In the near future, the climate will warm, the glaciers will melt, and the last land mass will disappear, and the Earth will enter an ocean age. This catastrophic change reduced the population. In order to continue civilization, human beings started the "Merman project".

With the w, a, s, d keys, the character has to go back and forth, right and left.
It should zoom the character with the middle mouse wheel.
The resolution should be 1366x768.
Tasks should appear with a right click of the mouse.
Mouse left click, if there are bad animals in the sea, we have to counterattack them.
I hope you add them to the game and update them, thanks.

This isn't bad.
Bad is this. I mean, when you say "this is bad", you shouldn't. You should say "this is Mermaid!".
Nothing works, repetitive game play, no fun, no game.
Avoid.
Also : it is rated "sexual content" and "nudity" for no reason at all. (Which isn't a bad thing, it would be plainly stupid to add sexual content to a thing that doesn't work in the first place)

I can't get past the very first stage. I need to get a diving license. There are two tabs one called task the other call teach. It's letting me touch task but I can't hit teach. Meaning I can't get my diving license. I've been stuck on this for over a week and it's very frustrating! Any help would be appreciated!

This is the worst game I have ever played. It is so bad, Digital Homicides games are masterpieces compared to this one.
First off, the controls make it borderline unplayable. Pressing the right mouse button lets you dash forward and you change directions by moving your mouse which only works while you are moving. This makes the controls very imprecise, for example it is infuriatingly difficult to move through smaller passages because you always dash past them then get stuck on walls. The camera can not be controlled manually and is not fixed behind your character but instead ... well, apparently it moves around without much rhyme or reason... so half the time you can't see were you're going which doesn't help either. Interacting with your environment is incredibly awkward: You interact with stuff by left-clicking on it but by default the cursor is hidden. To switch between shown and hidden mouse cursor you have to press esc which you would have to do often if the game had more than five minutes of gameplay because you can't move while the cursor is shown and can't do anything else while it's hidden.
You're playing a mermaid and start the game in an underwater base in a room with a NPC called "commander" who gives you a brief rundown of the story: Climate change has forced mankind to live underwater, scientists are researching some special kind of oxygen and merman genes that let humans breathe underwater and you're supposed to run missions for them. Your first task is to get a "diving license" from the commander which turns out to be impossible because the two buttons you get when you interact with her ("task" and "teach") don't work.
Then you can swim around the base for a while until you get bored, uninstall the game and come here to leave a negative review. I wasn't able to find an exit, you probably need the diving license to progress in the game.
