Use of the limitation
We used the 60 second timer as the oxygen limitation in our game so that when the timer reaches 0 the game would end. There are environment hazards that are present to lock down areas and mix up the navigation, which also function as extenders for the timer, though they have a cool down period so players can't sit down and camp which forces the player to explore and find the best routes.

Loved the graphics and puzzle, cute little character, well done !
Had fun jumping around and collecting gold, drowned at the end. Kind of confused. Fun though.
I didn't run into any bugs. The art and music were quite nice, and set the tone well. Menu art was also good, and set the tone super well.
At a gameplay level, there wasn't much going on, though. The diver moved kind of slow, which meant after I died the second time, I wasn't too excited to wade through the game again.
I had fun bumbling through the level and trying to find out what to do, though. Thanks for making this!
Art is beautiful and I love the design of the diver. The music is lovely as well. The addition of the vents that push you up or down are really great!
Sweet and intresting game! Good luck!
After a few gold, it became a bit slow to find the rest, eventually I gave up. :( Some sort of indication or general direction of a piece would have been great. All that aside, the style is solid, everything is so well placed together and looks perfect! :D
Everything about this game fits perfectly, the art is beautiful, the audio fits perfectly, and the concept of the game fits the theme and limitation really well! Really enjoyed it :)
The visuals are lovely, it caught my attention instantly. The concept is also pretty good and could be expanded greatly if you ever decide to continue development, keep up the good work!
Very nice art!I love the limitation idea!
Nice platformer. The screenshake is cool
nice idea. i love the screenshake
Good little platformer.
Nice job!
Excellent implementation of limits. Good design of menus and sprites, not bad music but sounds hurt our ears.
Thank you for the feedback! You can adjust the music using the volume slider in the bottom left corner.
Great visuals and level design! I also really liked lighting change that @PelicanPolice mentioned! Managed to get 6 pieces in one run. The only thing that bothered me that I ran out of suit light(idk, if that's intentional, or is it a bug) and it was really hard to play without light in the depths of this dungeon hehe.
Thank you for the feedback! Yes, the lights turning off is a known bug that we are currently working on fixing for future versions, for now you can reload the page to properly restart if it happens.
Cool use of the theme! The lighting change as you get deeper is a really nice touch. I like also how you added a volume slider, that's very considerate! Not that you'd need it though because the music and sound effects are lovely.
I was able to get to about 5-6 of the pieces but I always found them when I was already holding something so I couldn't get them. Honestly I think that being able to carry more than 1 piece of gold would have been nice. The 60 second limit stops you from doing it all in one go, in addition to not knowing the layout and not wanting to run out of oxygen.
I ended up giving up mostly because it's gets quite repetitive, following through the same pathways each time. Also you'd think he'd be able to swim as it's underwater.
Overall a nice entry, great work
Thank you so much for the feedback!
I designed the levels around making multiple trips and having the players memorize & explore the routes when they go back in to retrieve the other golds, but I can see how it gets repetitive towards the end.
very cool game 👍
Thank you so much!
Cool idea and really interesting level designs. I always completely lost track. Once you hunt for another coin it feels like a different level. I think I managed to get 3 or 4 of them. While it is hard to deliver a coin it doesn't feel unfair.
The art-style is really beautiful and the game itself is really easy to understand.
Great work!
Thank you so much for the positive feedbacks !
Thank you!
