Nice game ! Maybe you could switch the tanks controls for camera-based controls ? It was also a little bit annoying to wait for the oxygen to refil. Otherwise it was a pleasure to explore your little underwater level

Your game is really good. i had fun swimming around underwater collecting gold. i feel like you could have done better on the graphical piece. but otherwise great game

Developer

yeah ik i didnt had time for it so i only foucus on mecanics

Submitted(+1)

Fun game! (I think I've seen a similar submission.... ;> ) I like the graphics and sound! Hovewer, I found it annoying that you have to wait for your oxygen to refill. Overall, good job!

Developer(+1)

yeah ik it can be annoying

Submitted(+1)

Nice job for a first submission! (this technically was also my first gamejam lol, besides some throwaway scratch jam i joined awhile ago) but yeah! I liked the game!

Developer

yeah like me i tried to join some gamjam just for fun not for participation haahh

Submitted(+1)

Really solid game for your first game jam! I would tweak the graphics, but otherwise a great game. 

Developer

ok thx for playing 

Submitted(+1)

Congrats for such a good first submission. I am kinda struggling with the controls but it is really good theme aproach! Well done!

Developer

yeah ik same thing the controls are bad i will try to make them better after the gamejam

Submitted(+1)

Pretty good game! At first I thought touching the walls would send you back (which would be an interesting idea), but when I noticed they don't, I had a pretty good time trying my best to go down. Pretty solid game :)

Developer

yeah i didnt know how to make it work nicely but  yeah thx for playing

Submitted(+1)

Interesting visuals, sounds are a bit scary to be honest :D.

Developer

i wanted to make the map dark and only the light would guide you but i had some troubles then i deleted this idea that why it should be scary but it isnt 

Submitted(+1)

Not a bad entry for your first jam! I think the concept is solid, but there are definitely some small adjustments that could go a long way towards making it more fun. The biggest issue I ran into was that the gold was not being counted correctly, and most of the time it took away from my gold count, making it impossible for me to upgrade anything after a certain point lol. The movement wasn't bad, but I found myself constantly getting stuck on edges of the environment; I think if the tunnels and pathways were twice as wide and tall it would make it easier to move, but the challenge of figuring out where to go would still remain. My only other suggestion would be to make the oxygen and gold count static elements on the screen somewhere, as it can be challenging to read while swimming and moving around in different directions. Hopefully you can iron out that bug and make some adjustments, because I still think the core of the game is good!


You can watch my gameplay video playtest below for some more feedback:

its really Kind of you to do a complete playtest for my game thx Bro ^_^ ik the gold bar IS kinda Bad Cuz in my plans i wanted  TO put an ui about golds but i didnt had time Also i kinda had troubles if thé gold count système bcs When you die thé gold système stop working for some reasons but if you stayed Alive It Will still work btw thé sinking boat IS in thé deepest place you need likely 3 oxygène upgrades ans 5speed upgrades and u Will arrive to thé boat i mena thx for everything ans i Will Try to update It soon After thé gamejam ❤️❤️

We interpreted the theme in the same direction! Was fun to see how different the games are though.

Traversal was a bit sticky and the layout confusing, sadly I didn’t manage to find the sinking ship :(

Voted! Congrats on surviving the jam!

Developer

yeah ik it was so confusing cuz i planned there would be like guidelines or minimap but i didnt had time but thx bro your game is dang

Submitted(+1)

Cool idea, for a first game its awesome!

Developer

thx bro

Submitted(+1)

Nice game, controls are a bit clunky but it's a good game, especially for the first game jam :)

Developer

thx i will try soon to make it better btw nice game man for you too

Submitted(+1)

it's fun to play but kinda confusing!!!

Developer

yeah cuz literally everything looks similar and i didnt add a minimap or a rope to make your path :) yeah it was in my plans 

Submitted(+1)

That's good, i would be delighted if you check out my game and rate it!

Developer

yeah i done it just now anyaway good game tbh

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! Congrats on finishing and submitting your first Game Jam! I like the sound, but I wish there was a slider to adjust the volume (had to adjust my headset). My biggest complaint are the controls. Most of the time I'd get stuck on a wall which made navigating tight spaces very frustrating. Maybe reduce the collider size for the player? or better yet, allow the player to slide through walls?

Also, is the level procedurally generated or hand crafted? I noticed it's the same every run, but I'm curious if you hand placed everything or used some algorithm to generate it.

Developer(+1)

in my plans i wanted to make a procedural generation world but ik i can't because i didnt really have time so i just hand draw all this and because it's the first time i work with autotilemap i had to edit all missed parts (i missed some in the map) then i just done ctrl +c then ctrl+V in the tilemap and just turn it 90° :> and that how it worked ,i wanted to work on control to mak it easing in and out but it started glitching then i scarbed all this ideas and worked on the design btw thx for feedback and playng :)

Submitted(+1)

got it, thanks for the insight

Submitted(+1)

really fun, controls are kinda wonky tho

Developer

oh thanks ik controls but i will try to update it soon

Submitted(+1)

Fully honest, graphics are really bad haha xD But not looking at graphics, had fun during gameplay and that matters more for me. I didn't encounter any bugs but minor tweaks here and there would've been nice :p

Developer(+1)

yeah ik cuz i didnt take time in the art (graphic) it could be better if i added aquatic elements and some water shaders could be make the graphics looks more satisfyed but yeah that how it works anyway thx for playing

Submitted(+1)

great game! I lost diving around the map LOL! you did a great job!

Developer

thx bro

Submitted(+1)

The art is pretty good, I like it a lot. The controls feels weird to contrl, but are simple to understand. I can't see the shop very well, a better UI will help here because I didn't know if my tank upgraded or not. The teheme was very good as well, I liked the idea of diving into underwater caves.

Developer

thx Bro i Will Try to figuring out Howe to update itto bé better 

Submitted(+1)

pretty cook. Felt the controls were a little clunky but fun overall. The graphics looked good too. Theme was in there too. Well done 

Developer

thx Bro i tries to male an easing in control but It juste didnt work like i was thinking but yeah that It thx for playing 

Submitted(+1)

everything about this is game nice graphics simple controls and fun overall i do recommend adding a map because i kind of got lose but it still really fun and great overall!

Developer

yeah that the point but it didnt work very well for me i  wanted to make auto generation gold and losing your gold if your oxygene ends but yeah that how it works and thx for playing :3
