How does your game fit the theme?
You control the crew of the "Blue October" submarine which is diving deeper and deeper into the ocean, but also into troubles...
The name and overall idea are a reference to a board game called "Red November", which I really liked when I was younger :)
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, even the music this time!

The pixel art is really great, and the gameplay was great. Playing each crew member one after another in the same time frame was really fun, especially seeing my past crew members do weird shit around the sub.
The graphic is good, the pixel art is pretty expressive. The idea of the game is pretty good, it is kind of like Barotrauma. However, it could have been excuted better, you are basic just running around clicking things in the submarine. Instead of just clicking, maybe you can add some puzzle to the fixing part. I think it will make your game a lot more entertaining.
Also, if you have time, please checkout my game, thank you.
Thank you for the feedback, I had plans to add minigames like that, but when I got my friends to play a first version of the game, I understood that I made the same mistake as usual and the player doesn’t know what to do at all. So my focus turned to making the game as clear as possible and then I ran out of time to add things like that.
I’ll be sure to check everyone’s games :)
The good old Toccata and Fugue in the main menu ^^ I really like the graphics.
Awesome game. The submarine environment is really well made. And graphics are great. But gameplay is a bit repetitive.
The artwork is really great, same thing for the sound design, great job!
The art and the audio are 10/10 i really enjoyed it but the gameplay could be better
