How does your game fit the theme?
Well Diver is a dungeon diving puzzle solver set on a drowning world. The player must dive into the world well each day to solve puzzles in order to prevent the world from drowning completely.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
My dev partner and I created every asset used in this game except the water sound effect used in the dungeon levels. I did created the game in Unity, used Aseprite to create the pixel art, and Garageband for the music. The water sound effect was found on freesound.org and listed under the creative commons license, created by Nox_Sound.

The fact that you just casually programmed a random maze generator to act as filler content while you work on the final game is both incredible and hilarious.

Great art style, soundtrack, and mechanics.

Looking forward to the full game!

lol thanks! I appreciate that.

The Game Looks very WELL(hahaha) built but I couldn't get past the inside part of the well the boxes kept disappearing but still looks like a great game. Good job

Submitted

Great work on this, I like the assets and the puzzles are fun.

Developer

Thank you!

Very cool art and atmosphere in general.

Developer

Thank you!

For some reason, in the 1st level, all crates except for one of them gets TP'd back to their original spots when I push them on the buttons. Although I can't get past the level, this still is indeed a cool game


EDIT: When I saw an older comment on this game, I realized it's that I have to put the crates in specific places. Well, you can at least state that in the description.

Now on the 2nd level, my brain turned off

Developer

If I had to state that in the description, it wouldn't be a puzzle! Thanks for playing. :)

I do like the music. It fits quite well. The graphics are appealing, not outstanding from the rest. The movement could be less clumsy, I didn't like being stopped by some wall corner, but overall, very nice game You've got!

Submitted

Quite fun, I did not understand the first level in the beginning so I had to check back on the comments to understand what was going on. Art and music are on point, well done!

Submitted

Also I found that tinny interaction with the "exit the well" glow :)

Submitted(+1)

Fun game! The pixel art looks great! The random maze after the first level was a great way to keep the game going even if you didn't have time for levels.

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Very glad to see that you recognize that :) 

Submitted

Really cool puzzle game, I must say that these mazes were really hard, they just got harder and harder lol. Jokes aside I really liked the game, cool graphics, cool atmosphere cool puzzles, well done!

Developer

thanks for playing!

Submitted

I like the concept!

Things I enjoyed ✔️

  1. The art style is nice and minimalist!
  2. The music is great! It really suits the vibe of the game!
  3. The gameplay is nice and intuitive!

Things I would like to possibly see with your title. 🤷‍♂️

  1. Id recommend having an incorrect or buzz sound effect, when you place the box in the wrong place because I thought the game was breaking. 😅
  2. Having some polish on sound effects is about it, like a moving box sound that plays.

Overall 📓

Great job on this game! I cant wait for it to be fully done! I wanted to play this one for awhile, and I am happy I did! Great work on this game!

Developer

Thanks for playing, and thanks for the recommendations! Already working on them. :)

I thought the box disappearing was a glitch until the comments said otherwise. pretty clever though it would've benefited from a negative feedback sound effect of some sort so the player understands that more. The infinite maze idea was neat after. more levels would be welcome but I understand it's a game jam and there has to be limits. very fun cute game I enjoyed it. 

Developer

Thanks for playing! Glad you recognized the limitations of the jam, and thanks for the suggestions!

 When I saw the first puzzle I think this is the best puzzle game in jam. But then, all I need to do is just finding button and press it. During 3-4 levels it was like only press the button and open the door. So that made me sad. But other than that movement, idea, music and art was cool.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I ran out of time, so only the first level is really polished. I've improved it since the submission period ended, though, and there are more fun puzzles now. But I can't share until after the rating period is over. :) 

Submitted(+1)

So I'll look again your game after the jam end then :)

Developer

Thanks!

I liked the designs

But why Slow player movement

Developer(+1)

Thanks! There was an issue with my movement code that I've since fixed, but some PCs have very slow movement while others experience normal movement.

Cute character and funny music)

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted(+1)

Cute  little character, and lovely animation, ace music too! Would have loved some little splashing sfx as he moved through the water :) to make me feel immersed down the well :)

Developer(+1)

I wanted to implement that but ran out of time! Thanks for playing, I appreciate it. 

Submitted(+1)

The character movement is so smooth! I loved it

Developer

Thanks for playing and glad you loved it!

Interesting concept and a good starting point.

Developer

Thanks! I'm excited to keep developing it. 

Submitted(+1)

Neat little game, liked the characted animations :) only the movement felt a bit slow

Developer

Thank you! Others have mentioned the slow movement, and I found the issue that's causing it in some devices, so it's fixed now.

Good game I love the twist on the theme like diving deeper in a well. I also love the music. One feedback I would like to give is that the puzzles were a bit too confusing the first puzzle kind of came down to guessing/trial and error usually with the first puzzle of a game it's supposed to teach the player how the game works. Other than that it was a very well made game good job!.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I made everything from scratch so I appreciate the note about the music. The first puzzle is definitely not going to be the first puzzle in the final game, but it's what I made for the jam. There are a few hints baked into the level if you look deep enough though!
