How does your game fit the theme?
The Hero of the story is a vessel diving deeper and deeper. Players will also dive deep into the narrative to solve a mystery.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
We used one package for FX particle effects, and a free audio library song from youtube. All other assets were created from scratch for this game jam.

Excellent graphics, good concept and atmospheric music.
Thanks for playing! Glad to hear you liked the graphics.
Great game with a really nice atmospere, very intense ! Good job !
Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it!
Yeees! I thoroughly enjoyed the music, which complements the surroundings perfectly. The inclusion of the riddle was a creative touch. Needed something to scare me or something but so far an awesome submission.
Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it. Would've been fun to have something huge chasing you at the end, haha. I'll for sure have to add it in there sometime after this is over.
Great job on the models and the atmosphere. Maybe you could add a note or some indication for the player because at the beginning the game was not very straightforward.
Thanks for playing. Sorry it was a little confusing at first. Hopefully it started to come together as you collected the riddle. I think my mistake was putting all that info in the itch page rather than the actually game. I'll definitely have to add a tutorial section or something in the game to help explain the goal. Glad you like the environment.
Yea, exactly. Adding a tutorial level or simply some info bubbles throughout the gameplay would help a ton with the game.
Loved the concept and the gameplay. The music was intense.. I was freaking out that there will be a monster or sea creature coming out any time .. thrilling .. very fun game
Thanks, haha. I'm glad you liked it even with the intense music.
Good job, man!)
Thank you.
Weird game, to be honest… I didn’t really understood what’s happening here, lol. Music adds some tension that isn’t really here actually, sound design… where, it doesn’t exists. Controls feels nice, but sound is lacking sadly. Gameplay isn’t bad, but nothing more, really (says me, the person who just made some first person platformer). Fits theme perfectly tho.
Thanks for being honest. I don't have really any experience with sound design, which is pretty obvious since the game didn't have any. I have gotten some good tips from this game jam for the next one, and I'm all ears if you have any advice for ways I can get good audio clips for better SFX.
