Good game. Digging, meat, eyeballs. 10 outta 10.
Kinda reminds me of Minecraft a little bit but inside a somewhat dead giant whale a has that horror vibe it may be a short game but it's really good. (Also this game works 100% on Linux)
True to emulate iron lung but lacks the basics of what made iron lung so good. The mystery is boring and the minamilist gameplay is even more so. Iron lung makes its limited gameplay engrossing as it progressively got harder , it used a soundscape to make the game seem more alive and it lead a breadcrumb trail of cool and chilling clues/ artifacts. This game is just hitting a axe against a wall while listening to the same droning track and u discover the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ clue over and over again (a skeleton, how spooky….).it requires no skill and there is no threat which would be fine if the game at least attempted to make me think that there would be one. The ending of iron lung , the jumpscare works as the idea of something being terribly wrong , something following u and ur resources dwindling has been built up to the point where it forces u into this panicked mode that gets this sudden release.it literally edges u with the suggestion of something happening so hard so when it finally happens it feels earned. Whale flesh i was just bored out of my mind and it caught me by surprise that something actually happened aside from me pressing the forward button and right key thru a sea of red. Play voyager-19 if ur looking for an iron lung inspired game since it understands that the core of it all is the sound design , atmosphere and actual threat. This ♥♥♥♥ is just lazy The price is a joke too. U can get free games with more effort and longer run time then this or better yet just buy iron lung

4/10 I love the art style of this game. There are a couple of small jump scares. The lore behind the game is interesting but very small compared to the overall game, but the ending was a bit disappointing. The meat of the game is just mining through the dead whale, using a radar to locate any near by beacons, that will lead you to the other research teams. There are eight beacons total. You follow the green beacon lights, which are a little hard to find if you don't check the radar often. A map would be nice or at the very least a save mechanism. I recommend to buy on sale.
an unnerving short little game about digging around in the corpse of a massive whale, really like the ambience it made me feel like i was being watched at all times. good job
It was alright, wish it hand more lore and stuff like iron lung. Not really worth the price, get it on sale then refund it when you finish it 5\10
Rotten worlds are the best worlds out there (maybe after mouldy ones), and this one fits the bill. It seems to be a test of "what can we do with voxels?", and the answer is: not much. Great tool for good level design, but not as a part of gameplay, especially not as dark. It seems to lean too much into "oOoOoOo unanswerable mysteryYyYy" with all the masks, and creatures, and ghost things, and deaths; and would've hit a good amount of spooky and mysterious for theorisiers to dig in, if it dialed back a bit, You gotta know when to stop adding things on top of things, and this game doesn't, turning itself into a pizza cutter: all edge, no point. Still, quite enjoyable. I had my fair share of fun, discovered a few secrets - which is always appreciated - so go spend fifteen minutes digging around meat and looking for notes, it is enjoyable!
A short indie horror with an interesting premise; you're drilling down into a strange biomass to investigate what it is and why it is here. Visuals work well, the sound design is fine, and the mechanics function smoothly enough. The game has some good atmosphere and scares. Well worth a try! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycBiXKYOlxU
Gra mocno średnia, oceniłbym nawet na takie 3/10. Klimat ciekawy ale brakuje... czegoś. Naprawdę czegokolwiek co by się działo, są 4 momenty gdzie faktycznie coś się dzieje a pozostałe to kopanie w mięsku, brakowało mi tekstu, interakcji, lore, naprawdę czegokolwiek co by poprawiło immersję. Liczę na coś więcej w przyszłości.
This is just dumb. You'd think there is some type of story to this, there isnt. You just use a pickaxe to dig through squelching walls and find some skelies. Then you step on something then die. Its a parasite. Thats it, thats the story, your team is dead and its parasites that put a mask on you. But the weird thing is, none of the skeletons have masks on. . .Anyways deff not worth 5 bucks, deff not worth your time. Typically I dont leave reviews bashing games like this but like it doesnt make sense. Dev could leave little notes with some of the dead people giving some sense of dread or fear of whats ahead. Maybe have some noises behind you look back to see something following . . . idk
