For some reason the web build doesn't work on this site, so if you want to play in your browser, follow the itch.io page

I like the PS1 graphics ! The underwater ambiance is great

flowersksc 2024-10-07 21:32

the mood really good ;)

adamlenglen 2024-10-07 21:33

really cool I couldn't play it on fullscreen but still it put me in the mood !

zebonny 2024-10-07 21:46

@adamlenglen I'm sorry, I already fixed it 😅

I like the aesthetic, its not often to see game about brutality of animal world, I like the blood particles when you pierce the fish.

The ambiance is crazy good! Actually got a little freaked out when the big guy popped up ToT

oduvan 2024-10-08 09:54

Nice approach, I like it!

anton4ik-dev 2024-10-08 13:57

Good mood but litle bit confusing for me

anaastaska 2024-10-08 14:25

Great and interesting idea! I like the game, nice job😀👍

Понравилась задумка насаживать и съедать рыб. Ощущение океана передано хорошо, но не хватает жутких звуков (Либо я до них не добрался).

Controls feel a bit sensitive but its got a really nice vibe!

david-soriano 2024-10-08 14:55

Really good vibe! Love the graphics

5/5 for mood, honestly freaked me out a bit too much to really play more of it.

oh my god

Nice game!! The sound terried me but I liked that, nice design :fish:

The old style graphics work really well here, they help add to the dark atmosphere. Gameplay was simple and a little confusing at first, but i eventually got a hang of it. I of course had to swim into the big fish.

My thalassophobia is kicking. Great game. need to know if I am getting bigger or hurting or killing other fist though.

Very cool atmosphere of fear of depth and big objects. Very original presentation of horror. I would just like to ask to make the control a little more user Friendly.

А где камчатские крабы?

Very nice graphics and atmosphere! I also liked the controls, it was fun just swimming around. Unfortunately, I couldn’t figure out how to kill other fish. I rammed them multiple times, but they just bled and nothing happened afterward. Maybe I missed something..

jeiji 2024-10-09 11:56

atmospheric and creepy, the game is very cool

firefalls 2024-10-09 15:59

The atmosphere was a stand out!

iwant-pizza 2024-10-09 21:22

I like style of graphics

jvinaysar 2024-10-10 06:49

Honestly I couldn't play this game, it scared the crap out of me, I can't stand big things coming out of the ocean, like it literally gives me nightmares. Still really cool though, good concept and the stabbing mechanics are good, once that big whale thing jumped towards me though, I alt f4ed lol. 4/5

Cool game! Feels like spore cell stage in 3D. But this game need more impact to speed up, damage, eat, etc. And sometimes did not see what next, because camera is right behind.

shirac 2024-10-10 11:40

I really like the atmosphere of the game. The soundscape is simple but does the job very well, and the artwork also creates this scary feeling. I would have liked to be able to do the whole game but as soon as I eat a fish and attack another I lose control of the camera and my fish glitches so i can't continue :(

glassar 2024-10-10 18:18

Got stuck waiting on the intro a bit too long :sweat_smile: Overall a nice little game, you got the feeling of being under water across really well.

darkwolf 2024-10-11 07:01

Its a very cool setting and atmosphere you've created here. I was definitely unnerved when I realized "that's not a rock, that's moving!", only to then realize "that's not a monster, that's a whale!". My only critiques are that I thought that first text of "..." was a loading screen for a good thirty seconds, the bubbling sounds seem a little out of place for the middle of the ocean with it sounding more like a mic held underwater than what I expect a fish would hear, and that the physics on the player fish felt off due to it overshooting then wobbling back to center. Real creatures don't tend to overshoot by much at all, so it seemed more mechanical than fish like.

Overall a really cool little experience, especially having the whale for a sense of scale!

witheredwizard 2024-10-11 22:24

Soooo scary. First time i saw that big fish and heard those sounds... Love that creepy, dark, unknown underwater atmosphere

hermeses 2024-10-14 13:17

The graphics remind me of Ps1 graphics, and that's great! Amazing atmosphere! Pretty interesting concept and well executed, well done!

sasha20 2024-10-16 18:01

The game is intellectually engaging with a visually appealing design that fits the theme. God Job!

creeper-nade 2024-10-24 15:50

evokes my Thalassophobia, the mood created is absolutely superb!
