Beautiful title card and awesome team, by your guys' socials. Bummed I can't play it on my Mac!
nice game
It's super cute. And i still feel stressed when i was at the bottom. Good news, the fish is safe as i'm. Good job guys!
I absolutely adore the art style of this. I kept running into issues, one where the ladders on each far side would sometimes get me stuck in walls when I try to get off before getting all the way up, and another where if a specific task in what I assume to be the kitchen comes up I suddenly lose the ability to do *any* task. Otherwise, the art style and the audio are amazing and really get that "sinking feeling".
I like the idea and the art but it's confusing if I have done the task or not espesially the bottom right task. Also sometimes the arrow show up and once I'm on the task no UI shows up.
Beautiful graphics although a tad confusing, great atmosphere and a solid entry nonetheless!
The game seems to be a bit buggy and it's not really clear what you're supposed to do. The arrow and the ladders seem very buggy and pressing E doesn't always open up the task, I guess it could just be me. The graphics and sound are great though!
The graphic and sound design were spot on for what I imagine this game will be. Sadly, it seemed mostly unresponsive to my mashing the e button where it said "E". Also - that also might just be me - I was completely lost as to what I was supposed to to. The arrows pointed me somewhere but I couldn't seem to make out what to do in these places. Maybe this is tied to my fruitless attempts at mashing E. I sense a great game here though!
There isn't a good indication of what exactly I'm supposed to do, the arrows just seem to appear and disappear randomly. Art looks great though
Very nice visuals. Unfortunately, I also couldn't really figure out what I was supposed to do.
I got stuck a couple of times, but other than that I really enjoyed it. Loved the theme, the graphics and sound. Good effort!
Enjoyed the art style, character animation was cute :). Figured out all of the tasks (I think) except for the fridge + electricity one? No idea what I needed to do with the green lights. Also, got all the way to the bottom of the depth meter and nothing seemed to happen, unsure if intended or a bug :). Nice work either way!
Really did enjoy the art and the mood. But the overall goal of the game was kind of confusing. I would have loved if the fish was animated as well. But the art style was unique and great!
I loved the art style! The handcrafted look of the submarine and the character was really cute. It would have been great if there was one or two more mini-game-esque activities like the green buttons, but I recognize you don't always have time during a jam.
The HTML5 version is just a like to the Windows version?
I really liked the mood and the graphics in the game, but it was really hard to understand what was going on. I figured it was kind of like doing tasks as a crewmate in Among Us, but it was hard to tell if you've done the tasks successfully. I got the green switches and one red one as my first task and I was woefully confused with it. I thought that the camera was a little restrictive, I would've liked to see a little bit more beneath the player, especially since you have a lot of verticality in the game. I also found myself stuck from the ladders pretty often -- in future jams it might make more sense to just make teleporters if ladders are giving you a hard time.
After reaching bottom and hitting button
Pros:
- Cute, hand-drawn graphics! - Fish in a tank is a humorous touch - Funky animation of main character - Good soundscape for mood building
Cons:
- I'm not exactly sure what the goal is - Only 3 screens were ok to activate - VERY JANKY ladder controls: sometimes you climb, sometimes you drop, you slide on it like on ice. - Because of ladders, I got stuck in a metal wall (screenshot attached) - Some arrows indicating 'event' were broken in place - Kitchen, first aid, bombs and electric plant events - I had no clue whether I should go check the are or click some buttons. Kitchen told me to press E, so I pressed it multiple times and nothing happened - Wish there was other sounds - No HTML5 Version (only link to downloadable)
A nice try nontheless, especially graphic-wise! Keep up the good work!
