screen :
“THE LUCID DREAMS OF CYLNE : Cylne is a particularly difficult game to describe. [...] It renders the most basic concept of interaction unfamiliar by dropping the player in a world with its own rules, with its own sense of twisted dream-logic.[...] The game’s aesthetics make for some uniquely beautiful environments as well as some insightful moments of clarity about the nature of play."
Curator :
– Weird Games for Your Pleasure :
"A surreal exploration game, with dreamy levels and obscure meanings."
Some youtube videos :

"Some games don’t bother to pamper us, not content to trouble the usual codes of gaming, they even allow sometimes break the ultimate taboo and override the injunction of immediate pleasure."
