I really wanted to check it out, coz I was intrigued by the gifs, but it couldnt properly work on my laptop. Maybe try optimising it a bit?

Very creepy and disorienting. I love the harpoon mechanic and the variety of enemies was just right. Performance was a little rough on my system.
I think you did a great job with getting this scene to really feel claustrophobic and stress-inducing! Because of how tight the corridors were I was always spooked about what might be around the corner, and the collisions and programming behind the scenes worked well enough to keep me immersed. That said, I do think what would push this game to the next level is just a bit more variety in the gameplay-- once you figure out how to do each function on the submarine, there isn't much new to figure out or learn if that makes sense. Overall a good submission to the jam, keep on going!
Incredible game! I loved the way you approach the topic and it can really can cause claustrophobia! The music was perfect and the game works well :)
Reminds me of Forsaken 64! I loved it, played with headphones and it was so gross to hear the sounds. The ambient music also made the game creepy.
Really cool. Forsaken and Descent vibes. Needs performance fix for streaming. ;)
Nice atmosphere and the battles are really cool, I like the harpoon mechanic. Well done.
This is so cool. Heavy Descent vibes and nostalgia galore! The art, music, and sound design create a really creepy/weird atmosphere. Using the harpoon to rip off armored segments is a great idea, though it sometimes felt a bit clunky. I also felt a little lost at first, possibly because of how confined a space you're in. I would love to see more enemies, weapons, and powerups... I just want to play more of it, really :laughing:
I had an absolute blast! Great job with it.
Love the atmosphere and the mood you have set. Sometimes it felt bit confusing in the terms of orientation, but that might be just my personal issue... also since the game is set basically somewhere in the guts of unknown creature, who wouldn´t loose the orientation :) Overall really nice entry and ortiginal take on the theme! Great job done!
What a cool world! I included it in my compilation video series of a bunch of LDJAM games! https://youtu.be/bDsxxURqUQM
First off, let me just say that the mood was very good with the atmospheric droning music and the thick fog. The color palette worked well for what you were going for. Even though the graphics were pretty simplistic, they were pretty effective. The creatures were nice and creepy and made appropriately squishy sounds. :stuck_out_tongue:
One suggestion I may offer though: the creatures having a similar green glow to the health pickups was a little confusing as I'd often see one out of the corner of my eye and not know if it was good or bad immediately. It would probably be better to make them a different color to distinguish them.
Overall, a pretty solid game though.
nailed an interesting mood, got some very rad models and art, and the controls felt very solid. Wasn't quite sure I understood how the grappling hook should be working, but was cool nonetheless. pretty impressive how much was done here in time for the jam. I played it here on stream: https://youtu.be/exZFt8U6w5s
It's very good, could use a bit of conveyance or at least give the player some idea of what they are doing.
Very interesting concept but had some issues getting it to run
Good
