Out of Your Depth by nopogo

[raw]
made by nopogo for Ludum Dare 48 (JAM)

This game is played by catching as many fish as you can before your oxygen runs out. Buy upgrades at the store to make your runs more e-fish-ent. Send us your high score screen caps! (it shows you when you leave the game)

Linux build gave us an error. I'll get on that after some sleep. For now linux users can try the webgl version. Please be aware this version is also broken a.f. this game is best enjoyed in standalone.

Thank you for playing and your feedback!

Kind of fun timewaster :thumbsup: Bit slow as the upgrades feel quite expensive while their effects feel a bit indifferent (e.g. couldn't tell if the weight upgrade did anything or not). Some way of visualizing what upgrades I have bought could have been nice :thinking:

The start feels a bit slow, but once you buy upgrades and reach deeper depths the game really picks up.

Great game overall, I liked the graphics and sense of advancement in the game. I thought that the effects could have been more impactful however. Well done

Fun game! I got total depth of around 400~ I spent all of my money on weight upgrades and one oxygen upgrade. Cant say i felt a difference with the weights. Perhaps the impact should be more significant. Great submission tho!

fun and simple little game :) One thing that has not been brought up in the comments and that would (I think) Improve the game experience : Make the oxygen level more visible to the player (by centering it on the player for example), because it is kind of frustrating to move you eyes between the fish and the timer and on top of that it would increase the stress level of the player beeing constantly reminded that he has a limited amount of time :)

Not gonna lie: spent far too long playing this haha
Started playing then looked at the time and over 30 mins had passed. That is a sign the game must be entertaining! Neat concept well executed.

Well done! I especially like the art style. It was also nice to see a nice variety of creatures to catch. Hook acted in a weir way, but otherwise it was a fun experience.
