Flash Diving

[h1]The game is small and very primitive.[/h1] [list][*]The game mechanics are so thin they're hard to describe. There're not many of them. [*]If you ask me whether to play it or not, I'd say no. [*]Will you be surprised by the game? Definitely no. [/list] 5/10. Very poor and small game, coulda done more.

Cool idea, not a very interesting game. I suppose it's a bit uncouth to give a free game a negative review, but I don't generally like to factor in the price of a game when considering it's value. I base my review on time spent vs enjoyment had. Regardless of how much or little a game costs in money, all games cost in time sunk into them, and some are more worth that time than others. Flash diving is a game that can be fully completed in about 10 minutes, and that time is doubled if you get all the achievements. The concept of this game is interesting. It's a bit like Iron Lung, but with less setup and MUCH less to do. Essentially, you have to wait for about 2-3 minutes for the first section of the game to finish, which has nothing going on. Then, you get to the actual game, and your progress is saved so you don't have to go through the beginning again. The gameplay has you listening for a sound, and pressing 1 of 4 buttons to prevent death. If you have any kind of hearing problems, or you don't have headphones, you cannot play this game. You must spend several minutes listening intently to the direction of the sound and hit the button in that direction ASAP. As…

Very good game ! It took me some time to understand the gimmick (I actually got both [spoiler] Cheater. [/spoiler] and [spoiler] You've played this before. [/spoiler] achievements before the normal one) but, once understood, it was a really fun experience. The ambience is really well made, maybe the single flaw I can see in the sound design is the footstep noise being super loud but it doesn't really bothers much. Anyways, if you see this, then I really want you to play this game, it's a really short experience and you won't be disappointed !

Definitely not a very complicated game, a very neat little demo of an idea. It felt like I would die in fairly unfair ways near the end because of the strangely tight reaction window to fend off the beast, where I would die even after everything goes quiet. Other than that, it is a fine game

I tried this a few times and never managed to figure out how it worked and I seem to remember getting achievements anyway, and at least one said I cheated when I had no idea how I did.
