The graphics in the game receive mixed reviews, with users noting impressive water physics but criticizing the low-definition visuals and repetitive scenery. While there are two graphics modes and some performance optimization, many feel that the overall graphical quality is lacking and could benefit from significant improvements, especially given the capabilities of modern hardware. Overall, the visuals are deemed acceptable for a budget title, but there is a strong desire for enhanced graphical fidelity.
“Right now I'm getting 90 fps using 500% resolution with the Index and my RTX 3090 (in-game graphics on the highest) - and I don't need 500% resolution.”
“I'd much rather want awesome graphics that really push my rig.”
“I definitely think the visuals can be improved overall, but it's not bad for a budget underwater title.”
“There was also a glitch; once I switched from low quality to the highest quality graphics, all of the sea life completely disappeared.”
“The water physics are amazing, but it's let down by low-definition graphics and repetitive scenery and fish.”
“The fish look like 2D graphics plastered on poorly rendered 3D models, and the scenery is just the same; it is also pretty barren.”

The music in the game is generally well-composed and fits the experience, but many users find it excessively loud and lacking a volume control option, which detracts from the overall enjoyment. Players are requesting a feature to adjust or mute the music entirely. Despite this issue, the game remains enjoyable for its other aspects.
“Overall though: yeah, the ear-killing music aside, it's a pretty chill experience and one I can see myself mucking about in some more.”
“Devs, please, for the love of Poseidon, add a music volume option and make it one that goes down to zero!”
“The worst, for me, is the music.”
“While the music itself is fine and seems to suit the experience, it is so loud and there is no way to turn it off!”
“Devs, please, for the love of Poseidon, add a music volume option that goes down to zero!”

The story aspect of the game is criticized for its lack of attention to detail, particularly in the design of the sunken airplane, which is described as having an inappropriate hexagonal shape instead of a more realistic round shape. This suggests a disconnect between the narrative and the visual elements, potentially detracting from the overall immersion.
