The atmosphere of this game is great. would have loved to see what that monster in the depths looks like but I couldn't find it :P

Pretty awesome feeling game, on point with the lighting/depth effect, crafting and gathering was natural. Awesome work!

I heard something in the depths.. Not going back down there! Great game and music. What is down there?

I love the atmosphere in this, and swimming around was fun! I was very spooked by the noise in the depths though :D Also I swam very far to the left at the bottom and when I swam back up I was able to swim into the sky, but that just seems like an added bonus to me :D

@anticdope Happy you liked it, it's there, somewhere, always watching, always waiting.

@predominant Happy you enjoyed it, thanks!

@snip-man We don't even know what's down there.

@gamesplusjames Only the true adventurers achieve sky-swimming. Thanks for playing!

Nice jam! Very cute graphics and animations, and music is great!

The visibility mechanic is cool. Sound is great. Fun game.

I wanted to find the monster!!!

Could only craft one thing, maybe there is a bug somewhere? Anyway, the mood is great, audio, cute animations. And the lighting, just what we wanted to do but didn't have time to implement in our own entry. 👍

So I was kind of disapointed when I wasn't able to go below 99m, But then, I discoverd that you could go higher and higher :D craked me up Besides that, the game has a nice mood and a nice level of finish on some things, but there are no ressources at the begenning 🤔

@doctortm Thanks man! Happy you enjoyed the game!

@xeke-death Thanks dude, I'm happy with the visibility mechanic as well.

@josephdevelops He's always watching and won't swim above 50m.

@tangiblegames All I had time for was 1 craftable object. In that way i guess it's more of a prototype. Lighting was super simple actually, smoke and mirrors.

@tomtomgome Another sky-swimmer, rejoice!

@cinderblock ;)

I can click on the 1 craftable object and it generates many times.

Anyway, great atmosphere and feel. I dived right away to the bottom and only got back up to find collectables.

The fishes that swim away only if you get too close is a nice touch!

Really enjoyed polaying this, very moody and chill! sky swimming and sky harvesting is fun as well XD:)

Had some trouble on my end getting this to run but great job guys

This looks. feels and sounds great. The music and definitely the growl gave it a nice eerie feel. The gameplay however was not so exciting for me. It took me a long time to find stuff and it seemed I could only craft more of these ships you have in the beginning. Overall I think it is a nice entry but it needs some more gameplay to really be fun.

@g12345 Yeah, we forgot to re-check inventory for required mats after purchase, oops! Thanks for playing! We spent probably too much time on the fish system.

@holtzzy223 Ah, another sky-swimmer in our midst, thanks fopr playing!

@vixenmink Oh no! Sorry to hear that man! Hope you figured it out somehow, which platform were you playing it on?

@shakedimus Yeah its very much a prototype that ebbs on the vibes of subnautica and was definitely overscoped. Thanks for playing!
