Really cool game with really funny and fitting sound affects! The graphics are fit perfectly to the theme and the mood is really nice. The only feedback I would have is that the submarine at the beginning can not be seen and hides behind the boat, apart from that really great game and well done!
Loved the pixel art and game design! The pickup interaction with that small hitbox at the bottom of the ship felt a bit restrictive but added some challenge to the gameplay. Keep it up, it was an awesome entry!
When you die you have to go over the whole name filling and intro scene :neutral_face:
I love the graphic style and the general atmosphere that emerges from this game!
it would have been very practical the option to pass the dialogue with each death. Or just start again directly in the submarine after the first death.
the fact that you have to put the stick down to go up is a little hard on my brain at first but it's something that i can works
for some reason it won't let me input my name on the first screen--what might I be doing wrong?
The voice acting :laughing: A strong contender for the humor category I bet!
@breadstick It doesn't work automatically unfortunately. It should work as long as you click it with the mouse and then type something. Please get back to us if it still doesn't work :)
I tried to get further into the game, but after dying or restarting, it takes a while to get back to the gameplay. (~50 clicks to skip dialogue) Still, nice job on the writing, art, and gameplay!
Pretty cool game with a lot of potential! Reminds me of that old flash game Motherload. Like others said, it'd be nice to restart, also I didn't get that you could harvest seaweed and didn't realize how much damage I had taken from being so deep.
Very noice! Satisfying and addicting, and the old man noises were 10/10. Rly like the pixel art too!
Took me a second to realize that wasn't just pretty background but actually collectibles.
I had a lot of troubles with the controls. It turns out if you rush through the dialogue it'll open the shop and you'll be stuck on that screen. After restarting a few times i managed to get to the ship portion. I died shortly after and i couldnt restart the game by pressing R. It looks like im the only unlucky one, because everyone else in the comments was able to play :(
Wonderful game! I found it a bit funny how the submarine would tilt when you run into a sloped surfact and there being no way to right it again. I feel like there's an idea there with being able to move around to get your gathering claw into places.
Banger art style, I gave it five stars:) There are a lot of mechanics here, well done! I'm impressed you fit so much in with the short dev time
Amazing art. The deep-sea treasures pay much more, so the gameplay has a good "depth" if you excuse the pun :)
