Yeah, it is disappointing, but it was a good lesson to make frequent builds as we are working on the game to double/triple check sure it works in build. Thank you for your kind words, we will be continuing to work on it during the voting period so that the next release has even more content than originally intended and working portals.
There was an issue with the build where all the portals lost their scene references so they are currently not doing anything. There were 6 levels created, which will be available after the voting period is over.
Thank you for the reply. Yeah, we noticed after the submission time ended (and after a good deal of troubleshooting) that on builds the portals lost their references to the other levels. After the voting time ends a new build will be available that fixes this.
Hey, thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, we posted this last minute and it seems there was an error with our scene transition system that was only in the builds so we did not notice it. We have more content that will be available after the voting period ends.
Sorry for the delay, SpectralAudio is now a contributor on this game so you should be able to find their page through this submission now. Yeah, that is our website where you can find some information about our team members and some of our game projects (though it needs to be updated on the games front).
Thanks for the reminder, we will be updating the game entry with more information throughout the day. In terms of the music's source, this was done by one of our team members named Marc Uddo (SpectralAudio on Itch).
Great design and well made! I really enjoyed this one as it reminded me of the old arcade game Lunar Lander. Making that a level game was a stroke of brilliance! I unfortunately don't see how it follows the theme, however, but otherwise its a great game!
I like the level design and mechanics you've added. I like that the player can move freely under water, but can't move on land without jumping. Very unique!
Great game with a lot of potential. I like the upgrade system and the use of bubbles for air. I do have a couple suggestions if you plan to expand on the game:
1. Instead of "Starting at a deeper depth" let the player decrease the rate at which their oxygen drains and add a meters depth.
2. Start the game above the surface so you can get more use out of that *Splash* sound effect
This would make for a great mobile game! I like how the diamonds refill the boost meter, allowing the player to boost for days. It also ups the difficulty as it becomes a risk vs reward. Well done
Im already making plans for progression. Upgrades and equipment is one of the first features ill add after bug fixes. I'll also do more gradual progression of level difficulty and mechanics introduction.
Thanks! I do feel like i need a tutorial because you dont need the surface to refil oxygen. There are air pockets scatterd about that apear as green, horizontal lines on the radar. I want to make this game a full release so ill need that.
I will definently use the white text instructions though, thanks for the suggestion and thanks for giving my game a try!

Losing oxygen on colision is linked to your velocity on impact. I limited the player's velocity and decreased their acceleration speed so they cant bang around as much (updating after Jam). That said I should half the oxygen loss and up the damage threshold.
The note about an oxygen warning is a great idea and I will definently add that, thanks!
I believe I can fly! I believe I can leave the map!
Ok jokes aside. I liked the sound effects and music. it wasn't on theme but I liked it.
Also with the flying I'm not really one to talk. I forgot to limit the velocity of my game and people found out they could take their submarine to the stars!
I got scammed! I had to play this game to the end. I just couldn't stop! Great game!
I did find one bug. If you run out of fuel the prices don't reset and you go back down to base level, making it exponentially harder to get back up. Love the concept and game!
I should have gone to you for tips on how to teach people to play a game! lol Surprised to find a game so similar to my own while being completely different! Great design, really fun, and fits the theme perfectly! Well done!
Love the voiced sound effects! Music was a bit buggy and it switched every time I touched the wall creating a perpetual *DONG*. The rock breaking broke my ears tbh. I like that you used the same 02 meter that I did, lol
