Deep the Game

Very deep

Good and simple :)

Developed by Goricina Productions and published by Goricina Entertainment, Deep the Game is a free-to-play side-scrolling platformer that blends retro-inspired visuals with exploration-focused gameplay. The adventure begins when an explorer unexpectedly falls into a vast subterranean world, forcing them to navigate an ancient network of caves in search of a way back to the surface. While the story remains intentionally straightforward, it establishes a mysterious backdrop filled with forgotten ruins, hidden pathways, and remnants of a civilization long since lost. Rather than relying on lengthy dialogue or cinematic storytelling, the game lets its environments gradually reveal pieces of its history as players descend deeper into the underground. The gameplay centers on precision platforming, rewarding players who master movement while remaining curious enough to investigate every corner of the map. Traversal goes beyond simple jumping, incorporating mechanics such as climbing, wall jumps, swimming, and sliding that make exploration progressively more engaging. Hidden chambers, collectible coins, valuable treasures, and secret routes encourage players to deviate from the main path,…

Simple platformer. Feels unfinished and frustrating at times, not very fun. There won't be any updates to my knowledge, but this can be some feedback even for future projects. I will strart with the good: Chapter 2 final level 20 was very fun compared to everything before. Art is nice. I also like how Chapter 4 looks, it is very cool! Music is nice. Now what could be improved... In general: Movement feels too fast. There is also no coyote time. In my opinion, crates take too long to break. The chests in the menu flashbang me every time I open one. When it comes to audio: Every surface has same walking audio (grass and stone for example) Springs have no audio Getting hearts has no audio Fire has no audio Getting damadged from spikes Finishing a level has no audio Bow itself has no audio, there is only audio when hitting something. Punching has no audio When it comes to levels: Loading seems to be fast but the transision screens into chapters are very slow. Levels could have more detail, background for example. They feel empty. Chapter 2 level 13 1st high jump is annoying, Chapter 4 level 9 is not fun at all. Chapter 3 level 20 gimmick shows bac…

I'd like to start off by saying that this game does have its upsides, like a nice soundtrack and artstyle. Also, I don't have a problem with the chest or cosmetic system, I think those are fine. And one more thing that I want to get straight, this game is a little short without any DLCs, so 2 hours is basically the whole 4 chapters. Anyway, my main complaint is the platforming physics. Man, I really think it could have been so much better if it had some touch-ups. But, I'll cut the dev some slack since they've stopped updating the game a while ago. I just wanted to say that, for starters, the falling speed is kind of a mess, I'd appreciate if that would've been nerfed. In addition, coyote time would make the game a whole lot more easier to play, not in difficulty, but it would make it less annoying. Also, the wall jump physics aren't very good. When you jump off a wall, you only have the choice of a little hop that you can't control. You have to just hold whatever direction you were jumping to actually move off the wall. But I suppose that can make it good for quick wall jumps. I think a good addition would have been to add jump input velocity, where the longer you press W / Space…

might be the only review but this game is a free platformer its actually a vibe and the controller support is good i hope the best for the dev of this game as he is pretty talented
