Persephone

Persephone is an adventure game where you must escape the underworld.

CONTROLS:
Space: Swim upwards
W: Move away from camera
S: Move towards camera
A: Move left
D: Move right

I wish I could have gotten this a bit more polished up by the deadline, but it is what it is. This was my first time making a truly 3D game and I learned that yes, in fact, controls aren't easy. I'm mostly upset I didn't get controls taught in-game.

UPDATE: fixed a gamebreaking bug, and adjusted the level a bit.

Is there a way to use the key once you get it?

You go back under and the dood tells you there is the key, I kept jumping out the water and dying, good game though

Nice music, felt weird when I was out of the water. I really likes the mix between 8-bit graphics and 3D ones.

Love the general atmosphere and music, very immersive. Gameplay is interesting and I enjoyed it, maybe controls are a little hard to master at first but nothing to worry about. Great use of the theme IMO.

Very nice atmosphere. I loved the soul in the river styx conception. I never found out what to do after getting the pomegranite though; it sucks, because I was genuinely interested in what was going to happen next. The controls we a bit difficult at times though. Good game

Kudos for the innovative gameplay! I would have liked the light ball to be a bit faster, and also a bit more work on the ending. Other than that, the ambiance, music, and everything overall made this an enjoyable experience!
