This is really cool and minimal style. Love the mechanics, and the difficulty escalation. Would love to play more levels, or even better to have a procedural level generator for this so you can play "endlessly"
Scriptorium by Halbard 2025-04-25T18:11:33Z ♥ 0
Really neat idea to have two machines that you control respectively to accomplish different goals. But it feels like they both do the same except one can actually drill. It's a cool idea, but I think it needs to be fleshed out more
Depths by robertino 2025-04-25T18:08:35Z ♥ 1
Really fun! But bullets feel like they do virtually no damage whatsoever. I understand that you can't perma-die but at the Dash checkpoint I felt like I was just shooting and respawning over and over again because the enemies do way more damage that I do. Just something to think about. Otherwise I like the art style and the mechanics
Go to sleep... by eeldam 2025-04-25T17:48:38Z ♥ 0
It's a really cool idea, however some sentences that I thought were "calming" didn't get picked up. I'm not sure if there are multiple answers or only one answer but that was a bit confusing. Otherwise it's really cool
BURIED by meylish 2025-04-09T13:04:07Z ♥ 1
Really simple but fun mechanics. Love the overall atmosphere and vibe
Depths of Field by pRoFiT 2025-04-08T15:12:18Z ♥ 1
Very hard but love the obstacles. Would like for the movement to be a bit smoother, but overall very interesting
Grapple to Glory by jddoesdev 2025-04-08T15:08:59Z ♥ 1
Love the swinging mechanics, walking is a bit slow but you get used to it. Good game!
Apprehension by GreenRadiation 2025-04-08T14:16:25Z ♥ 2
Very spooky! Good job. Love that you did a maze generator for this type of game. Really feels like you can get lost
Dig, Dug, Doug by Hybitous 2025-04-08T14:00:33Z ♥ 1
The digging mechanic is so fun and smooth. Very satisfying to control. Wish I could control the camera but overall very good
Neon Wars by StefanHolst 2025-04-08T13:15:10Z ♥ 2
Really fun game, classic tower defense that's very straightforward. Only complaint is that the controls don't feel that good. But it's satisfying to play
Sneaky Miner by Pannda 2025-04-08T13:05:29Z ♥ 1
Very cool vibe, love the overall style. Very ambitious to do procedural generation since it's hard to test. Good job!
Treasurefall by Local Minimum 2025-04-08T12:59:08Z ♥ 1
This is a really cool idea for a game in general. I could honestly see this idea being expanded into a full CRPG. Took me a second to understand the mechanics but overall really great submission!
depth of mind by Bandar 2025-04-08T05:04:53Z ♥ 0
Simple but effective. Love the minimal art style. Controls and jumping are super fun. Only issues were with collision on the environment. Good job though!
Krabby Asscape by KaueSilva 2025-04-08T04:56:55Z ♥ 3
That parallax background art is really cool! It feels like you really put a lot of work into it. Game is also really fun, and the controls are very intuitive
Excapade by Ch48 2025-04-08T04:52:07Z ♥ 4
Really fun, reminds me of some older python games I used to play that were turn based like this. Love the vibe of the art as well, especially the menus
Cat in the dark by MadelineF 2025-04-08T04:41:13Z ♥ 4
Artwork is really cute. Love when developers really lean into the theme. This is very atmospheric too. Good job
Fred's Fishing Frenzy by Phasmantic 2025-04-08T04:28:24Z ♥ 1
Reminds me of the flash games I played when I was younger, and I mean that in a good way. Interesting combo of fishing and rhythm game. Some fish feel unforgiving though, but maybe that's just a skill issue
Too Fishy by Jo Bettaque 2025-04-08T02:54:25Z ♥ 3
Art style is really interesting, love overall world, it's really atmospheric
Dataminers by bubblewandgames 2025-04-08T02:50:13Z ♥ 1
Wow, incredible! Very fun and very polished. Incredibly addictive game. The music/sound design when you're falling is incredible. Color story goes hard!
Umbrage by jnur 2025-04-08T02:37:02Z ♥ 1
You earned my second 5.0 on fun! Love the diving animation and the controls are really well done
Life After Depth by Pepperpwni 2025-04-08T02:33:57Z ♥ 3
Classic arcade style game. Good job!
Luck Runs Out by Tenzz 2025-04-08T02:26:15Z ♥ 2
I think if the walking/strolling sounds were a bit more varied this would make for a really nice art game
Downwell by drevayne 2025-04-08T02:21:33Z ♥ 0
Very nicely done. Incredibly simple graphics with a big impact. Very satisfying controls
Big Pig & Dig Gig by sami822 2025-04-08T02:16:02Z ♥ 3
Really nice! Feels like a fully fledged out world. Only complaint was my first attempt I fell down the mine shaft and got stuck down there, and the elevator didn't come pick me up
Cutter of Grass by JonasO 2025-04-08T02:08:58Z ♥ 3
Very fun! Very cute! Controls took a second to really understand but once I got them they really gave off the "I'm riding a bug" feel
Wave 21 by AlexClay 2025-04-08T02:07:07Z ♥ 1
Wow! Very fun and addictive game. Loved launching the shark as far as I could and the enemies were really cool.
Depths Driller by TasakaSama 2025-04-08T01:59:50Z ♥ 0
Graphics were nice, good use of color. Music was also nice. Collision seems off, not sure if it's just the HTML5 version though
Adventures MZ-015 by MaxDrago 2025-04-08T01:56:06Z ♥ 2
Reminds me of Spyro with the level design. Really fun world that you've built, and really cute design for the robot. Only issue is that the camera seems to malfunction if you move it around too much
Awakening by Celian 2025-04-08T01:47:14Z ♥ 3
Definition of doing a lot with very little. Loved how simple it was, and really dug the vibe. Cool that you made such a complex puzzle in that amount of time
Thallas by HDVR02 2025-04-08T01:37:05Z ♥ 3
Super moody, loved the lighting and the art
Obsidian Deep by Joseph Tan 2025-04-08T01:33:00Z ♥ 2
Really nice, simple game. Satisfying controls and straightforward game loop. Loved the music

Your HTML5 embedding didn't work right :(
One More Folder by Paul-Maxime 2025-04-08T01:25:51Z ♥ 3
Game is intentionally frustrating but in a good way. Love that it forces you to close all windows at certain points just to find out that you can't even run what you were trying to run.

The UI is really cool looking and it's a neat concept
Ciggy by kenevil1 2025-04-08T01:15:09Z ♥ 5
Love some good voxel art, really fun! Wish the controls were a bit more responsive but overall good job
Deep Sea Squid Hero by runningopenloop 2025-04-08T01:10:54Z ♥ 1
Had a lot of fun hurling the creatures until I realized that it was killing them lol. Pretty ambitious to make a full story, good job!

Your link to the game is broken
Dive Deeper by Number6406 2025-04-07T23:39:43Z ♥ 1
Fun concept! Love the store idea to keep the game going a bit longer
Coffin' Time by Nepturenus 2025-04-07T23:31:29Z ♥ 1
Love the concept, I think if the controls were fine tuned + you added a story, you could easily turn this into a full game . Good job
Bungee Spelunker by EvilScotsman 2025-04-07T23:22:28Z ♥ 2
Very interesting concept, fun take on the theme
Hollowspire by simex 2025-04-07T23:15:36Z ♥ 2
Love the art style and the general progression of the game, very moody and relaxing making the carpal tunnel worth it

Love the exploration, videos feel really unique, love the take on "depths" being diving into folders
