Subfathomable - a game about diving deep into an unknown cave system in search of your missing pet fish, armed only with slightly outdated scuba gear and your trusty harpoon minigun.

W/A/S/D to swim, space to shoot a harpoon that works as a grappling hook as well as a weapon.
The goal is to explore and get to the fishbowl before running out of oxygen.

Rough but fun little game that managed to crash my (arguably very old) laptop twice. I have no idea of what the goal is, but the character follows the mouse's angle and it can be really fun to mess with the character's position and actions. Clicking makes code appear for some reason and space shoots a yellow line. The oxygen depletes fast though

no doubts a lot of work was sunk (yep I did that...) into the main character's animations but I couldn't really experience anything else.

it feels like you had a problem on export:
- I didn't see any terrain (unlike the screenshot).
- a lot of lags for some reasons
- and the harpoon look like a debug gizmo (yellow line with red arrow for the hook)

BTW: it's tradition (and good practice) to publish your source with your entry ;)
