Depths: From the Crust to the Core

I wasn't expecting an educational game, great job!

Initially, I loved the idea. The sound suddenly kicking in and changing as you got deeper, the particles moving with the rock getting hotter, the factoids. However, the further you go, a few things happen. It starts to get pretty tedious with the scroll being your only interaction and the vast distances making the factoids that eventually drop off all together make the experience feel a bit unsatisfying. I do have, however, an even greater appreciation for how we live on the skin of an onion, though! Great effort.

Cool idea, ground textures look very cool! The sound was a surprise and was cool at first but as time went it started getting a little too annoying, but great concept.

Thanks. I learned something, got rickrolled, and my index finger is now ripped as Arnold Schwarzenegger. Cool concept for the game, and a good way to physically feel (from a lot of scrolling) that vastness of the core. I also liked that amplified sensations of the unknown with less and less facts showing while drilling deeper.

We need more games/experiences like this. Love this a lot. I would definitely like a button or way to just automove to the next section. Great job and great idea too.

Wow! Never thought scrolling through dirt for 10 minutes will be more entertaing than scrolling through social medea. Very original, good job!

This was unexpected and very cool!

Rumbling sound was nice. The liquid core texture hurt my eyes while scrolling.

Very informational :)

never tough about making a interactive educational game like that. Interesting idea.

Funny game and unexpected too! I will say though, the liquid core texture really was a bit hard on the eyes and ambient low volume music in the background would compliment the rumbling sound nicely too

I adhere to the words of @fikusm9, it was surprisingly entertaining, nice work keeping the interest, that information about large low velocity provinces blow my mind. longest rickroll ever

You thought you'd hide it from us eh?

This was a cool experience! Just shows how one can expect anything from an LD game. This is a kr4ft-speciale if you ask me! Some of your games don't have a win/loose condition, and that makes it fresh. I learned a lot and laughed a lot too! I sure hope for you no geologists are among us indeed ;p

A little feedback: the text on top said "scroll down to start", so I did CTRL+END to go all the way down, expecting the start to be there. Then Half of the game I was like: what is that gray bar at the left? And then I realized that there should be a little dude keeping you company while going down :sweat_smile: So I restarted it

How did you make this? It is pure HTML with a little CSS I suppose? Did you use some crazy software like ExpressionWeb 4 or something?

Very nice! It reminds me of the educational Flash games my middle (and occasionally high) school would have us play to "get the kids into science." Nice little nostalgia trip, and unlike back then I actually learned something! I like that you committed to keeping things to scale with the endless scroll also, nice visualizer.

So Simple, but I love it

I did not know that Rick Astley and the Star Wars Kid lived in earth's core before this game.

You should've added outlines to the text as it is hard to read in certain places.

Truly a unique game, and a lot of fun. All one has to do is turn the mouse wheel. Who can complain?

The whole time I was very eager to find out what was at the bottom. Turns out it was — Justin Bieber? or Rick Astley? Is that what happened to them? I should have known. Anyway, I wonder if this was a descent into the depths of the unconscious... or a mixture of earth and imagination. I never knew what to expect. I especially liked the LLVPs. Top score for humor and theme — a solid entry (pun intended). Well done, Sir.

About halfway through, but still i stopped using the mouse wheel to scroll.I had a rather interesting and unusual experience. it was pretty exciting at first.
