This was too hard, but I really *wanted* to be good at it. I kept playing even after I figured out that I'd never make any progress. Graphics are superior. The player as a bear is random + cute = winner. If you had more than a weekend to work on it, I'd like to see a clearer indication of where the toolkits instantiate. Part of my mobility snag was that I instinctively wanted to use Z to jump, but I can see why you reserved Z for all the other things it does.

@wrenpirate Thank you for your feedback! Good point about Z instinctively being a jump button. I also tried to jump with Z many times, but I didn't realise that was because it was in my muscle memory from other games.

The art is really nice and cute! For me, I fell off ladders a lot because I instinctively use UP to climb ladders heheh

This might be very morbid but I especially liked how the bear floats up when drowning :)

A really nice game!
The bear and his animations are really great!
Also the idea with the submarine is great. :)

I wish you great success!

I love the concept! The game is too hard though, it would be nice if you could have repair kit closets, so you could always grab one somewhere. Ladders are also a bit hard to use, you should be able to grab them in air. The art is nice.

Lovely background, nice animations, cute bear - would have preferred it if mounting ladders were the arrow keys too, that'll be more intuitive :)

good concept and art is nice but a bit hard to play. would like some indications of where the leaks are when you cant see them.
