Dunno how to play multiplayer, sadly. :C Tried solo, not bad at all, but my character got stucked in a forever sliding animation after, well, slide. Somewhat requires polish, but this game have nice vibe. Can't say much about overall experience without multiplayer tho.

Visuals are simply amazing. A+. I wasn't able to grasp the gameplay though. It's a pity because I get the feeling that the mechanics and the controls can actually give original and cool interactions, but I could not play it. Still, great presentation.

The graphics are amazing, but I couldn't really figure out the gameplay either :/

Visuals look amazing. I played solo, and I think that this might be a lot more fun co-op, but overall it felt too easy I think?

I liked the boss at the end but after -1300 meters the boss kept climbing downward next to me not attacking. I waited in the center of the screen collecting more and more health until it hit -2400m and at this point nothing had changed so I stopped playing.

I can't help but feel like I was missing something, maybe a second player would have helped.

I also thought the overall theme and mood were on point! Loved the feeling of going deeper and deeper!

Awesome visuals, but I did not understand what I was supposed to do when I encountered the plant thing. I just dodged its projectiles endlessly without effort :P

I liked a lot, i just got stucked in the slide animation at some point, i loved the graphics, sounds and the idea too.

I played solo and I dont know if I played it right, because it kinda was too easy? I dodged and it felt like it didnt matter if I killed a Monster with my connection thingy or if I just kept moving. The visuals and music were great though and Ill try it again with a friend tomorrow :)
