Once More In Ocean by Magnetism
Hello! This is Magnetism, together with @Tyrannos.
This time, we created Once More In Ocean, a game centered around sound, where you play as a Star Spirit collecting lost treasures.
You will pilot your astral radar vessel across the ocean, using signals to locate what has been forgotten.
The theme Signal is fascinating to us, as it represents an alternative way of perceiving the world — one that is frequency-based, self-scaled, and intuitive.
In our game, we transformed information that is usually presented visually into auditory signals. Treasure hunting is no longer about spotting something shiny on a map — it becomes a process of listening, interpreting, and sensing.
To support this, we designed a wide range of in-game signal sounds. Additionally, the game features six original soundtrack pieces. While drifting across the sea, don’t forget to turn on your radio.
Special thanks to the audio contributors from PIXABAY!
[Instruction]
This game requires keyboard and mouse to play
1. Use the WASD keys to control the direction of the boat, and the arrow keys to control the salvage device.
2. The dot on the dashboard in the lower left corner indicates the relative position and remaining energy of the salvage device. After diving, the salvage device will gradually consume energy, and it will be forced to rise when the energy is exhausted.
3. The switch in the lower right corner is used to switch between 4 different signals. Only the corresponding signal can detect specific underwater collectibles. The switch next to it is for music radio. Enjoy it!
4. After you successfully salvage and hear the prompt sound, the collected item will surface. Adjust your position slightly, locate the target, and rush towards them to collect it.
5. The dashboard on the left can activate 4 different special abilities. Give it a try!
