Amazing puzzle game. The level design is awesome and the puzzle mechanics are really challenging. Loved the way how you eased in the player with simple levels to understand the mechanics and then gave a harder level with those mechanics.
Great job!
The puzzle design is really well thought out, especially for a simple mechanic. Just a solid game all around
This a solid entry ! It's tricky, but in a good and satisfying way ! Great job !
I liked the fact that the level is way bigger than the puzzle itself, added a lot to the mood.
Nice! The added level of popping oxygen to gain your 'moves' back was a nice little twist on a classic. Also, loved the look!
I love the art the game has a really good look all around to be honest. I also like that you have a bunch of moving or animated things in the levels adding some motion and stuff. The music is also great, very chill and fitting for the game. I also really liked how you do the puzzles, especially when you add the other fish managing the movement of multiple fish at the same time is fun puzzle wise. Anyway, you guys did great this is an awesome game.
I managed to beat it! There definitely are some hard puzzles, but each one is creative and clever. The game looks great, and the audio is nice and relaxing.
The only problem I had was (and I don't know if this is a feature) but sometimes the diver moves out of sync with the damsel.
Really relaxing puzzles! Well done
Very clever and chill. The music creates a great atmosphere and the puzzles are really well done. I don't always love sokoban games but this one is a lot of fun. I sort of wish there was an Undo button instead of a full reset, but the puzzles were usually quick enough it didn't make a huge difference. (also heads up it didn't work in Firefox for me and I had to switch to Chrome)
Nice little sokoban game. Good package where everything fits together. The theme obviously made me think of Spongebob plankton.
It wasn't clear to me from Level 3 that the popping give me more air so i struggled in level 4 - little animation of the bubbles, music chime, green effect on bubbles UI would have helped. Alas once I knew it wasn't a problem, so maybe just a tut message. Level 5 and so on were great balance and varied.
Really would have liked an undo button.
also came out before The Order of the Sinking Star so you the superior Sokoban
Good vibes
Cute art style and sound/music, congratulation on making it yourself during the jam! Always love a good sokoban game and this one is really well designed!
Such a chill, relaxing Sokoban. The music and art create a really cool atmosphere that aim a big fan of. and the levels play with the mechanic really well in my opinion. Just a really well designed and executed game, great!
Another mind-bending water-themed jam game with killer music from Zucchini?
Really enjoyed this one - the vibes are great and the level design has a few of those crucial moments where it seems impossible, but then you get that sweet hit of dopamine when you think about it differently and solve it. The only thing I feel like I missed was an undo button, but the levels aren't too long so doesn't take too long to redo stuff whenever I lost.
All told, great entry guys, congrats! :)
love it!!! its so simple but so fun and zen. i especially love the music, its so ambient and relaxing
Good puzzle game! I really like the level design for this game. The art is fantastic. Great work!
A solid, tight well made game with interesting but fair puzzles and incorporation of the theme. I have to admit I threw in the towel on level 12, but the fact you were able to make so many interesting levels in such a short time frame is incredible. I loved the manta ray!
Really simple concept but it's challenging enough to make me play for a while.
A pretty well put together Sokoban, which a very pleasing artstyle and interesting mechanics that result in good puzzles! Something I noticed while playing: you can see beyond the metal bars on the top and bottom of the screen when in fullscreen.
Glad you ilked! I found out that was a thing yesterday watching a friend play it, it has to do with having a monitor besides 1920x1080 I think? I really need to look into that stuff in the future since I truly have no idea where I'd even begin fixing something like that lol.
Might look into it as well
I have seen quite a few sokkoban-type puzzles this jam, but the limited moves and the bubble system here really make it stand out. Good job
Nice game! My favourite levels were 7 and 9, completing those made me feel proud of myself, LOL. Good job
