Nice and relaxing :) Filled out my photobook :fish: Although i would suggest making it more clear what gives you a better score! \n\nFor example heres to pics of a squid! I prefer the bigger one where he is completely in shot, however it got 5 points compared to one where he is far away? Anyway. Still a great game, good job :blowfish: :tropical_fish: :camera: \n\n![squid 5.JPG](\/\/\/raw\/08f\/33\/z\/41ffa.jpg)\n![squid 10.JPG](\/\/\/raw\/08f\/33\/z\/41ffb.jpg)","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":687245,"author_name":"SneakyLemon","author_uid":"sneakylemon","epoch":1619959262,"text":"I really like this one! I even found a shark chilling in a conch :D\n![shark.png](\/\/\/raw\/02c\/e1\/z\/41ffe.png)\n\nThe movement is a bit clunky. Strafing would have been nice, but more importantly I expected ascend\/descend buttons in addition to forward and back. As is, backing away just a little bit to take a centered photo of something on the ground was probably more annoying than it should have been.\n\nThat said, the atmosphere is great! The ambience really adds to the experience, and the models are well done (as are the animations). I even tried to go out of bounds, but was stopped, so good job on taking that into account.\n\nI would really like to see this as a full game with modern graphics and perhaps a story. It definitely needs to be longer, as I \"finished\" the game rather quickly.

The music is perfect for the mood. I think I got too close to the surface and got stuck on a collider or something though - I ended up able to move horizontally but not back down vertically. \n\nFeedback: having the camera be always on, and not impede movement would be better, letting you just quickly snap a photo with left click. And, of course, a proper quit button rather than needing alt-f4!\n\nGreat entry overall!","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":688440,"author_name":"Turgunen","author_uid":"turgunen","epoch":1619984004,"text":"Great and relaxing game.

The graphics are beautiful, especially the 3D model of each fish. The music is relaxing, and the gameplay of taking pictures of the animals (and with notes) is quite interesting. I managed to make a 10\/10 almost all fish except the Eel, which manages 9\/10. I tried in many ways I couldn't get a 10\/10 picture of the eel.
