I really wanted to see what would happen if I escaped.  It was a little anticlimatic.  Might be interesting if it is a tub and you could try to swim underwater to pull the plug and drain it.  Also, sound and maybe an idea of your captor would be fun.  I always enjoy story in game.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"schsam","author_uid":"1082243","time":"2018-08-13T17:00:47Z","epoch":1534179647,"modified":1534179647,"text":"@evanm That's all part of it :P! Jk, thanks for letting me know. It's been a tricky issue to track down. For now there's a fix to stop the raft from completely exploding, so it just gets jiggly.\n\n@dk5000p Thanks for the play through! I totally agree with all of your comments. At the end of the day it was mostly a time thing. I had DEFINITELY thought about doing some kind of swimming underwater \/ drain type thing. It would be sick, maybe for LD43 :).","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Raziyya","author_uid":"1050442","time":"2018-08-13T20:44:52Z","epoch":1534193092,"modified":1534193092,"text":"Interesting concept!

You water simulation is really neat, and the idea in itself is also great, especially since there is a clear goal to be accomplished.\n\nTwo things I would change: increase the pacing (either make the water level rise faster or lower the box height) and make the text more readable (e.g. so that I don't have to tilt my head left and right). \nThe first is especially important, as I was lacking motivation to go for a second attempt.\n\nAlso thank you for pointing out the link issue.

With that being said, I still like it. I also like how I can really feel the water overwhelming me-- not only does it make me feel panicked watching that meter go down, but it also makes me feel like I'm running out of space as I get buried under the water.\n\nThe visuals, although basic, aren't unappealing.

The concept here is quite interesting, and the physics are impressive! It's not really optimized well though, because I was running at about 6 frames per second or less by the end of it, and I have a pretty powerful computer. The graphics are quite good, and both the raft and the water looked really nice, although the background and the cube container didn't look quite as good. The mood is awesome too, with the nice descriptive text and the great feeling of being out at sea in a cube! As far as fun goes though, it mechanically was just spinning around the torrent of water the entire game, but the visual appeal helped make it a lot more fun, especially with the quirky raft physics!
