In the Darkness of the Sea Reviews

Darkness of the Sea, really short atmospheric game. I liked it but its definitely not for every one.

Needed some kind of tutorial, changes in scenery, story with direction, more interesting game mechanics - a player has to play something for it to be a game and not just a video you could upload to youtube.

It was an interesting game... Lasted a whole 10 minutes... Think I can say succesfully Spedrun this.... Huh... I mean its not bad. But its not good as well. Atleast I didnt waste money.

First Impressions Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Usc8ZcizL98&feature=youtu.be In The Darkness of the Sea is a fun little story adventure game where you paddle your way through a storm on a little rowboat. You need to avoid a persistant whale and some flying fish along the way. The game is a bit short, but for a free game and first release from Olivier LeClair, it was quite enjoyable. I did not encounter any bugs or glitches. The game can be finished in about 10 minutes, and only takes up about 100mb of space. If you have some time to kill, try it out!

A good short little game that takes no more than 10 minutes to complete. Story is one of those types that make you think of what it's trying to say. Music and sounds are brilliant. Definitely check it out.

terrible game and terrible graphics good story but very glitchy and the story doesnt have an end it just goes on and even if you dont hit a wale you till die so worst game

The black and white, simplistic character, yet realistic environment along with the sad and intense music make for a poignant atmosphere of loneliness. The game is short, but to get through it one must actually focus in order to properly dodge the upcomming treats. Well made game, and the atmosphere reaches the player has intended!

Its a fun game a little bit too short but can't complai it's Free. Great atmosphere Love the visual reminds me of Limbo The music is good for me There's no tutorial but you don't need any its more simple than playing Mario bros Keep going with the work i'd love to see more.

While this game (more like interactive experience) is very, very short; it's a striking almost piece of art with really beautiful music to go along with it. There is indeed a little lag during one scene of the game, but it wasn't enough to be frustrating or really take away a lot of that moment. This is really not for the faint of heart, as it's more just observing someone's art come to life, but it's a really striking game for what it is.

A tiny free game/interactive experience, asking you to spend fifteen minutes of your life being a surprisingly expressive black blob on a lifeboat, lost In the Darkness of the Sea. For such a short thing, this is an interesting exploration on a theme. It starts off by suggesting a sense of serenity, carried over by a soothing musical theme and even more by a highly emotive visual aesthetic. Then it cleverly lets you scramble at the start of every scene, by not explaining the few basic mechanics you need to move forwards, and thus evoking a sense of helplessness and confusion. The smart animation details and sound design bring everything together and allow the monochromatic art to take you on a memorable little journey that I can easily recommend.
