Pros:
- As a JS dev myself, I love how easily you put everything toghether code-wise!
- Love the simple pixel art and graduate color / mood change
- Actually, overall monotone color pallete is spot-on
- Blue whale is a nice touch
- Simple audio ques
- Liked the narrative, even though a bit sad one
Cons:
- Maybe a bit too simple audio, but it may make sense in long-term
- Maybe a bit more animation into the character
- Lacking other types of 'obstacles'
Overall a well-executed entry. Love that you used JS. Great Job!
The fact that you tell a story as the player collects objects is really a good idea. The small pace of the game lets the player read quietly the story while the level is ending.
The graphics are really cool and clean. I like the band of fishes going their way laterally while you sink.
The design of the whale is really great too, and the lighting effects are simple but work well with the single color darkening as you sink.
I chose to cut the rope at the end. I wanted to try and follow the whale, but that wasn't possible. At least is was a good last sight.
I used another way in my entry to provide narration into the game, this is really cool to see how other people came with other ideas to tell their stories. Congratulations for the good job!
As some feedback, I would try to make it a bit shorter (like having less time between each item) and definitely uploading to somewhere (like itch.io).
