This was fantastic! Super well-polished and functioned really well for me. At first, I wasn't a fan of the underwater tile sets, and it was a tad bit difficult to distinguish certain objects from each other. However, it grew on me and really conveyed the sense of claustrophobia and just how limiting it would be to view the world through a little viewport on an old diving helmet. The sound design was phenomenal! The thing that stuck out to me was how some moments would play sound effects that almost feel like "auditory jumpscares", but then you realize that it's part of the soundtrack. Those moments were really well done! Great stuff here!!
Thanks so much! Glad to hear you enjoyed the sound design and limited vision. Really, the audio team knocked it out of the park with this project.
Amazing!! It feels so polished. Great job. The art style is incredible and the music is sick!!
I sadly got stuck after I came back from the water for the first time after climbing down the stairs. My game probably bugged? I can't navigate, or dive into a different place
Thanks for the kind words. You gotta step on the tiles :)
Maybe the most polished game in the jam, it struggled to run smoothly on my computer though and I don't know why
I loved this one especially the art! It looks great and feels so polished too. Great atmosphere and writing.
The only thing I can suggest is that it could maybe have some more very subtle hints on where to go as I got caught out by the cool light and shadow system which stopped me seeing certain passages altogether at first. But I am definitely just "reaching" with that thought because it was a great system that encouraged exploration too.
Great work!
Loved every minute playing this.
