I really enjoyed playing this, the vibe is kinda spooky and makes me a little thalassophobic! Exploring this weird place, trying to figure out where you can fish and grabbing some mysterious orb was really interesting! I love the squiggly appearance that everything has, Great game!
Привет, согласен с комментом сверху, очень классно передал чувство талассофобии, ты очень хорошо расставил островки для прыжков, интуитивно понятно куда двигаться, но я, конечно в первый раз заблудился и цветовая палитра составлена красиво

Great vibe and spot-on theme. Visuals and audio are top-notch. I especially liked the tense sound design when you're underwater — really pulls you in. The core gameplay idea works well, and there's definitely room to expand on the puzzle elements. Awesome job!
Such an awesome cover that stands out from the rest - that's why I clicked to play! Cool game, good luck ranking high!

Great take on the mood and the atmosphere, I somehow immediately knew it had horror elements but it still surprised me when the *thing* happened :) My only feedback is that walking doesn't really seem to benefit us in any way, so auto-sprinting would be nice!
Nice Work! Bit confusing at first but once I got the hang of it, it was a great exploration game! I played your game on stream today (ManishaGameDev), just dropping a comment + rating now :)

I totally missed that I needed to activate the towers after getting the lights on top of them lol. But once I got that down it was fun platforming around the different letters and solving their little riddles. The audio was really on point here, the distortion of the music was killer and the whole surreal nature of the graphics really brought it all together. Wish something more involved happened at the end, but I also appreciate the approach you took too. Great work!

Easy 5 Star for everything from me.
Completely loved the game. Duuuude, you got to rate some games. Would be a shame if you didn't get to the 20 ratings yourself.

Really enjoyed this one! World had a nice, mysterious vibe. The letters were both interesting aesthetically while also helping organize the areas. The fishing spot searches all managed to be varied and not get repetitive, balancing navigation and puzzle solving. It was really rewarding to make a hypothesis about where the fishing spot is, cast your line, and see the orb come up. Short, interesting, and didn't overstay its welcome. Nice work!

Very good minimalism art! Great puzzles with a good balance of difficulty and interest. I liked it!)
Well polished game, I like all the little details and the good looking UI (which is usually in game jams). The gameplay is simple to understand but engaging, I liked the puzzle element.

Stunning visual with the water shader. Minimalist but very mood setting. Enjoyed playing it off stream as it took too much resources from my older hardware.
Congrats!

This is super spooky, I'm not very good with the scary water vibes haha. But the water looks really nice! Great work on that
