Made in 72 hours together with author SlackBob. More info in this blogpost (I assumed that blog post == submission).

The base seems solid. I wish you had implemented the aspect of scientific discovery, which sounds interesting.
Is there a win condition? I either run out of fuel or die to those alien things. Congratulations on finishing your first jam game :)

@timtipgames Thank you! We might expand the game and include more of the original ideas and some sound and better graphics. You cannot win the game. The idea is that you go on until the sub runs out of energy. Like the rovers on Mars and alike.

I like games based around discovery :) Too bad you weren't able to implement more of the features you had initially in mind, because i was really stoked about the few lines of concept you wrote! I really hope you enjoyed your first LD!

Nice job! I only wish I had some way to take out the enemies!

Works pretty well. Really needs something a but more exciting to discover.

I felt that the lack of audio sort of took away from the general gameplay. other than that it was nice

pretty nice entry! not much going on but its a fun short game nonetheless :)

The idea itself is good but the actual game play is a bit tough, it's not only kinda choppy (which I assume is on purpose?) but it also is somewhat confusing. It has potential however to have some tweaks and be a much more fluent game.

Thanks for all of the input!

It's logical but not very.. exciting

I enjoy these quick rogue-likes :)
