The sonar idea was suuuper interesting. I did find myself relying more on looking for the items under the water itself than using the sonar but I really loved using it and just the whole concept behind it, especially having to draw it in a line rather than say just, pressing a button and instantly getting a depth map of your surroundings. Great work!!
As mentioned before, it was more viable to just mash the search button than rely on the sonar, but something tells me that most of the developing time went to building the sonar function, because that was really cool. Really fun to try out! Who knew there was a whole bunch of Atlatises(?) hiding under the surface?
I like the general idea I tried to play as intended but then spammed search towards the end. Such a nice idea, would have been even better with a deeper/darker water.
The scanning is very impressive, especially for a game jam weekend. I was able to see the items under the water though, so the scanning wasn't strictly necessary. Regardless, great job!
Very cool implementation for a real scanner. It seems to dip the performance a lot, but that might just be because of the browser.
Great entry, it was fun to search for all the unique items in the water.
It was pretty fun to play, the very idea of searching for treasure with sonar is cool. The visual part of the game is also good )
Love the way the scanner works, could do with some polish for understandability, but its a really clever way to go about it, really nice work!
5 out of 5! Just perfect! The idea is amazing
The shader magic is awesome. The idea is fresh. Took me a bit to figure out, but it was definitely awesome tech demo.
Great idea, but i don't like that u need to wait until it finished. I'd make sonar to work by holding a button, as long as u need.
Nice game. The scanner works well and looks great.
Wonderful idea! And a fellow Bevy jammer!
I really like the sonar charting, and the controls worked smoothly!
Web build did chug quite a bit when scanning, but didn't impact the gameplay much.
What an exhilarating concept! I loved using sonar to search for underwater treasure and the boat was fun to drive too. Great job bringing this innovative idea to life.
