How does your game fit the theme?
It is about cave diving, where you dive deeper and deeper underwater, and underground.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I used my previous menu system for the main menu, settings, etc. All gameplay was coded without reuse or assistance from AI. All art and audio was made during the jam with the assistance of AI, see the credits for the details.

Nice game, and the narrator aid is very helpful. Visuals are good as well.

Hey, i rlly like the idea behind this game. However, it was unplayable for me, as the starting air went out absolutly fast. Can swim for around 10 seconds. Or maybe i just dont understand, how to get more air? 

Graphics and audio seems fitting for me, liked them! 

Will further play this, once it is playable for me, or i understand the mechanics better, maybe you can help me out :D

You have to swim straight down to the ring that has the particles coming out, then back to the surface.  After that you get a lot more air to explore with.

Ahh, okay. Thanks for the clarification!

Once you look past the slowish controls, this is a fun game. Especially the voice narration is a cool addon which I don't understand why now more game jam games do that. And yes, we also didn't have the time for it - So great work fitting it in ;)

I can imagine this being quite a relaxing game. However, I could notice some sprites clipping and the swimming speed was just too slow... Also, I'm not really a huge fan of AI voice, I think writing the text would have been fine too. Overall, good idea, but needs a bit of work.

Nice casual game. Got a bug that I didn't get my breath after the first part...

Wow, this game was awesome! Loved the art, loved the music, and loved the narration. There wasn't anthying I didn't like about the game however sometimes Steph would get stuck in small holes (Look at screenshot) and I couldn't move out, but other than that, the game was great! Loved it!

This was cute. I love that it was based on your wife's work, that's really sweet. I thought the art and little easer egg critters were adorable, and I thought the educational aspect was cool. My main criticisms are that the AI voice often couldn't finish what it was saying before the next bit of text started playing, the screen going black on hitting walls was frustrating, and the way turning works made me get stuck in tight spots a few times, which was kinda annoying. Overall though, I liked this :)

Game was okay. Just did not grab me. The art is okay. The music is decent. Just the game play felt slow and not what I was thinking.

Pretty nice educational game, I just wish the distance from one point to another where she starts speaking would be bigger so she can actually finish what she was saying if it makes sense

Voted! Good job =)

This felt less like a game and more like a walking (or I guess swimming) sim honestly. I liked that it tried to be educational but it felt like that made it less fun as a result. The ai voice was not that great honestly as it felt bland and kind of stale. The art while decent was kind of a mix mash of styles and felt didn't feel like it belonged together. I am not going to go into my own views of ai generated imagery but that may have also affected how I viewed the art but even ignore that I still think it didn't fit still. The games ok but I honestly didn't enjoy it as much as I originally hoped.

I liked how you based your game of your wife cave diving experience.  The art looks great but there was a weird outline around the character. Great Submission!
