Sadly, i was unable to know if I was a pro at finding some glitches or if the mover was...let's say, challenging.
I loved the idea and the effect, though. Still GG guys!

Echo locator is a really clever interpretation of the theme. It was an interesting experience, I enjoyed it.

I had to play it a couple of times because on the first playthrough I got lost into the abyss. I like the slow paced nature of the game, but in I think it would help if players have some more interaction. I got the same ending twice, I am not sure if there are multiple endings - I figured I could use try to use my harpoon at the spot, but it takes so long to get there.

Such a creative take on the theme, props to you guys! The graphics looked really cool, but I did struggle to get moving and around and shooting harpoons. I think the pacing in the game was very good, so well done!!!

Very very interesting interpretation and very good mood, didn't understand the gameplay at all however

Good mood. At some point something pushed me and I had trouble finding my way back, but was part of my interest. Nice entry.

Nice company name intro, gave me a laugh. Well executed take on the theme I love how it reveals the underwater caves and movement of the kelp as you descend. Audio for the echo-locator was done very very well. Great all-around!

Super atmospheric and mysterious, pretty scary as well. I liked the dialogue and how it prevented the slow-paced exploration from getting boring. Controls were a little difficult and not being able to look up or down was rough, but at least the game didn't require too much skilled movement. A few times I lost control of the submarine and fell to the floor and didn't know why. I found "I AM EVERYTHING", don't know if there's more endings or a use for harpoons.
