About Oysis
Oysis is the main enemy the player encounters in my game Break the circle when wandering through the forest. He represents the anxiety and depressive state of the protagonist. This is not only represented by its long arms that can wrap around the player like a cage, but also through its behavior: The protagonist can control the emitted light to see its next objective, but Oysis always attacks in this specific instance. This represents the dark thoughts and fears that pull you down every time there seems to be a next step. So the player has to choose: either see where to go but fight with fear, or stay in the dark, safer, but with no orientation.
