2D Survival / Revenge Maze Game

Play as a diver dude trying to avenge his fathers death. Collect and sell oysters to upgrade your diver until he is strong enough to find and catch the super oyster, 'Mega Jug'.

How to Play

You are a diver dude trying to avenge his fathers death. But first you need upgrades. Navigate the maze to find and collect oysters. Take your oysters back up to the boat to sell, but be careful, you need to make it back to the boat before your oxygen runs out otherwise you lose your oyster haul! Use your money to buy upgrade your diver until he is strong and fast enough to find and catch the super oyster, 'Mega Jug'

Dev Thoughts

Had a lot of fun with this Ludum Dare, I worked solo again, wasn't expecting the event to be on until late March but when I checked earlier in the week I was surprised to see it so early. Initially didn't really like the theme of harvest, but I promised some friends I'd make a game about oysters...? Expanded some of my gamedev knowledge by building a shop and upgrade system, as well as a probability based spawning system.

Special thanks to Dad and Josie for helping and play testing.
