Nice game! I like the idea of being under the sea, and that you can get lost if you go too far from the dome =) The change of sound it's a bit annoying tho, cause you have to enter and exit a lot. Also, i would have put some extra things a bit further from the dome, so you have a reason to explore a little more.

Really like the art and the music ! Great tutorial it took me 2 tries to build the submarine, how do you realize it (what framework / tools did you use ) ?

This game have a lot of potential (maybe add some machine to speed up the hero / to regenerate the bubble / to earn more from garbage), but he lacks some decision for the players ; he has to get the closest garbage to base over and over without taking global decision about how to spend it. However i had fun completing the game :smile:

It seems there is a scaling bug for the submarine picture : it didn't cover the whole screen (2/3 maybe, and not centered)

I played it for a good few "strong currents" - very enjoyable and relaxing. I think the "inside" music doesn't match the aesthetic as well as the "outside" music. Would be great to see this game expanded!

Even if I sometimes walked straight to the edge of the scene without coming across parts, I managed to complete the game. It was a good experience and it was very satisfying to reach the bubble right in time before the current set in. Your music was nice, the bubble theme was joyful and peaceful and the water theme calm and vast. Sweet pixel art!

Great mood! Your pixel art is very beautiful and with this music I could explore, and explore, explore...

Well done, mate!

Cheers!

Really great game, It came down to the wire for me so I thought I wasn't going to make it, I didn't realize you had to have all 12 inside the bubble to win hahaha I thought when I produced the last one it would work! but I beat it!!

Overall I enjoyed it!

I played the flash version. Interesting game -- had some difficulty with object gathering at first because I think I picked up trash as my first items. The health bar also wouldn't re-fill 100% after I re-entered the dome. Overall this is a very soothing game and it's fun to gather the objects.

Great game! Interesting concept of McGyvering yourself out from the tricky situation :) Really liked the audio changing when you are underwater.

Really nice artwork and soothing audio. Well done!

Cool ! Very cute and neat graphics :) Amazing musics, very relaxing and they fit the atmosphere very well ! My main complaint would be that the gameplay is very slow and repetitive, I stopped before the end. Also it took me some time to understand that some objects could be thrown in the machine and others not. But overall this is very well done !

Great take on the theme. I love the graphics and the music. I hope you consider expanding the game.

It always feels so exciting to see a different and creative idea in a game jam! I love how you made every detail in this game, the little bubble, the different bgm and moving speed when moving in or out of the bubble. Pretty awesome!

Well done :D

Really neat game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 38 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnxqXCwu79k
