Descent

Amidst the brightest clouds on Venus, you have been invoked.
(An IF about the ecological impact of space dragon-whales)

Created for the 2019 #subQjam, on the theme of "Environment." 

Content notes: 

• I don't think this counts as gore; it's not intended to gross anyone out or push any boundaries, and I tried not to dwell too much on any of the squishier internal anatomies...but it is still fundamentally a story about what happens after megafauna die, including postmortem damage and decay. Words like "medullary cavity" are used. 
• Speaking of which, yes, this is sort of an animal death story. Or rather, an animal post-death story. It's very abstract and no animals have individual personalities to get attached to, but it is about the remains of a fictional animal, and it is possible for you to indirectly cause other fictional animal deaths in the story (though you're unlikely to do so by accident).
• A semi-abstract vector illustration of a made-up animal skeleton (with very questionable anatomical coherence) is visible through most of the game.

I'm happy to address any specific questions you might want answered before trying it out.
