I really enjoyed this experience, the visuals and atmosphere were great from the get go but it really bumped up a level when the music kicked in. Nicely done!

Nicely done, a mesmerizing experience! A little unsettling at first. I think it's mainly the fog and not knowing what's coming, though I think the heavy fog probably adds to the experience overall, because you focus more on the sounds when you can't see anything. One nit is not being able to do a full loop since the mouse only goes fully around in a vertical direction, like FPS controls. I wonder if you tried flight controls? Anyway, good stuff!

Great atmosphere because of the soundtrack and minimalistic world design

Submitted

Fantastic vibes! Love the audio and visual design, really makes you want to spend some time chillin out in the ocean. Also reminds me of Superman 64 (but better!)

Submitted

The atmosphereis on point ! between the sound design and the minimalistic graphics, it felt incredibly peaceful (the special encounter did feel a bit intimidating - don't think its a bad thing though)

This is very beautiful! The music really adds depth to the game, and I enjoyed every second of it! I found the special encounter without even using the speaker! Was curious and touched it :P and it seemed very cute! So I initially was confused at what the bar below was about... The suddenly got "jumpscared" by the black whale lol. overall a really beautiful game! I also tried running out of bounds, but it seems I just got teleported back :(

Really enjoyed the atmosphere of this, and the music was relaxing. The special encounter, initially scared me 馃槀 after I realized what it was, it went straight back to being chill. Good work!

Very cool game! I enjoyed the movement,it really does feel as if you are swimming. Graphics are amazing, however sometimes player character blends in with other white objects.

It's a very atmospheric and beautiful game, but the 2D microphone arrow in the 3D game is very confusing.

thank you for playing! 馃檹馃徎 yes I need to iterate on the sonar system

I got completely absorbed in the game, what an experience! It had the most immersive atmosphere I've ever seen. The character's design is very successful, and the peaceful background music is a superb choice. Even without keeping score, it's a game you can explore in peace. Absolutely great job.

I really like the visuals, I didn't even know you could do something like this in the browser... 

Seeing the whale for the first time reminded me of playing Subnautica.

thank you a lot 馃檹馃徎 I really have to try Subnautica it is a classic !

I find myself somewhere in the ocean, receiving divine inspiration about what to do next, and follow my sonar into the depths - only to get smacked around by sharks. But my speaker doesn't just take, it also gives. First, small halos to collect, and then even a friendlier encounter than a shark.

A truly wonderful, meditative underwater experience! The performance in the browser was a bit sluggish at first, but quickly smoothed out after a few seconds.
