That's a solid idea you can build something cool around, so props for that mechanic. Unfortunately, as things turned out, the tactical decision-making wasn't that important. I easily finished the game in one play-through with only dropping to around 25% water level.\n\nI occasionally got stuck against walls while walking perpendicular to them. \n\nThe art is pretty simple, but things are clearly identifiable. I am not a big fan of the grey wall\/orange floor color scheme with the occasional red rug. Figuring out a good color scheme would be my main critique. There's a little bit of non-uniform sprite scaling with the sword being HD but the rest of the game is scaled up.\n\nThe music is quite repetitive. It could have used some variation.\n\nAll in all I feel like I see and appreciate where you were going with this, and it's a shame you ran out of time to implement it all.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Kosmik123","author_uid":"1128185","time":"2020-04-23T14:47:54Z","epoch":1587653274,"modified":1587653274,"text":"I thought that the water was going down to fast, but after all I managed to make it to the end.
