Walk with WASD / arrows, hold Shift to run. Approach a device and press Space. On phones and tablets, hold the direction buttons below the scene and tap Interact.
The water retreats. Life remains.
Real tides come from differences in gravitational pull across an object; solid bodies deform too. NASA measures these effects to study interiors. This garden, controllable sea, accelerated plant growth and lost-year story are fiction, not a model of a real moon.
