Not sure if I just didn't get it or not but it felt very sluggish to move at all

This game feels like it's welcome in mobile games, nice use of health, my suggestion, have a button to turn on the lights

Nice concept and fun game! In my opinion the radar could show the bombs in a different color, maybe as an upgrade, idk if thats already in the game. Good job!

Developer(+1)

Yes when you upgrade radar for more than half the bombs are showen in red. Thanks!

It was fun, but I didn't know what to do at many points :D

This  is a great concept, I think it deserves  to be more developped, and why not becoming a  real game !

Things I liked

  • The  roguelike aspect is very cool and not  often seen in game jam because it take too much time to implement, good work with that
  • The energy management is very fun, with different ways to see (light and radar) and you have to turn off some things to get deeper and make more points

Things you can improve in the future

  • Please add a tutorial or make things more explicit for the player, it's hard to understand all information and buttons...
  • Movement is too slow in my opinion, with the fact that we can only know approximately where the mine are, it's hard to avoid them
  • These game could be really cool with better graphics of the animals you encounter, like discovering real species of our oceans

Fun descent into the abyss, like the  naval mine effect and optional upgrades.

Really unique interpretation of the limitation, which is great. I really enjoyed the concept, I thought the gameplay was fun. Visuals were OK, but for some reason they were all blurry, as if they had some filter over them? If the pixel art was sharp with no filtering it would have looked better. Apart from that, overall solid game.

Developer

Thank you. It is not a filter. Something went wrong and I noticed it after sending the game.

It looks like there's a lot that I didn't discover but still a fun game!

Nice adventure game. The varying upgrades added to the experience, though I was missing a speed option to descend faster.

Developer

Thanks. Steering enhancement adds speed to your bathyscaphe ;)
