Hey nenayz! I just played Deeper Down and had a blast. The visual style is charming, and the sound design feels really punchy and satisfying.
I have two main points of feedback for you:
- Camera Shake: When there are many enemies on screen and I use the 'carriage' ability, the screen shakes a bit too intensely. It makes it hard to see what's happening during chaotic moments.
- Progression: Currently, the rooms with upgrades feel a bit underwhelming. I think switching to an XP-based system might feel more rewarding — by the time I reached 500 points, I barely felt any significant change in my character's strength.
Overall, it's a solid jam entry with great potential! Don't let the 'oversaturated genre' comments discourage you — you've got a great foundation here. Would love it if you could check out my project, Lucky Cat: God's Touch, when you get a chance. Good luck!
