You play a drone that must reach the bottom of the ocean to find a priceless treasure.

Avoid sea urchins, eels and algae that want to block your way to your future fortune.

Thanks for participating in the jam!

This was a really solid entry. I liked the amount of optional instructions you can get before starting, some people want to read and some people just want to figure it out.

I thought all the graphics were of a similar style and looked coherent.

The music and sound was also fitting with the graphical style and the gameboy-esque setup of the game.

I did have trouble using some of the pickup items, unsure if that was a bug or I was just doing it wrong.

Not the most innovate of games but was a fun arcade style game to check out. Nice work!

Good game feel. The swaying of the drone was worth it.

Interesting game! While the ocean theme seems to be a bit overdone this jam, you make up for that with great style and visuals! Good game overall!

This was a fun one. I loved the look of it. Very retro LED game looking, though it played like a modern game. I appreciated the different kinds of obstacles that did different things. I was disappointed that you didn't have w,a,s,d though. Also I wasn't sure what the pick ups did other than the speed.

Was able to cheat a bit after a couple of unlucky tries. Some abilities can't handle two mines that are close to each other. Overall it was fun and challenging! Nice ending tho! ʸᵒᵘ ᵇᵃˢᵗᵃʳᵈˢ :smile:

Pretty fun, but I feel like the player's hitbox is too big. I like the music!
