funny game bro
The music fits perfectly to the under water theme. I had some troubles with the controls when I tried to change the direction to up or down. But I mean it's under water :) - so it should be like this :D
Simple game, but it definitely captures the spooky mood of diving deep underwater. I like the vignette effect and how simple and effective it is at making you feel claustrophobic in the ocean. It took me a while to realize the number counter wasn't a depth meter, so I wasn't sure what that was. I unfortunately got pretty lost and couldn't find the plates needed to go to the lower depths.
Nice Game with a cool art style. Good job!
Nice theme and really liked the music! It got darker the deeper down I got, but picking mushrooms seems to make it lighter. I didn't quite understand what the numbers in the left corner symbolized?
Well made theme and interesting idea that could use some kind of better explanation/HUD or something I guess.
Loved the music! I was vibing the whole time, however I wasn't able to find all the plates to go deeper, I was never sure how many I had collected and felt like I was wandering around for a long time.
The soundtrack was great! Definitely enhances the feeling of getting deeper. The inconsistency of art style between the player and everything else was off-putting to me. Cool game overall; it was fun to explore and roam around the ocean.
Great music! The surface water effect was also neat, though it initially gave me the impression that something was chasing me that I needed to escape from. I found a number of mushrooms but never did find any plates. The handling of the sub was a bit bizarre; it seemed like if it had, for example, a lot of upward momentum then pressing down+left was significantly less effective at slowing it than it should have been compared to simply pressing down.
The music is such a catJAM, sadly no sound effects. The art style is very brave as it tried to combine vector art with pixel art. The start screen could use a bit of work other than having the basic UI unity elements, for example changing the font would go a long way. Is there a sound cloud where I can check out the music because that was such a good track.
Very cool game, the music is great!
