Also, I think it would be cooler if there were different enemies and challenges in different layers of the ocean.
Couple of notes:
Loved that going down fast cost O2.
The flashlight lure interaction is a great idea. The flashlight isn't useful enough, so I just left it off.
The 'refilling' task is a little tedious, especially since enemies can follow you in there. I usually ended up dying and respawning because I'd get cornered by a ghost.
I'm not sure it's even possible to go up fast enough to get the bends.
Cutscene intro was cool. Your audio levels could use a little balancing - I'd look into compression and eq for your narration, so you can bring the music up under it.
Just some ideas! Great job on this.
Now that on its own is tolerable, but then you also are having the player navigate a maze while on a timer. Maybe I'm missing something since everyone else seems to think the game is great, but I don't find that idea t be particularly fun.
Other then that I think the game is well designed, its just that that dooms the game for me.
Very nice game with lots of polish. Extra points for the intro!

Funny that there only TWO of them ;)
Monkey Island vibes are good here)
But I want more adventure!
