It was simple but great. Nice job
The ship didn't feel that fun to control, but it might have been that challenging with crisper controls. The fact that running out of oxygen simply made you resurface made the resurfacing button a little pointless. It was slightly weird that you had to find and buy the upgrades. Finding the upgrades was the bottleneck for me, which made treasures feel a little pointless. On top of this, the upgrades didn't have prices so if I couldn't buy something, I had no idea how far away from purchasing I was. It also was very unclear what most of the upgrades did.
Overall, a cute little game with atmosphere, but the actual game part could've benefited from a bit more polish.

You were right, very similar to my game.
Pros:
- Ship Upgrading
- Ambient animations (fish, whales etc)
Cons:
- I think a general lighting pass may really help here. I think for the sub in general you could add a blueish overlay to it to make it feel more like it was under water. Currently it feels like its sitting above
- The resurfacing mechanic felt a little odd and the UI placement of the Oxygen the first few times I didn't even know what was happening.
- Some sort of in game indicator around the ship to know Oxygen is below a certain percent could really help the above comment
@joni-jarvinen @rubyes @lohii Thank you, too! :heart: I just added a hint to the description that the store items have tooltips. Thank you for pointing that out. :bow:
@lohii @alexhicks Thank you very much for your detailed feedback! I agree to the suggestions you make and hope to learn from them for our next jam. :bow:
