This look of the character ... simple, I believe that with more animations will be better, the water is interesting, a fluid water would also be a good one.

Couldn't get the game to run on my side. When it starts the guy is swimming for 2 seconds and then everything freezes. Had to refresh browser to only let the same thing happen again :(
I'm running chrome. Hope you can fix the bug.

I just could not pass the first buoy, the guy does not dive deep enough. And if I go slow shark catches me.

Nice-looking game and I guess the "Running out of power" is the player from this click-fest :sweat_smile: . I wouldn't mind some easier obstacles in the beginning of the map so you can get going a bit easier, and that shark really comes from nowhere, some warning would be nice.

Took me quite a few attempts to get past the first buoy but I did it eventually :)

Some nice art here. I had to download the client because the web version lacked a half of the textures.

I really like the art style, nice work ! Game is quite difficult, you need perfect timing to avoid buoy. Maybe a little warning would be a nice update.

Great! I got the controls on my third try. Bit frustrating, how quickly he goes up. But fun, great work!

Cool art! Took me a while to get used to the controls though.

Game is a bit hard, got past the first obstacle after more than 20 retries :-/

Really doesn't feel like I'm against the shark, more like I'm against the buoys. The art is very expressive but could use more animations. Could also use some sound effects, something to add a bit more feedback. It is pretty addictive and I played a bunch of times trying to get a high score, so fun in that way.

It was fun to play, but so hard to get the controls ! I didnt get clearly how to avoid these buoys. The art style was good and I liked the animations ! If there was some sound effects or some music it was going to be better ! Otherwise, good entry ****(4/5)**** !
