Deep Dive: Ocean Explorer

Runaway Play

About this game

Use your submersible to explore the depths of the ocean and capture photos of its mysterious inhabitants!

Choose the path your submersible takes, search for fish and other sea creatures amongst the ocean depths. Put your underwater photography skills to the test and capture the best photo of each marine species you find.

Your photos will be judged on their quality, centering, and the interesting actions or behavior you capture of each species. Great photos are rewarded with points that you can use to earn upgrades for your submersible. The better your submersible, the more areas of the ocean you can explore to discover new species!

This is a Runaway Minis project - a prototype with one level we are testing to gauge interest from players before further developing into a fully-fledged game.

Ratings and reviews

I think it's an interesting idea. It's different from other Runaway games, but I could see it working. It has good music, you can upgrade your sub, and you can choose which path to take on an expedition. If it gets made into a full game, I'm kind of hoping the animals will have more specific species names like in other Runaway games. I also think main levels should have objectives, as there's no real goals as it stands. Overall it's fun and I hope it gets made into a full game.

It's a decent start. The picture function doesn't always work, I'll tap to take a photo of a fish and the camera won't work, which is frustrating. Additionally, the tutorial initially worked, but I went back to replay it because I got tired of playing the same level and it broke when it asked me to take a photo of the second fish. A big thing I'd like to see added would be milestones or level goals? As in "accomplish xyz paths" I found myself creating my own challenges.

I love this game but just one problem 😂 probably because of me. So the level map says " tutorial" and "level 1" but I have tryed to get to level 2 but I can't bc idk how I've tried taking all the pictures I can store and took all the paths but I just don't understand how to get to level 2,,,if you could respond I would love it!!!
