Based on the movie of the same name, but a lot less macho and a lot less atmospheric.
Dive down as deep as possible, but beware the exotic fish, as they will eat you. Remember, you have to have enough air to come back up or you will lose all your oxygen!
Arrow keys to move, space to move faster but lose air at a dramatic rate.
Can't start because openAL32.dll is missing from your computer. I found this dll (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/86120857/OpenAL32.dll) and put it next to MonkeyGame.exe The fish aren't spawning when you dive for me, it's just an empty ocean.
Okay I've fixed all the gamebreaking bugs and ported the game to Windows, Mac, and Web. Everyone, the game is open to try and critique and to laugh at cause it has my graphics.
Nice little game, its like submarine Frogger. Maybe difficulty could be more progressive ( less fishies at the beginning) and you could make some powerups to spice up the gameplay a bit :)
Hey this is pretty cool :]! I like the way the game gives you resource management challenges. You have to decide when to start resurfacing, when you try to navigate around fish instead of stopping for them, and when to use the space bar!
One issue I do have with the game are that the controls don't seem very intuitive? Or at least it confused me at first why up made me go down and left made me go right and right made me go left. It wasn't until I got to the resurfacing part that it become clearer to me. (That it's using steering controls). I think having some instructions in game would help a lot, for people like me who don't read game descriptions before trying them. (I didn't know you had to resurface at first, I thought you were just supposed to swim as deep as you could ;D).
Also, I didn't test it much, but is using the space bar beneficial? Or does it drain more air per distance?
I think it's pretty cute that the rainbow fish eat you :]!
Fun simple game, nice risk reward thing with having to decide when to resurface. Best score surviving:369m best depth without even trying to survive: 838m :P
Cool game. Graphics aren't that great (I do like the font tho), since it lacks animation and the fish are super saturated, but it's still a fun game to play.
-SPOILER- I grinned when I found out that I could *win* the game by going up. Nice feature. :p -SPOILER END-
I like the resurfacing aspect, its tricky to judge how far you can push yourself down before you have to turn back. It would be nice if there were more power-ups or something to add more variety.
