How does your game fit the theme?
You try to memorize the path slightly better every try. Your time-limit increases when you reach checkpoints.
This allows you to dive a little deeper into the maze every round!

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All code and sprites are made by me. Sound effects are from a purchased pack and music is from pixabay.com. Font is from dafont.com.

High score 14! This was a pleasant surprise. The game sounds odd based on the description. I don't normally get very far into memory-based challenges, but I surprised myself! I found myself naming parts of the level and getting more consistent, which was pretty satisfying and it felt like a genuine accomplishment every time I started getting further. It was oddly rewarding 😄

It was also nicely polished and felt balanced and fair. All-around well-executed. It took me a while to realize it's high-score based and there's no finish. I definitely would've pushed myself harder if I knew it was beatable.

This was a cool, satisfying experiment! I'd love your thoughts on my game if you get a chance 😊

Hey, good job - 14 is actually an impressive score! Thanks a lot for such detailed feedback.
Not sure what you mean about the description, do you think it doesn't explain the game well? It's an unusual concept so it was hard to formulate the game mechanics. Any ideas on how to better describe it?
PS: Your game looks insane 😮, will definitely try it out!

That description describes the game perfectly, I just meant that it's a unique game concept. When someone hears "memorize your way through a maze," they might respond "there is no hope and I will instantly get lost."

That's why I was pleasantly surprised by how well I did. It was fun to learn I can do that 😄

ExarpoDeveloper2 years ago

Hmm, strange. I haven't heard about this issue from anyone else.
Have you tried reloading the game and uhm... reconnecting you keyboard or something?

emircanisancSubmitted2 years ago

Yes, even though I refreshed the page a few times, it didn't fix it.

Dive To Survive

Glad you enjoyed!
Hard huh😄? it is indeed quite challenging, but as you replay the same maze many times you'll get into it! What score did you reach?

really interesting game and fun to play, the music is catchy and the graphics are very good for the game it is.

However, I encountered a bug: at certain restarts the first checkpoint does not give me extra time. But other than that, it's a really good game!
