A sentient lighthouse as the protagonist is such a Double Fine move—only they could make existential melancholy feel this whimsical. Really curious how the light beam mechanics will play into the puzzle-solving.

Double Fine never misses a chance to get weird in the best way—a sentient lighthouse and a seagull sidekick Sign me up for that surreal adventure. Can't wait to see how they pull off a wordless narrative with that signature charm.
