My biggest complaint was that you have to look away from the window and the compass in order to move around, which made it really hard to go where I needed to.\n\nThe atmosphere and visuals are great, and I enjoyed the complexity of the control scheme (e.g. the fill front and back stuff for pitching up and down).

Swimming around the tardigrades in the dim light of the submarine while the laid back guitar plays is definitely a good experience. Other than that, the game is simple and straight to the point. You could have leaned more into a simulator experience by adding more knobs and levers to the controls, or leaned more into the exploration kind of things, although that would involve more assets.

I think it might have gotten a little boring after too much longer, but the game wasn't too long, and all it would need would be one or two other things to do (like maybe a collectible that moves away from you, or some kind of basic enemy to avoid), and I think it could last a long time.\n\nI like the art.
