How did you manage to make this in a week? This is amazing! The art, the story, I love it. I especially like the big fish enemys! Please turn this into a full realease! If it had more gameplay and would cost about 10 or 15 bucks I would definely buy it. And if you do this, please add more of these amazing Enemys. Question: Is the fish-thingy that floats around you made with procedural animation?
Only one thing is missing, I think: In which way is this fitting the theme?
Yes the floaty fish friend is completely procedurally animated through code and so is the player character.
Usually when I do a game jam I try to fit a mechanic to the theme, but this time I wanted to try to build the game around the design philosophy "less is more" / "design by subtraction". I tried to use as little as possible to tell a short story, so the first half is dark and you're always going down, then it switches to being colourful and bright as you return to the surface. I guess I tried to use as little as I could to show the characters relationships
