Definitely fits the theme well! The game's humor has charm, and the tentacle caught me off guard.

Cool intro with audio explanation. The audio explanation overlapps a little bit if i move to fast to the submarine :/. The speed the boat sinks is a little bit slow IMHO. Cool transition to the diving. I can't quite figure out why i won the game at the end, just because i found the bottom think? Maybe more intermediate levels would help with more obstacles etc.
The voice over is fun and fits the theme well. The gameplay is an interesting mix.
Fits the theme well! It's a shame you didn't include yourself in the humor catagory as I think you're writing was quite funny. It's a shame the dialogue triggers were overlapping a bit, which made me miss a bunch of it!
Interesting game.
Well done, the intro with the voice is nice ! The game's humor is indeed a success ! Good job
@jorim thanks for telling me. Now I also named it :D
This is what game jams are all about. Loved the voice over and the kooky direction you took the theme!
Fun little game with an actual intro, which really surprised me!
I really liked the intro, and the voicework was really fun. The hitboxes around the obstacles were a little larger than they appeared it seemed, so it was a little too easy to hit them. Good job overall.
Cool interpretation of the theme! Like others, I thought the intro is very good. Solid game, very funny, looks like you had fun making this, and I had fun playing it. :)
Nice entry! Liked the idea & narration, great effort with the voice over, too. In my opinion some part of the graphics could be improved (but some sprites were pretty neat, too). And sometimes the collisions felt a little weird, as if the collider didn't really match the sprite size. But overall, pretty cool! :D
Great job on the intro and voice over! The diving part was a bit slow and I had nothing to do besides slowly drift away from oxigen tanks (wich I thought I had to grab them at first). Nice entry!
I over enjoyed the 'DAMAGE' voice when the sub got hit. The audio overlapps a bit when I moved quickly from scene to scene and my finger hurts after playing this :'v The speed the sub sinks is frustrating but maybe this could be a default speed instead of making the player move the sub. I found the bottom then keep going into infinity xD - Great job, I can notice the work put into this.
loved the damage voice overs. Sub felt a little slow and I didn't get to use the shooting, when I shoot nothing happened. Great effort though.
Congrats on your first Ludum Dare ! You had a sense of humor when creating this that I appreciated. The diving part was definetly janky but there was some cinematic/story ambitions here that are commendable. Good job on that intro cinematic and the moment with the tentacle !
One day I'll be as brave as you and will make full voiceover for my game. LOVED IT!
Can Anyone help me how i post something on Ludum Dare ? nice Game btw
I loved how surreal and funny the game was, especially with the voice over work. The game play was lacking in challenge, and the shooting mechanics weren't used, but those could be improved. The pixel art and animations were really nice.
