I've made all the code from scratch, but I used assets from the public domain (listed on the credits) for the design, sound & music

Not a bad game and a good idea. Funny picture and graphics

Developer

thank you for playing my game!

The typing is a unique idea, no other game has this. But gameplay is rather monotonous, you need to work on it. Overall a great game :) 

Developer

Thank you for your feedback. I wanted to work more on it before the due time but I missed time, so I'll make the changes later. For now I'm thinking about it and taking any ideas from anyone.

Thank you for playing my game!

Submitted

Fun and very polished typing game. We used the same tileset :)

I did encounter one issue where a long word was obscured by the environment so I couldn't see it before the fish got to me.

Developer

Thank you for playing my game!

I know it can happen. I have some ideas to change that. It's still in progress! Any ideas is welcome

Nice idea of writing the words. Quite challenging game.

Developer

Very fun game! Great job on the design and I like how the words were related to the theme of the game as well.

Developer

Thank you so much for your feedback! Happy you enjoyed my game

Submitted

Pretty easy and satisfying. Also greate visuals.

Developer

Thank you for taking the time to try my game. Happy you like it. 

For the difficulty, I've made sure everyone can start quite easily. The difficulty is evolving but I planned on modifying the way it change, to have more fishes, make the game faster ... 

Submitted

Simple and satysfying game, amazing artwork. Also good that volume is not imidiately set to very loud and the volume settings save between sessions :)

Developer

Thank you for playing my game and for noticing this detail about the sound. I still need to work on the sound and improve it. This part is new for me

Submitted

Wow super cool idea with amazing graphics. Great game.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback. Happy you liked my game !

Submitted

really well made game, great fun!

Especially love the creativity will the ocean/sea based words. Not to mention the art style is beautiful. Also love the concept of the game too, you don't tend to find many typing games anymore.

Was quite stressful, especially with fish appearing from the foreground areas, and right next to you. Required fast reaction and typing (Which i dont have lol)

Developer

Thank you for taking the time to try my game and to send your feedback. Happy you liked it !

Fun fact: I tried to use chatgpt to generate the dictionary of words related to the theme of the game jam, but when I asked for 100 words of 3 letters he game me words and remove the letters. Ocean became Oce... An other time he gave me a list of 100 time the same word. And for the longer words, he put multiple words together... I ended up searching for a list with Google and create my own.

For the art, I found the tile map on open game art. I'm not an artist 😔 but later I'll try to create my own and create different ambiances according to how deep you are !

I asked my friend to try it, to have an idea of the difficulty, because I'm slow at typing too 😂

Submitted

Interesting concept , love the easiness of game play. Welldone

Developer

Thank you for taking the time to play my game and to post your feedback. I'm happy you liked it!

I want the game to be progressively hard. Start slow and make you sweat after a while. I still need to upgrade the way the difficulty evolves during the game. I got some idea, but I needed some feedback first. I don't want it to be to hard to fast.

Submitted

Typing games remind me of of a a different time, and this is a very nice one. I got to about 1000m and then got munched by a fish. A simple music loop could go a long way!

Developer

Thank you for playing and for your feedback ! The idea is from my roommate Sammy. He showed me an old game "Typing of the dead" and I'm very happy you like this type of game and what I've made !

Submitted

Great, fun concept no big issues. Reached 550 meters on my first try, i'm proud of myself :)

Developer

Thank you for playing, I'm happy you liked it. It the first game I publish like that, and I'm really happy when people enjoy it ! 

Submitted

This was great and reminded me of Epistory!

I wish there would be more fish as it gets empty sometimes (but maybe it's just my typing speed 🤐)

Developer(+1)

Thank you ! It was inspired by Typing of the dead (someone showed me and gave me the idea)

I made sure it wasn't to hard on start. It gets harder the deeper you go, but I still need to make some adjustments on the way the difficulty evolves. 

Thank you for playing!!

Submitted(+1)

That's cool! I have only played Epistory and that was awesome! Great game nevertheless. Good luck.

Submitted

It's a very creative game and the art is great!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing.

The art wasn't from me, but I made sure to add some dimensions with the different parallaxe (background, midground and foreground)

Submitted

Great game and extremely fun to play! The graphics are stunning.

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Never done games like that. The art wasn't from me, I got the tile map from open game art, but it was really fun to make the design all together!

Submitted

Great art, fun concept

Developer

Thank you for playing. 

I'm really happy you liked it !
