I bought the full version a couple of days ago and I'm loving it, only one problem: I re-run Chapter 2 to improve my score but the stats in the main menu now show more deaths than before. It seems like it's counting the total deaths in the chapter, but wouldn't it make more sense if it counted the minimum amount of deaths in a run? That way I can try to beat my personal record.
Thanks for your support, and feedback! That's an interesting suggestion. I had the chapters keeping track of total deaths because I thought it would be fun to know how many times you've died in that chapter. If I remember correctly, speedrun mode should count your deaths and diamonds as a fresh score, which would then be added to the chapter's total death score. I understand why it would be nice to see your best score on the main screen though. I'll consider that for a future update.
Il really enjoyed the game when i played it at launch, and since i've been waiting for the release of the soundtrack ! It is sooo chill ! Do you have plans to release it here or somewhere else ? Would be very cool !
Bought this last week and have become addicted to speedrunning it, currently focused on 100% runs. Wish the SRC page was more active and had chapters 3 and 4. Really amazing game!
That's cool! Glad you're enjoying it!!! I too wish a few more peeps would hit us up with some new runs. I thought about submitting my own runs as a challenge lol
I've actually been "finished" with Below The Ocean for a while, all 4 chapters are available to play. I just forgot to update the development status here on Itch. Sorry for any confusion.

Thank You! Yeah I've had the OST on my to-do list. I'm just not sure about the best way to distribute it.
Good news, i'll be waiting patiently, then. Take care !
I just got all achievements finally :D Took me 5 days.
VERY COOL! Congrats! :D
I really wish there were speed run achievements though
I've thought about that too. I can still add them someday... maybe :)
More Below the Ocean!
