How does your game fit the theme?
This game is about exploring unknown depths of deep waters.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I made code ,models ,textures and sounds were taken from elsewhere. In total it took me around 3 - 4 days to make , I had limited time available but I am still proud of the result.

I chuckled a little when I first Ecco-the-dolphin flipped out of the water after getting some speed increases, and full on laughed when after a few more speed increases I could just fly around outside/underneath the map to really explore. What was the third upgrade, "Pickups power" supposed to do? I never managed to find any pickups to power.

Developer

Third upgrade was supposed to buff O2 pickups and speed pickups but I run out of time to add them. And yes once you start flying is becomes super fun and funny at the same time :D

great display of ur coding! would love to see what u could do w a full week!

Submitted

grea concept it might be a little bit glitchy because my pc can't run it easly :( but i played so many games and had the same concept like you to save other underwater great  game try to update or make the control more better and it could be good 

edit :when the player enter the water try using a shader that make the color correction more blue and green it could be a good realistic and satisfying also

Developer

I had nice water shader but it doesn't seem to work on webgl. Might update game more after jam since i build most of the game during last 20hrs of jam.

Submitted

Very fun! I got so fast I flied and noclipped out of the map!

Submitted

The music is a little stressful. I was able to fly out of the starting zone by mashing space instead of E. But the game is good ! :)

Developer

Flying part is kind of funny. I made the game so that you can break it when you get far enough . I think that adds extra fun :D (smash space button become superman :D)

Submitted

I love the game design and the effect o the cam when you dive deeper, I struggled at first with the controls, but figured it out quickly :D very good game you deserve more ratings

Submitted

Very cool game! I like how sinister the game is and its secrets about it! I kind of tried to go upwards and got sent flying (and soft-locked) instead :] Good job on the game!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! Glad you liked it , I wish I had 1 more day I could have made more thing to discover , I made all ui/map/objects during the night before summit :D

Submitted

I really like the terrain and 3D glasses effect on it :)

Developer

Thanks :)

Submitted

Great atmosphere. I didn´t know how to use the controls at first but when I realized how they work, it was really fun

Submitted

Frightening music, but the game is not bad. Graphics are nice too.)

Developer

Glad you liked it.

Submitted

cool environment and music!

Developer

Thank you ! :)

Submitted

The audio was tense, that I really liked. Player controllers were hard to adapt but easy when you get used to it. But I discovered a little bug that happens when you try to go left.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing the game ! Glad you liked it. Gonna give yours a shot too :)

Submitted

Fun game. I Like how you keep having to press space to move forward, its a way of movement I dont see very often. also it was really fun to break the game, how bad that might sound. Like if your movement speed was fast enough, you could just fly out of the map and explore things that wheren't meant to be found. also the.. graveyards? or pedestals (I dont know what they are) where also a pretty good way to encurage players to explore. I played it for quite a long time and I think I can safely say I found everything.

The movement was a bit buggy some times, and it wasn't that clear what to do in the begining, but It was a really fun game overall.

Great game. keep it up♥

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I too think breaking the game with the crazy movement is the best part :D , I wish I had 1 or 2 more days would have added more things to explore :)

Submitted

Good looking! But I can't go deeper as I lose O2 faster and I died

Developer

Thanks for playing, the more you die the better you become at the game since you gain currency every time you die. You can totally break the game with many upgrades :D .

Submitted

Pressing space doesn't seem to move the character. Aside from that, the game does look good and fits the theme well 

Submitted

nice Game :D the movement isn't working for me though. do you know why?

Developer(+1)

thanks, you need keep pressing space to keep moving.  I should have explained that :D
