Very cool style, lots of potential here. The movement is a little cumbersome although it is appropriate for the underwater setting. Nice pixel art and the monster does look very threatening. Could stand to have a little more UI. I wasn't certain what I picked up was the artifact until I got back to the entrance. Also as said before, great death animation :)

We loved your art style (special mention to that death animation ;D), good atmosphere and concept, congratulations!

I really like the art style and exploring the ruins is spooky because you don't know where the monsters are. I also enjoyed the little bit of lore, it adds a lot to a game and makes it that more enjoyable.

Gorgeous pixel art and a 40,000 leagues under the sea vibe make this top down dungeon crawler hard not to enjoy. The artists and designers did a good job giving you that floaty underwater feel to the controls, and (intentional or not) I really enjoyed exploiting diagonals to trade accuracy in motion for faster speed. Nothing felt worse (or more deserved) than zooming through the map only to get impaled on a spike trap and being helpless as some sea creature came and cut me in half. Also kudos to the artist for that animation haha.

Definitely made with love, I look forward to more games by Dark Matter Studios. Thanks for sharing!
