    The graphics of the game are widely praised for their beauty and realism, creating a calming and visually appealing experience.

    • “Game frozen with lowest possible graphic settings on 'generating reef' screen (10+ mins)”
    • “I don't usually dislike a game unless I've played it for an extensive amount of time, but when a game won't even load with the lowest possible graphics, there is an issue.”

  • stability
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, including frequent freezes during loading and gameplay, particularly when generating reefs. Users report that controls are unresponsive and buggy, making it difficult to perform basic actions like eating. Overall, while the graphics are praised, the game's performance is hampered by optimization problems, especially on weaker PC builds.

    • “The game freezes during loading.”
    • “Could use some optimization; with a weaker PC build, generating a reef crashes/freezes the game.”
    • “When you load into the game itself, it just freezes and I had to restart my computer just to get out of it.”
  • gameplay
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay features innovative mechanics that may take time to master, but they offer a refreshing experience, particularly with solutions to specific challenges like the "generating reef" problem. However, some players find the gameplay lacking depth and criticize the tricky attack mechanics. As an early access title, there is potential for improvement through future updates and bug fixes.

    • “It utilizes mechanics that are a bit hard to get used to, but are refreshing and new.”
    • “Great solution to the 'generating reef' problem. I hope to see more updates to improve the gameplay with new animals and activities; I love it!”
    • “It is, however, an early access product, and there is still time for the gameplay to be fleshed out, bugs fixed, and so on.”
    • “Not really much to it gameplay wise.”
    • “The attack mechanics are really tricky.”
    • “It is, however, an early access product and there is still time for the gameplay to be fleshed out, bugs fixed and so on.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviewers appreciate the peaceful music selection in the game, suggesting that additional options for controlling the ambiance could enhance the experience. They express a desire for more immersive elements to complement the music, making the gameplay feel more conducive to exploration and relaxation.

    • “If this is going to stay as is, as an experiment and not have further development as a sim game, then I think it would be cool to have more 'stuff' on screen, a little less management of health/air/etc, and perhaps some additional options/control over the ambiance (music/sounds) to make it more conducive to just swimming around and justify spending more time in the game.”
    • “Peaceful music selection.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users feel that the story has potential but requires further development, particularly through the addition of missions, progression systems, and skills to enhance engagement. Overall, there is a recommendation for the game, indicating optimism for its future improvements.
