I assume few folks will actually finish this, but I did bother to save it off so I figured I might as well spend a couple more minutes to make it actually display!"},{"author_name":"DustyStylus","author_uid":"15902","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 8:10pm","epoch":1398715500,"text":"I saw this in a screenshot earlier in LD and had to hunt it out!

But overall probably the best so far."},{"author_name":"snickersnacks","author_uid":"36844","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 3:28am","epoch":1398741780,"text":"Love the effective use of monochrome &amp; color, really nice game to look. I think it would feel better to move around if, because of the weight and enormousness of the monster we're playing as, it didn't move so quickly. The mechanics feel like there's no drag from being underwater, like physics doesn't apply to us. Really great game, a joy to play!"},{"author_name":"kidder","author_uid":"21304","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 3:31am","epoch":1398741960,"text":"This is awesome."},{"author_name":"Cambrian_Man","author_uid":"4198","time":"Apr 29, 2014 @ 3:53am","epoch":1398743280,"text":"Pretty cool, I had a lot of fun playing it. The mood works well and the four-tentacle thing was cool.

I loved how you could go from shallow to deep. Very stylish! Cool under water reflection effect too.

Everything exploding when thrown was funny, but a bit odd.

It's pretty hard to catch the torpedo but throwing them back to your enemies is satisfying.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>But why destroyed Submarine still launch torpedos ? It could be nice if you can use them as weapon by desactivating the tracking on torpedos. Certainly too much crazyness considering the overall mood of the game. :)"},{"author_name":"zillix","author_uid":"2460","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 4:13am","epoch":1398830880,"text":"incredibly immersive! it was a lot of fun, if a bit too easy."},{"author_name":"mimic","author_uid":"34130","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 6:23am","epoch":1398838680,"text":"Awesome water effects!"},{"author_name":"Chinchilla","author_uid":"5017","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 7:53am","epoch":1398844080,"text":"859s... I got pretty good at catching torpedoes towards the end :). I think all games should probably feature whales as anti-missile countermeasures from this point onwards.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The controls need a bit more physical presence, i.e. inertia and a perhaps particle effects to convey speed. Otherwise pretty good. A bit on the easy side, but its usually safer to make things easy in a game jam so that people actually play your game through :)"},{"author_name":"orangepascal","author_uid":"12805","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 8:27am","epoch":1398846120,"text":"Like the feeling the game gives, really felt like the hunter :)"},{"author_name":"Catman","author_uid":"11589","time":"Apr 30, 2014 @ 8:26pm","epoch":1398889260,"text":"Been looking forward to this from the gifs I had seen during the competition, it is really fun!
