The atmosphere of this game is incredible! Worm enemies were freaky as hell! Well done!

Wow, destructable terrain is really cool! Wish I had more power to bash through multiple tiles.
Immersive atmosphere, love the worm and its movement, good stuff! Can't seem to get used to controlling a character like that, maybe alternative controls could help?

Thank you for the game!

Crazy cool art style and aesthetic. You did a great job setting the unsettling atmosphere.

Really interesting visual design! On the one hand - my eyes hurt a bit (probably too dark), on the other hand - it looked very interesting, and some effects were great.

The movement was a bit confusing at first - the way characters steer makes me feel like they are rotating with buttons (like in a car), not moving in that direction. But after getting used to it the confusion disappears.

Overall - great submission, totally love the vibes of it, although I'd love it to be a bit less painfully dark :)

And kudos for Godot!

Pretty nice atmospheric entry. I found floating around and dodging the lil grabby guys pretty enjoyable, but them big chompers really pushed it closer to a horror experience lol. I liked the controls a lot, the swimming felt really tight. Making your energy and health intertwined is definitely a smart economical decision. Great work!

Just when I thought the enemies couldn't get any creepier, THEY GOT BIGGER!!!

Love the sound design in this game, it added so much atmosphere to this world and I could feel myself getting sucked into it.

Atmosphere is very nice and i like the art, my favorite part is the chomping enemy, its animations reminds me of rain world

Really good-looking game that reminded me a lot of subnautica with its creatures. Level navigation was entertaining, even if I found myself getting turned around a lot. The chase sequence is great, had me racking my memory to avoid all the corners the levels have. I think the player drifts slightly to the left or right when going up or down, which made dashing through narrow gaps a bit weird a few times. Overall, great game!

Played the first level, but I'm bad, so I watched someone play the rest.

Excellent aesthetic, love how the character feels to control. Great enemies as well, butt clenchers for sure.  Awesome job! :)

Really beautiful!

Not enough Donkey Kong, but still very good.

Enjoyed the stylization pixel look of the game, and the worm enemy creatures were really cool to look at! also i feel like a lot of arrow key games the controls are hard to use, but this one didnt have that issue, the controls felt VERY smooth and easy to use.

Great atmosphere! Loved the usage of the Power theme. I was so unsettled but in the best way haha.

It shows the fear of the deep sea...!

Great atmosphere :)

Graphics look excellent, though your fish is hard to see.  Sound effects are great.  Ambience is top notch.  Exploration is awesome in this game.  The enemies are creepy and well designed.

I tried to get two of the enemies to injure each other, but it didn't seem possible.

Does the game just go on and on?  I left it after the 4th orb.

You know I hadn't thought about players not knowing the map size. No, the 3 levels are each only 6x3, in terms of the mini-map. Thanks for playing!

Enjoyed the spookiness of this game, and the breakable walls, with colorful textures.  The character was a little hard to see. It took me a second to even realize he was there haha! Very intrigued to see where this goes

Submitted(+1)

Gives me big survival horror flashbacks with those underwater claw mouths chasing me around in the darkness. Grateful you highlighted their head for me! Fun, spooky time.

Beautiful atmosphere. I liked how you could use the "bad" mechanic of damaging yourself on walls to make better paths if you wanted too. Would've liked the medium enemies not to one-shot me but otherwise a fantastic game :)
