I pushed myself a bit on this one by trying to do some animations which I typically ignore for game jams.  Here's a list of things I'd like to expand on if I were to take this game further:\n* Level variety\n* Music\n* More enemies\n* General polish\n\nI wasn't able to polish things as much as I would like, so you can find some weird glitches.  Sometimes enemies may pin you against the wall, or they'll get launched super high if you hit them with a rock.  It's all part of the fun of doing a game jam!\n\nThanks again for checking my game out.  I look forward to everyone's feedback, and I'll do my best to play and rate everyone's game!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1123427,"author_name":"MSD","author_uid":"msd","epoch":1744014687,"text":"Surprisingly this game made me laught.

Whether out of desperation or a conscious artistic choice, grabbing your mic and makin' whatever noise you can beats dead silence any day.\n\nInto the Depths has as many enemy types as power ups and does some fun things with them, from the age old throw-rock-at-dude-he-go-ow to a delicate ballet with a flying enemy and a pistol. It doesn't overstay its welcome, and in its short time on screen feels complete, the \"yay\" at the end absolutely knocked me out of my chair.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":1136547,"author_name":"cammyrnn","author_uid":"cammyrnn","epoch":1744177426,"text":"The sound effects are awesome lol.
