Had lots of fun playing this game! Eerie and atmospheric, plus some good scares! I do love me some nautical horror! Really nice visuals and sound design, too!
This was a pretty fun game! I wasn't expecting the enemy design to be what it was, but the atmosphere was great, it didn't last too long and overall had some great tense moments. Keep up the great work and can't wait to see what you do next!
Great little game, especially for a first project! Love games that explore the theme of underwater horror.
Wasn't sure if having the flashlight off helped being hidden from the enemy but it seemed to have worked as I wasn't found :D Otherwise had good atmosphere and got quite tense at the end, nice work!
This was pretty good. Definitely could use a checkpoint system so that when the player dies nearing the end, they don't have to restart the whole game. Overall, though this was good. Made a video on it.
Eerie and unsettling, the claustrophobic nature of being weighed down in the copper headed deep sea diving gear really immerses the player in the depths. There is an unnatural feeling of always being watched and the sounds were really immersive. Would have loved to have seen more and possibly come across notes and lore from the Intrepid Explorer - think there could have been a rich backstory of the fate of the crew and how the ship was actually sunk. Great indie game, looking forward to more in the future.
Pros:
Unsettling and claustrophobic vibe in the depths of the ocean - continually feel like you're being watched by an ethereal presence.
Although the format is simplistic (walk to here, grab this, come back) the tension is palpable with the reveal of the spider crab, ghost pirates and the ship itself.
Sound design is great
Don't walk off into the abyss!
Cons
Felt like some of the deaths were a little cheap (the pathway below the crate when the fish are after you should be highlighted a little easier)
Instead of sending the player all the way back to the start, maybe there could be a check point implemented?
Perhaps the lanterns could be replaced with some kind of bio luminance fish life - would the Intrepid Explorer's lanterns still be lighted underwater after it had sunk? Trivial side note though
This was awesome! You really nailed the immersion and overall atmosphere. The "old school scuba-helmet"-POV really made a big difference. Great job and looking forward to more stuff from you.
Holy goddamn shit I love this little gem. I would love to see a full feature of this, with enemies,more lore and large creatures. Love the art and atmosphere
Hey I really enjoyed this! There really should be more underwater horror games, its a niche not very well explored. It took me a while to complete because I was finding it difficult to navigate in the dark during the final "event", and also I'm an idiot.
Hi BrownPants, thank you for your feedback, I really appreciate it! It's weird that it's getting flagged, as it's a copyright free sound, but i'll look into it and perhaps change it for a different one.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! And yeah the flashlight does nothing... or does it? ( ͡o ͜ʖ ͡o)
