Balance: Umbilical Wake is a surreal physics-based game about the human need to control life, birth, and what comes after. Step into a fisherman's recurring nightmare of living on a levitating platform, while his umbilical cord feeds into a large mechanical box. As the fisherman, maintain the balance that breaks with every move. Learn the world's rules, solve its puzzles, catch a fish, and inject it into your navel to wake up. Yet the nightmare keeps returning, until your child's birth begins to reshape it.
