I am still impressed by the graphics and the sound of your game. :)

You truly created an atmosphere, with both sounds and graphics.
A very impressive Ludum Dare entry.

Yes wonderful graphics!

Visually pleasing with nice mood. Direct link to web-player would be nicer than small link hunting on website :)

mrshortee 2014-04-29 13:12

Beautiful.

I love the intro of the game and its graphics. The control is difficult to dominate and the game is really hard, but it doesn't have to be bad, does it? Awesome job!

The game looks and sounds very nice. It plays alright, but I found the sub a little difficult to control.

lightsoda 2014-04-29 17:32

Graphics are top notch, and so are the sound effects, fits really well.

Quite a few times I wasn't sure why I blew up.

Also, that intro looked really professional!

Well done!

nicolashognon 2014-04-29 17:35

yes .... too inertia ... I know: (

nicolashognon 2014-04-29 17:36

yes we are missing time to add more feedback, especially when you are to closed "big monster" and you while (certainly) die.

Very nice Sound and Graphics. The gameplay is however hard to understand. Some better feedback why energy is lost would be nice.

nicolashognon 2014-04-29 19:21

thanks for the feedback. yes we know the game miss some visual feedbacks.

I don't feel like the controls responded too well for me, but God, I loved the art on this game, and I see you used some interesting programmer art too! Good job guys!

Gorgeous graphics and excellent sound design! It's hard to understand the yellow bar, though. It depletes when you use the sonar, when you get hit but also depletes over time, so that was kinda weird.

Also I think I noticed a small but that the sonar doesn't push the monsters away, rather it just makes them change direction. So if you accidently hit one that was moving away from you, it will move towards you.

nicolashognon 2014-04-30 06:21

yes you are right for the sonar :(

Lovely background art. Gameplay feels kind of odd... I didn't understand why the bar dropped so quickly sometimes, or what the bubbles were for. Also... maybe there's not enough interaction between the background and the submarine... it feels kind of disconnected. I wish the cool ancient monsters were more visible somehow; maybe they could be highlighted more clearly when the player is destroyed.

I won after a few tries. It's a little fast paced for something with such nice visuals.

mrshoestore 2014-05-01 01:32

great looking game. the submarine kinda reminded me of the mighty boosh for some reason. might just be it's animation. i like it!

jeffalisk 2014-05-02 06:09

Really nice graphics. Took a while to figure out I was meant to be collecting the yellow dots, though - mechanics weren't as clear as they could have been.

Very impressive entry overall.

Nice game!!!!

Your awesome graphics and audio creates a great atmosphere. The game is really fun to play and feels very polished. Sadly it's so short. I had to play it again after reaching the bottom of the sea. Would like to see more levels, maybe randomly generated. Definitely the best game I played so far.

nicolashognon 2014-05-02 20:25

thank you loxo ... we'll try to work on a more complet/polished version soon.

simianlogic 2014-05-11 04:05

Very impressive sound and graphics, but I found the gameplay pretty confusing. Death seemed pretty random--I guess the guys in the background kill you? Would be good to have some sort of hit feedback.

csanyk 2014-05-14 20:57

The die in 3 seconds no matter what you do game. Lol.

Good ping sound! Very authentic!

juniorus 2014-05-27 15:30

Really amazing graphics: the background art, the creatures (and Cthulhu-like monsters)... but the game is too short & the gameplay is not so great (lack of feedback especially).
