I reached the end. It isn't very clear in terms of what you have to do, you see the borders of the map and also there are weird cuts here and there, although the idea was pretty unique, and the the music and ambience were its strong points.
Great atmosphere, nice use of lighting and a very calming soundtrack. This game has a great mood and the current concept fits the jellyfish quite well, it would be nice to have this current be visualized somehow (for example via the particles flowing). Some indicator of where to go would also be nice, it's stated in the description but you could use the glowing jellyfish thingies to guide the player (or something similar). I really dig the overall vibe though, great job!
@synapse316 Thank you for your love. Go right because the jellyfish are weak and will be blown to the right by the waves. Hold the space and you can swim left
@utopia Thank you! In the end, We want to express that although the weak jellyfish swam so far, it was actually brought to the surface by the whale, showing contrast and reversal
So I got to a point where I wasnt moving anymore and thought I hit a glitch so I got bummed. Then when I tried to exit and couldnt I realized my keyboard died XD So I got to play more haha. Music is beautiful.
I think a file is broken, because it needed to be renamed for the game to work for me. Otherwise, the game is pretty chill and relaxing, but its pretty unclear where to go, or how to play while in the game.. Still, I managed to find my way to the end but I had to wander around a little bit. Still, well done!
Worked well when I finally realized that you need to keep pressing space to go left. Was smooth sailing afterwards. Nice backgrounds and calming music. Love the lighting and the small particles in the water. Was also happy to make it to the end. ❤
Very peaceful game, I really enjoyed the experience! The path is a bit tricky to understand, maybe you could add some background elements on the left side of the starting screen to guide the player? A little more feedback while interacting with the algae/plankto could make the difference as well :) Great job anyways, that's a very cool jam game!
It's nice how atmospheric, comfy, and relaxing your game is. I enjoy the particles and pulsating lighting effects. The music is also beautiful and contributes greatly to the serene atmosphere.
I didn't realize at first that I could collect the green circles after moving through one of the other circles that don't seem to do anything. So I just went all the way to the left until I hit a wall of colourful shapes. Then moved up through what seemed to be the water surface. But I didn't find anything so I went back, to discover that I could actually collect the green circles and that they'd push me back left again when collecting them. Nevertheless I persevered and collected all of them. I was a little let down by nothing happening afterwards but it's fine. Just thought writing down my experience might be somewhat helpful and interesting from a dev perspective. Nice submission
@yaen Thank you!The guidance of the route is indeed flawed. When swimming to the end of the upper left, the animation played wants to express a reversal of the whale bringing the jellyfish to the surface, after all, tiny is actually a relative concept
