Really like that you choose a "people" subtheme, like me.
I'm so impresed by the pixel art, pretty good work!

It's kind of like a game built largely around the drowning mechanics of Sonic. Very cool and moody!

Kind of needs some guidelines? I swam around until I died, not knowing what I was supposed to do at all^^ I like the start of the game, simple story telling at it's best!

really oppressive. Good game design, bubbles come at the right moment.
the platform part have collision problems, but it isn't the bigger part so not serious problem.

Really good art and controls. Bubbles are spaced out well, but I had no idea where to go at one point and died.

Very, very good graphics. Tight game play. Clear objective. What more could you ask for? Okay, maybe a killer soundtrack, but still, fantastic job!

That was a pretty neat game. I like puzzles who are not afraid to be hard. There are some graphical glitches (squares showing up around the sprites), but the game in general is pretty solid.

Thanks for the game!

Liked the idea but for me it ran so jerkily that it was hard to play.

The game has solid tiles, but a maze-like gameplay. I felt I only got so far because I happened to stumble upon the correct direction. There certainly were not enough air bubbles underwater to facilitate exploring unless you know exactly where you're going. I didn't end up finishing it because dying meant playing the whole game over from the beginning. Checkpoints and/or more bubbles would have made this game less frustrating.

I did however, love the audio. Good ambient light background music, coupled with the breathing really set the mood.

Couldn't play past the water (overwhelming fear of water levels). But I really liked what I saw up until then.

Some nice touches in there, eg, the swimming and the breathing when he starts running out of air.

The goal was made very clear right from the start, and that's a very strong point. I like the pixel art, and the water looks really nice. After the initial goal though, I found myself pretty lost. Jumping around was fun, but I had a difficult time figuring out how to progress. A little more polish and direction would really make this game shine.

Nice game, but I could never figure out the mechanics behind when you jump higher than normal, so it can a bit frustrating when jumping from one place to another

I like the graphics on the screen shots but when I play the game it looks like it upscaled 3 or 4 times and looks all blury. Nonetheless, looking at the screen shots, I can get a clear idea.
I liked the story too and found the control very responsive.
Your story leaves space for the player's imagination to fill the gaps. Another good point.
I haven't beaten it yet but I'll definitely try again.

Very interesting, atmospheric. I swam a lot and then I drowned. I'll have to explore more to see what's going on. The mysteriousness of it has me hooked.

Super laggy for me :/ I included it in part 25 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/06U_lc3kLp4

I liked it. At first I thought there wasn't a lot to do, but then I discovered you can dive. Good job!

Cool visuals, the three-air-bubbles-warning-to-drown noise caught me off guard xD, Sweet game
