I thoroughly enjoyed this game, I only got one of the two endings so far (the standard escape by rocket one), but to me this is a great game. Amazing work!
I definitely enjoyed this game. It’s forgiving - but not too much - has a clear sense of progression, and is absolutely packed full of atmosphere and dedication to the PS1 vibe.
I like me some ocean games. There's a real untapped market there. Subnautica helped scratch that itch, but I think there is more scratching that can be done in the future.
Finished your game a few minutes earlyer and it was really cool ! i liked the way of telling a little story by not telling it at all , like arriveing by a rocket on a strange water planet and other things . If you will expand the game by any chance , i would like to suggest a few things maybe for some changes ^^ ( not that im entitled for that or anything else in any way .. but ye )
Hey there I finished the Game a second ago and I had a lot of fun while playing it.
Respect for the awesome work. In the game it is awesome how you managed that I as the player has alwayes the feeling for a progress and what I really like is the simple but awesome level design. I never get lost and find alway home to the homebase ... please keep up the great work ... love it <3
Please help, when I try to launch the game it just shows the godot engine logo and nothing else, then if I press something it goes black and I hear the sounds of the game but nothing else
Which OS are you using? Can you give me some details about your hardware specs (especially graphics card)? Also try to hit enter and see if that changes anything. Thanks!
Great game bud, it was really good for a free game TBH. I thought it had a good story line also. Lots of fun with lots of upgrades. Thank you for making this, I hope to see more from you.
I loved this so much!! One of the best games I've played on itch!! Idk how I didn't see it before but the fact that you made this for a game jam makes this even more of an amazing accomplishment!! This was like Subnautica for the PS1 and it stood out some much from everything else!! Thanks for making this game!!
Yeah Subnautica was definitely an inspiration. It's a really great game and I'm flattered that my small game is getting compared to it :) Thanks for playing!
This game is pretty awesome. It can be finished in about an hour if you know what do to and you won't get bored playing it through. Great atmosphere and gameplay as well.
Small spolier:Be sure to check the surroundings if you want to see all endings.
enjoyed playing this but my god the prices like im digging for dirt lol any get rich quick tips? ill upload some gameplay on my YT channel at some point no fake cam commentary just good old fashioning gameplay
Yeah, so there are different minerals at deeper depths. As soon as you got your first 10 credits get yourself the "Pressure Stabilizer Mask". This allows you to comfortably go to a depth of 50 meters and even a bit below that. There you'll find Iron and Silver which is vastly more worth than copper and tin (100 times as much really). The same thing applies to every time you get an upgrade to your max. depth. The fastest / easiest way to finish the game is actually just trying to get to the next type of minerals as fast as possible. Let me know if you have any further questions and thanks for playing! :)
Excellent little diving/mining game. Reminded me a bit of Treasures of the Deep for PS1. I find the deep ocean both fascinating and terrifying so it's nice to sea more games like this popping up. I would love to play a more fleshed-out version of this one day, with more shop items and areas to explore. Maybe a story-driven mode that involves something with those sunken rocket ships and drowned divers? Either way, great work for a quick jam game!
Thank you for playing and the kind words sodaraptor! Yeah I'm still working on the game, expanding it and polishing stuff up. Definitely got a lot of ideas for stuff to add :)

Excellent work! I had a lot of fun with this.
Really great game, I really enjoyed playing and the graphics are awesome!
This is a really fun game!
How did you make the PS1 style graphics?

Really great game but how do we save ?
Had alot of fun with this game, impressed that it was made in 72hours.
With some new content and a patch this could go for sale on Steam. Great work
Good job, this amazing <3
Absolutely recommended.

Thank you so much for the kind words. Really, much appreciated :) Thanks for playing!
Made a video
Thanks! :)
Honestly, I really enjoyed this! Another hit from you Warkus! Top notch! Love the atmosphere and feeling of fear I get while being in the water!
Hey, thanks for playing and making a video :) It's always cool to hear when people enjoy my other games too. Glad that you're enjoying what I make :)
Oh totally! I look forward to playing more!
Please help, when I try to launch the game it just shows the godot engine logo and nothing else, then if I press something it goes black and I hear the sounds of the game but nothing else

Same problem. Game freezes at GODOT logo, however game sound does still play (I can hear the female voice intro). Pressing Enter does nothing.
FOUND HOW TO FIX:
Nvidia control panel -> 3D settings -> program settings -> oceanwork.exe -> find "Anti-Aliasing mode" and choose "controlled by app".
This is top tier!
Thank you! :D
I guess ps1 girls are fine.
:)
sadly the latest mac version wont work because for some reason its damaged???
Oh, I'm sorry. Building for Mac is sadly not as easy as it should be. Working on a solution, tough
I like this game very much
Thanks! :)

How do you save the game?
There is no way to save the game currently. I'm working on it, though :)
Oh ok ty,
Great work btw
Thanks! And thank you for playing! :)

Loved this game, so much fun I got both endings! And I found a diskman at the shop? ;)
Thanks for playing! This should explain the diskman: https://warrrkus.itch.io/ghoststudy
I played this game after playing Kept Hidden, Thy Flesh and Ghost Study. I got the reference lol.

Thanks for playing! :)
