Otherwise, the art style and the audio are amazing and really get that "sinking feeling".
I sense a great game here though!
I would have loved if the fish was animated as well. But the art style was unique and great!
Pros:
- Cute, hand-drawn graphics!
- Fish in a tank is a humorous touch
- Funky animation of main character
- Good soundscape for mood building
Cons:
- I'm not exactly sure what the goal is
- Only 3 screens were ok to activate
- VERY JANKY ladder controls: sometimes you climb, sometimes you drop, you slide on it like on ice.
- Because of ladders, I got stuck in a metal wall (screenshot attached)
- Some arrows indicating 'event' were broken in place
- Kitchen, first aid, bombs and electric plant events - I had no clue whether I should go check the are or click some buttons. Kitchen told me to press E, so I pressed it multiple times and nothing happened
- Wish there was other sounds
- No HTML5 Version (only link to downloadable)
A nice try nontheless, especially graphic-wise! Keep up the good work!
