Cool idea and concept. I see potential in this game

I struggled at first to understand the game. I see potential in the game and some things that I think could improve it.

  • I think "F" should toggle float on/off. I found the controls a little awkward.
  • Make it more apparent that fish are damaging you.
  • I think a health bar would be better than hearts.

Pretty fun once I understood what I had to do! I would have loved to have my revenue add up over time though to see how much money I could rack up. Nice game!

Interesting concept. I ended up killing myself on purpose because I didn't think there was a ending. I didn't see any use for the radar mechanic. I love the sound effects that you made! Also when you die the stats don't show properly. Even with killing myself I got to 184 seconds and 474KG of gems and  £191

Thanks, the radar was supposed to show distances to objects (larger for horizontal distance, brighter for closer vertical distance) but I didn’t get a chance to make it work. I’m hoping to get it working in a future build. The ending is to go as deep as you can/get as much stuff then return to the surface but I guess I could make that clearer 😅. Thanks.

It took me a little bit to understand at first, but it was a nice experience. The sounds are funny and the music fits pretty well. With the radar mechanic in place and more polishing, this could become a pretty good game.

I collected £40.00 :D 
and reached 93.83m depth for 107 secs.

The visuals are cool but the controls could be a bit more worked on!
