Nice and chill game with relaxing music!
Good and simple good job
I think game fits the theme nicely. Very good game even though it was your first jam.
The new thing that I say and really liked was how you allowed the player to see the colliders beforehand. Thats the thing I would adopt too.
There are quite a few things I will say could be improved. >There is no restart button, when player dies, we just have to refresh the page. >There is no such thing in the world apart from the fishes that could tell us about how fast are we going down. A UI thing that could describe our depth would be good. Not a necessary thing but it will help to get an idea where the player is heading in water in case there are no fish nearby.
Good Game and can be extended in future.
Your game is similar to mine. However I did not find restart button.
Cool game, well done! :D I like the different fish/sea creatures. Also, the main menu background effect is great, I wish you'd use it in the game too. The game is fun and it fits the theme well, well done!
There is no restart button, instead I had like a 3 second delay after you died so you can see ur score vs highscore, then boots you back to the main menu @xpycm @devga-me
@ziggykac I was trying to figure it out, but the background is basically copy and pasted as you get further down, There was a line between the 2 backgrounds water, was able to get it smooth with no transition. When i end up releasing for mobile, I'm going to try to make it work, I really liked the main menu too.
@devga-me I love games that tell their inner workings, but don't ruin the fun. I'm a numbers guy in games, love seeing them show up, know my DPS, stuff like that.
Cool game, nice job! At first i wondered what the collider button was but it was a cool idea to show the colliders, also i like that artstyle and music are matching very good, although i missed the restart button at the end
Clear graphics and easy to grasp mechanics. Would have liked some motivation to be somewhere else than the middle as the edges always felt like a risk without a reward. Still, well done!
Charming game! I like the music and it's cool you had time to create multiple animated characters. The little fish character is cute. My score was 21.
Nice entry. The music fits really well. Gameplay feels very natural. I think a restart button would be helpful just because it's not clear if you can keep playing. The game is tricky enough at first that you probably need a try or two to get the hang of it.
The mechanics were easy to understand, but I thought the graphics were a bit underwhelming. I think a restart button would be a good addition. Overall this was a good entry
@frokes I only got as far as thinking flappy bird but water. Tried eith 2D colliders and it just didnt work, wasted a lot of time on it, switched to 3d colliders and it worked fine. Thank you.
@ian-kettlewell the little fish was the easiest to make too. I think it's the only one with a good animation. I'm not good at art, so I just winged it.
