This game is really calming

The art and underwater physics are awesome!

the graphics are great. I had a hard time maneuvering the drill though. Rotation was really tough and slow. Did not expect a whale

Great detail in the graphics, quite enjoyed the depth meter in the corner there great work on that. Would like to add I feel the game can be improved with a little more content the further you go down, but overall nice work!

@jgur Thankyou! I completely agree with more content deeper down, time and brainpower got the best of me there.

@zykra Thanks, might pivot to just a game with whalesongs in the background

@liammasters Thankyou so much, probably the most effort into those things I have done for a jam game

@mizatorian Yeah the rotation could maybe be a bit faster or have less drag, was hard to get right once I had played it a lot testing. Glad you found the whale! :)

Very good atmosphere! I was scared when the lights turn off. But it was very hard to control this submarine, I am stumble every rock

@lokt02 I guess it isn't supposed to be easy to control, the movement is the main challenge of the game. Thanks for the comment!

Love it. Really solid work bud, gives a great atmosphere. Only thing I noticed was the collision bounding seems to either be too big or not rotate with the player.

the art is fabulous, love the whale he is really cool, movement is difficult by like you say it isn't suppposed to be easy to move around a heavy drilling machine under water haha.

Very nice game. Very similar to ancient Moon Lander game. I love the graphics.

@indigowolf Thanks :) The collisions seem fine for me, do you have any more detail?

@northerndonut Thankyou! I was quite proud of the whale haha.

@robotex thankyou so much

@james-gillespie It seemed that when I was rotated the round, pink obstacles would still make contact with the ship even when it appeared to be a reasonable distance away.

@indigowolf Oh yeah, they pretty much just attack when you get close, but that distance does respect the colliders shape. Could probably do with a better visual indicator of the range.

Neat relaxing game which can be stressful sometimes. I really like the sounds and music. The vehicle could turn a little faster, although it's a slow paced game. Kudos on a solid entry!

Very pretty game, I too enjoyed the whale. I didn't quite understand what was happening once I got to the end, I thought I had run out of energy, but then the end screen popped up. I did enjoy how the deeper you went the darker it was, that was neat!

I love the mood of this game! The art is perfect and feel great as you progress deeper and deeper! Thanks for the game, and congratulations! :smile: RIP my mining drills at the bottom of the sea!

Art looks really good! I just struggled getting the controls right. :)

I felt like the rotations controls were inverted, and gave me some fight.
Once I manage to get a strong grip to it I was able to move forward. I like the simple and strong mechanics and how it push me to go deeper.
Sound and music were very calming and add it a lot to the experience.
One funny thing, my game have the same mechanic of moving your ship up to slow down and down to speed up. Great minds...

Nice game, I like the general mood, and the graphics are lovely. I can't make up my mind on whether it would've been better with music, or whether having just silence works best for a marine exploration game like that.

The controls were a bit clunky at times. Rotation is very slow, as is the upwards direction/brakes, whereas the left/right movements are quite fast!

A pleasant experience overall!

Very nicely done game. I liked the mood as you slowly descended into the darkness. Cool whale sounds ;-) I guess the controls were supposed to feel a bit janky. But I think I would have preferred the W key to move me into the direction of my drill, if that makes sense? Good work overall!

Nice entry! The controls felt a bit clumsy, I'd personally love it to be faster and more responsive. Cool graphics and concept, nice job!

Turning's a little sluggish especially, but I don't mind the pace in this game. Kinda got a "Lunar Lander" thing going on under the sea. Was a bit short and not especially difficult, but I liked the atmosphere well enough and graphically, I really dig it. Heh. Dig.

The whale got me xD nice game, a bit short, but nice :)

It is a good looking short game.. Great Job.

Never quite got the hang of maneuvering, the controls felt really laggy.

Looks great, very atmospheric. The ship seems out of control though. It responds slowly and erratically. It seems like it randomly starts to rotate at some point or it gets stuck.

Loved the whale and general atmosphere, I kind of like the slow controls, felt like how an underwater craft might behave but definitely some room for tweaking.
