A short, fun little horror game. I always enjoy a decent nautical setting, and this one had its decent moments.

I felt like I went into the sea, so I was really immersed in it

Thanks for playing!
I'm sorry to hear that.
Can you tell me more about your PC spec? When the game is crashing, etc.
Any info is appreciated for us to be able to fix it!
Hmm, strange. May I ask what OS you use? (Windows/Linux)? Your graphic card, and memory RAM?
Need to find out exactly what makes you unable to launch the game

I though this cage was to protect me from the sharks. Not the floating limbs or my boss!

Gracias por probar nuestro juego.
Really great game! didnt know what to expect but exceeded my expectations, super fun!
thanks for playing our game
I died on first playthrough. I did manage to figure out how to find some artifacts and one of them even did a bit of a jumpscare with a big face coming at me. Also think I saw some swimmers under water? How'd they get there?Anyway didn't see my oxygen level or how to monitor so I died on the way up.
Anyway, pretty good game - I would suggest you add some sounds to the first room before getting in the elevator and also add some kind of a dot or pointer indicator to know what we're looking at.
Thank you for playing the game! I'll see what I can do.
The oxygen level not an UI, but showed as pointer on the bottom left of the screen. You can see on the 5th screenshot that there are meter thingy that follow you around on the bottom left of the screen. Hope that helps!
Amazing game, but i have a question. can you add please a mouse sensitivity slider? the sensitivity is slow
And I wish to add save game feautre to not replay the game when we want to got another ending
Thanks for playing!
This is something that requested often. The game is very short so It doesn't warrant save and load system, but let me see what I can do to update it.
Things That I Liked :
1.Visuals
2.Clean Main Menu
3.The Idea Itself
4.Character Movement
Things That Should Be Improved :
1. The Execution Of The Idea
2.Sound Effects
3.Horror Element
4.Jump Scares
5.Performance (This Game Ran At Like 30FPS)
6.Dialogue
I'd Give This Game A 7/10
It's Not Bad But Not Great
Conclusion :
Okay Game With A Promising Idea That Has A Lot Of Room To Be Improved
Performance Fixing Suggestions :
1.The Game Runs Just Fine Until That Full Screen Water Shader Is Present So Use Another One Or Lower The Viewport's Resolution To Make It Less Demanding
2.Use "Viewport" Stretch Mode In Project Settings
3.Use Baked Lighting, Occlusion Culling And Other General Performance Tricks
Thanks for the detailed feedbacks and improvement, really appreciate it!
Glad i can help! Good luck with your game dev journey
hey i really enjoyed the game and made a video about it (with all endings) ! check it out
Thanks for your game and please, keep it up!
can anyone beat my time? 5 minutes the true ending lmao
Thanks for playing!
5 minutes is really fast. Will try to topple it soon :D
Good Luck with that! hahahaha,
looking foward for your next creation!
Thanks!
