Nice mood and teaching us to be a better human than to kill stuff. I didn't get the theme-implentation though.
The music is a little too loud and gets kind of annoying after a while. But, nice game. I think I got everything.
Nice graphics and music, I like the concept of the game
I like it, but it could have been better if you made it so the player could drop the item they were holding. Over all though it was a pretty good game!
Things I liked: - The music sets the tone really well for this been an ambient game - simple game loop - fluid movement of the player and the simple controls
Suggestions: - Randomize the item spawn locations for replayability; ideally have more spawn locations than items so that the spawn locations aren't always the same. - A 'fastest time' scoreboard for players to compete with their best times - ad pick-up and turn-in sounds; ideally in the same key as the droning background music; this let's the player contribute to the background music - An end-game condition that gives feedback to the player that they have gotten all of the items; you can implement it in such a way that it's not disruptive to the flow of the game for players who like to continue diving after completion.
Bugs: I found that it's possible to try and swim to shore on the left side and get stuck near the beach, forcing you to refresh the browser and start over.
Love it. Would be a little better if the camera led the diver instead of lagging it.
Also "Help the diver to make the boaters happy" confused me at first, I read it as "(Help the diver) to make the boaters happy" and I thought I was going to bring items down to the diver. But it's actually "Help (the diver to make the boaters happy)" The "to" throws it off. Just "Help the diver make the boaters happy" is what I'd say.
But yeah, loved the audio and graphics.
Nice! I really liked the music, and the peaceful tone that it set. I wish that I didn't have to keep the mouse button held down, and that the camera moved to show where I was going rather than where I was. I suppose if you wanted more of a challenge you could give the diver an air meter.
Hi, your HTML5 build seems broken. I wasn't able to load it in Opera GX. I did not rate.
Nice relaxing kind of game. Movement is very fluid and smooth - well done.
Liked the ambient music. Very peaceful and relaxing game to play. I would have liked to be able to drop stuff. The diving felt pretty nice. Good Entry. :)
Cute game, i liked the little "dolphin jumps" you can do outside the water :)
This was relaxing :relaxed:
One small suggestion would be to indicate to the player early on that they can not have more than one item picked up at a time. I ended up spending some time diving deeper to obtain another item only to find that I couldn't. Maybe having two items at the start side by side might help indicate this.
Now THIS is the type of game that gets good points on Mood (and as such, also audio!).
I loved the relaxing ambience and the mechanic was simple and enjoyable.
I could think of a few improvements (Like having the flashlight flip directions, and maybe even a deeper "have to scan with flashlight" mechanic), but all in all this was fun and comforting for one person in 48 hours.
Great job!
Great music, it creates a nice mood. The gameplay is simple and entertaining.
Great game, good job.
Very nice mood created by the little details such as the flashlight and bubbles. The music sets a good mood too but gets a little repetitive after some time. I appreciate the simple, mouse-only controls and think others would enjoy this relaxing game. I think it could be more enjoyable if the diver could sprint or swim faster for a short amount of time but overall nice game.
