How does your game fit the theme?
It does this by using a timer that counts down second by second.

I really liked the game! a tad too difficult for me, but great game!
Ty so much for playing :DDd
difficulty needs a little tweaking, but well done!
sorry if it's difficult i didn't have time to test it srry ;( ty for playing anyways :DDD
To answer your question, this game was probably too hard. I only managed to find 2 people and I couldn't find a rescue point. Not having anything to guide you towards survivors meant I was just wandering aimlessly. The water effects and ambiance were nice though and it felt claustrophobic and stressful. I also liked the intro segment and the tutorial at the beginning being given over the phone was a nice touch.
The reset button also didn't reset the timer for me so it just immediately ran out again.
srry ik it has so many bugs, i didn't have that much to play it and even less to fix bugs or gameplay, sorry, anyways thanks fro the feedback :DDD
I like the oxygen countdown idea, its really unique.
Ty :DDD
I really loved the theme of the game—it genuinely makes you feel the pressure! The water effect adds a really nice extra touch to the atmosphere. I did notice one small issue: when restarting, the timer stays at 0 instead of resetting. Other than that, it was a really fun and enjoyable game.
Yeah, i couldnt fix that bug before submiting the game, sorry for that, Anyways ty for playing :DDDDD
Lovely game, I just wish it had some sound, like it doesn't have to be music, just sfx or smth. But still very cool!
It has music, sound effects, and a few ambient sounds. I'm not sure if it's a bug, but I'm pretty sure I added audio. xddd
Oh well I didn't hear anything. I played on chrome in windows if that helps...
That's weird. I just tested it, and the audio is working fine for me. It might be an issue on your end. xddd
Nice concept! It was super hard to get my bearings, though. I think the vignette is a bit too strong (or a kind of discoverable minimap could help). Managed to save 2 people, but I don't think they needed me (they can clearly breathe underwater haha).
xdddd, bcs the game was made only by me it was really dificult to add the minimap, i wanted to but i didn't have the time :DDDD ty for playing
The atmosphere, audio, and shaders are all really well done. Sadly I ran out of oxygen before I could find anyone.
xdddd its pretty difficult xd, ty for playing :DDD
I like the concept of the game: using oxygen as a “timer” to force you to count the seconds of air between pockets of safety. Nice touch with using the wavy water effect on the screen, it really sold the feeling of being underwater. And the first time my light flickered out gave me actual chills! Good game!
ty so much for playing it :DDDD i hope you enjoyed it :D
Running out of oxygen as your "countdown" was a pretty unique idea, good job! Level felt a little too long though, I found myself getting kind of bored, wish everything was cutdown just a little bit, would probably have made the game easier to swallow, yes, pun intended!
actually there are 2 count downs but ty :DDDDD, and srry if the game is to long or boring i didn't have that much time to play it, ty anyways :DDD
Really interesting take on the theme. It was definitely hard, but also fun. Voice acting is a welcome surprise though! Well done!
ty so much bro :DDDD
Wow, the atmosphere is really cool, I watched some breakdowns of rescuers commenting on rescues in such caves and this game actually brought up this unsettling feeling that I felt from the descriptions. Great job! I found two guys and tried to save them both, and died in the process :D
The retry mechanism is broken btw. Fun experience.
:DDD Ty bro, Really appreciate it and what do you mean by the retry mechanism is broken? What's the issue?
I ran out of time and the game ended, when I clicked retry the timer showed 0 and the game ended right away, I tried again and same thing happened.
oooh, im so sorry, i didn't have that much time to play it and even less time to debug it, ty for telling me :DDD
