    The gameplay features interesting mechanics and a decent atmosphere, but it suffers from a lack of polish and functionality typical of early access titles. While the water mechanics and low poly graphics are appreciated, many players express a desire for a more relaxed mode without survival elements, allowing for exploration at a leisurely pace. The addition of an inventory system, crafting, and farming in recent updates adds variety, but overall, the game still feels incomplete.

    • “The water mechanics are pretty good, and the atmosphere of the game is not bad.”
    • “The playstyle is similar to Under the Sand, with the same low poly graphics which I do enjoy, yet the mechanics are slightly different, such as an added inventory system, crafting, and now since the latest update, farming as well!”
    • “But for me, it's not; I just hope there will be a mode without any survival mechanics, so I can just sit at the shore, watch days and nights change one another peacefully, and explore some points of interest at my own pace.”
    • “Mechanically, it's an early access title. I get it, a lot of things and systems don't function well enough for it to be a great survival game.”
