The idea of not killing the monsters too fast really made the game fun to play and strategic. Nice work！
This is a unique take on a classic style of game. I like the strategy of trying to eliminate the diver but not too fast, it makes you think! Very fun and well made. I love the music too!
fun game!
I have reached level 32 :)
Good concept and great execution!
Game was fun, impressivly polished and i think a very fun spin on the "survivor" type of game. Good job! :)
The gameplay isn't so obvious, so a tutorial/longer explanation of the mechanics would be very helpful.
Nonetheless once I started to figure out how things worked :sweat_smile: , it felt pretty fresh and fun to play :)
The art is super sophisticated, and the game design is on point – you've masterfully smashed two game genres together like a boss. This game is surprisingly addictive and a total blast, I'm totally digging it.
Very nice game with a lot of potential. The level of polish you were able to achieve is impressive
Art are really nice and polished, Music goes well along the game.
A bit hard to understand at first but we then see the reversed "survivor" thematic :smile: and it all make sense after that.
I managed to reach level 17 after some tries and reaching the end of the timer. It was hard to adjust how much units to send to feed the diver without killing him. :sweat_smile:
Anyway, good job on this entry ! :tada:
Amazing art! It was a bit tricky to understand at first what I was doing so maybe a small tutorial would be nice. But other than that very addicting! :)
I really like the art of this game. The gameplay is a nice twist on the survivor games. I can't post the level because i somehow managed to get the price of the middle enemy to 2 and spawned so many that the game froze. I really enjoyed this game.
very nice arts and concept! feels polished
Nice game. This has a nice twist to the survivor games. Digging the graphical style and the music. It would be cool to see what skills the diver unlocks on level up, before witnessing them in action. Also, I think there are two audio bugs. First one at the main menu where you can hear the swing sounds and second one with overlapping tracks when the game ends.
Nice work, team!
I lover the underwater theme of the game and the art! Took me one round to understand the idea, but then I realized very quickly what the different symbols mean. I just don't fully understand the mana. I never really used it up, since I was always limited by the divers health. But Maybe I also just had a bad strategy ;) Managed to get to level 17 max, when I ran out of time.
What a unique idea that plays well into the theme! It's super clever and inventive. I don't have much to criticize or add, except that an in game explanation of how it works or some kind of tutorial would've been nice to have since I was super confused the first couple of times my diver dropped dead for seemingly no reason while I was trying to figure out how do I move him. Awesome job!
Engaging game with some great art! It takes a bit to figure out how things work, but the icons are very well-made, communicate their message well, so you can get the hang of it. At first, I thought there would be some tooltips that would explain what each icon means on mouse-over. But after a while I discovered that it's not really necessary :smile:
Music is very well-chosen and enhances the ominous under-the-sea atmosphere you created. Unique concept, consistent gameplay and great visuals make for a very good jam game. Congratulations on a great entry - 5 :star: all around!

Glad to see one more game on unreal engine! I like the idea that you chose what to summon and setting. Looks fresh for survivor. Great work!
I played the jam version - I'm grateful about the note about unlimited fps so I went to the driver to limit it myself. Only managed to reach level 15 so far. It feels like the game concept was made in advance to fit multiple jam themes(we did this too). Great game, very well done.
We discussed the concept after the jam started, basically Saturday morning. We arrived at this conclusion because we wanted the "summoning" part of the game to be the core mechanic (and some members of the team like Survivors game :smile:)
Top marks! Great idea, great execution!
I'm not very good at it, but that's fine haha.
