    • “The music is simple and whimsical, but not overbearing.”
    • “The soundtrack is all over the place; it's really annoying when it goes from calm, wondrous music to sudden loud, intense battle music for no reason. I've had it happen with literally not another fish in sight.”
    • “The music is incredibly frustrating, constantly jumping from enemy music any time a fish wants to eat you... by the way, they always want to eat you!”
    • “The recent updates have made the game worse; they've removed fish, replaced the music, and it's just awful. This game is the saddest, most hollow shell of its former self one could ever imagine.”
  • grinding
    48 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “You can always blame it on being early access, but when the game has been out for 5 years, I don't think that matters anymore. It's just an assload of blind grinding; there's nothing to the game. You can sit there farming until you kill the first boss, then it's just easy mode and that's it. I have never been so bored in my life.”
    • “Progression is very, very tedious and unrewarding. The mollusc hitboxes aren't ideal and force you to make very precise movements just to do literally the most basic action in the game (eating AI shrimp/snails as a fry).”

  • optimization
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is widely criticized, with players reporting significant performance issues, including frequent bugs, frame rate drops, and unresponsive controls. Many users experience unplayable lag after short play sessions, and even those with high-spec PCs struggle to achieve satisfactory performance.

    • “It runs smoothly for me, and I find this enjoyable.”
    • “Also, I'm pretty sure it can be optimized, but for what it is, it's great. The only other game I tried in early access was Subnautica, and I'm looking forward to seeing this game grow.”
    • “I haven't had any performance issues with this game - I run it on 'beautiful' (which I think is like the 2nd best setting).”
    • “Players frequently report bugs, glitches, and performance problems such as frame rate drops, poor optimization, and unstable controls.”
    • “The game has simply poor performance; my specs should easily run this game, but I can't get anything over 20 frames per second when not in a menu.”
    • “It all started looking pretty dire for the game when it switched from a 32-bit version to a 64-bit, not only causing graphical glitches but inexcusable performance. The game appears to be really demanding for the rather lackluster visuals and gameplay it delivers.”
  • atmosphere
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere of the game is generally praised for its impressive visuals and lifelike animations, creating a relaxing and immersive underwater experience. However, some users note that the minimal and repetitive sound design detracts from the overall ambiance. The blend of cartoon and realistic styles effectively enhances the feeling of being a creature navigating diverse environments.

    • “The models of each creature look outstanding, the atmosphere and environment are very well done. The animation is also impressive; whenever your fish swims, it feels so lifelike, making you feel like you're the creature itself.”
    • “The style and visuals are a sort of cartoon/realism crossover, and it works really well. The game makes you feel as though you are this tiny or giant creature swimming through whatever environment you decide to play, while still keeping its friendly, cartoonish atmosphere.”
    • “It is really chill; I find the underwater atmosphere quite relaxing.”
    • “Atmosphere - 9”
    • “The style and visuals are sort of a cartoon/realism crossover, and it works really well. The game makes you feel as though you are this tiny or giant creature swimming through whatever environment you decide to play, whilst still keeping its friendly, cartoonish atmosphere.”
  • monetization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization of the game is criticized as a blatant cash grab, with users feeling that it offers little value and is riddled with issues, such as poor gameplay and intrusive ads. Many suggest it resembles a low-quality mobile game that should be free, indicating that it is not worth its current price.

    • “Just a cash grab at this point, plus the game sucks when you can actually get it to load.”
    • “Why do people use this game for ads for other games?”
    • “Long story short, this game is the kind of time killer you'd get for free with ads on your phone and get bored of, uninstalling after forgetting you had it for a few months. Throw it on your wish list and wait for it to go to around $5 because it's barely worth $7.”
  • emotional
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players express a strong emotional connection to the game, feeling a sense of achievement through in-game rewards, while also experiencing sadness over its potential decline into obscurity. The emotional responses range from pride in accomplishments to a poignant sense of loss for the game's future.
