How does your game fit the theme?
You are diving to the center of the earth, sky-diving and diving through water
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?

Simple graphics and good controls. Lacks musical effects.
Fun gameplay, short experience!
Things I enjoyed ✔️
Things I would like to possibly see with your title. 🤷♂️
Overall 📓
This game was alot of fun! I enjoyed my time playing it! Art work was well done, gameplay was refined! Great work you two!
Thanks for the feedback. I agree with the problems you pointed out. Since submitting the game we have changed the camera to have more of a "look ahead" so the player gets a little more of a chance. Didn't notice the big though, so thanks for the free testing lol.
great work! very fun game, I like the art too
Thanks, and glad you enjoyed it.
Short and sweet
The art-style is very original and has its beauty.
As of the things to improve: Add some sound effects or music to improve game's presentation. Add some indicators for where to go (especially the indicator that you have to go down in water, because not all people find it obvious). I would also be nice if you added some content depth, it doesn't have to be much, maybe some collectibles to reduce your final time or boost your speed. It would also be nice if you made the timer visible during gameplay (to make it more speedrunner friendly) and explained the game story (the fact you are diving to the center of the earth) in game.
The game itself is a creative, short experience, good for it's artstyle and going for the best time. While I wrote about many things that can be improved, remember that all of it is constructive criticism to make the game better.
I would also be happy if you played my game.
Hey thanks for playing! We were actually going to add music and sound, and I already had some ready too (all original). But I wanted to use wwise, so ran into a lot of issues with it lol. I was kinda relearning it again for some aspects, and it was first time trying to do music transitions between different states/sections. That will be in the game in the future if you care to check it out again.
On items, we also had plans for an oxygen boost item while swimming, but also ran out of time for that. The art/animation was done by my partner. Thanks for the criticism and all, will be sure to check out yours later!
Swum so deep that i ended up in the sky again, hehe. Fun little game!
Haha thanks for playing!
