Like the concept, good use of the theme. I liked that the water seemed to get darker the further the player descended.

Try to make them (a lot) shorter next time, and put the story in the game itself. It was cool that you had a story though!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Some camera movement relative to the player would have been nice to indicate that you were going faster or slower, or right or left.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Game seemed okay, but the difficulty increased at a too slow pace for this kind of game. And I don't think that having such a wide level is wise, since it just felt unfair when the air bubbles appeared far away from you. Maybe an indication of where there was air bubbles would help?"},{"author_name":"borrismoose","author_uid":"25730","time":"May 17, 2014 @ 9:51pm","epoch":1400363160,"text":"It took a while to get going.
