To The Depths
This was a submission for the 2023 Lv 99 game jam. The jam's theme was "Take a Breath". A pretty simple game I will admit, but hey I'm mostly here to learn :D
The goal of the game is to reach the surface before your air meter runs out. There are pockets of air in the rock ceiling occasionally that can be used to refill on air. Watch out for creatures of the deep.
The game uses the arrow keys for controls.

I think the simplicity of this experience makes it really engaging. Good job!
Glad to hear it, thanks for playing!
man, how'd he even end up there
So I was going to do this cutscene showing how he got dragged down by a giant squid or fish or something...but I ran out of time for that XD
Was really fun! I liked the swimming animation.
Some seaweed sprites would add a lot to the atmosphere with the dark organ in the background!
Thanks! That means a lot!
And yeah...there were a ton of ideas I wanted to do to add to the atmosphere that I ended up cutting. Ah well, the more you learn.
