A simple yet enjoyable game that combines resource management with combat. Fast decision-making is essential for survival. While the theme of "diving deeper" could be more integrated, it offers a fun and challenging experience.

Nice game, simple but fun! I like the resource-management combined with the combat. You have to make fast decisions to stay alive. One nitpick is that it you're not really "diving deeper", although you are falling. There is no incentive to go down and the game doesn't progress by going deeper.

Harpoon Hunter (Brackeys 2023.2)Had a plenty fun playing it!! almost reached zero :o
I felt that the float control was a little uncomfortable to use.
Good work!!

DiveCipherNice game and concept. I do wish however than when you use the shield for it to knockback some of the enemies so that you don't get trapped, but still cool game!

The Deep Descentnice concept. controls are a bit too tight. didn really have motivation to go deep, could stay upp and kill everything. great ambience and art

UNDERWATER TOURAt first I found it some what complicated, but once you understand the mecanics is really fun, reminded me to some old flash games, I think is nice that you added a lot of controls and bars, but it can be too much for some people, also I would like better to have a downward thrust instead of the floating but I loved the side dash, added some deep to the movement, great job!

HowDeepCanYouGetgood solid first effort. needs something to give it a sense of "speed" when you're about to burn up (and then one quick burst with the thrusters stops all of your descent?). solid little game.

evie and junoGreat game! Cool art style for the background of the planet! I like how you can't go too fast or you'll burn up - it adds a realistic touch. Overall I didn't find the game challenging enough since the energy regenerated too fast and there was really no need for me to collect the barrels. Other than that, well done!

Deep Dumpster DivingI loved the sounds. The gameplay was very tough, but I liked having different controls of a space ship.
