✦ AI summary

Submechanic has a charming, creative concept with handmade models and an interesting premise that keeps players engaged, though it's quite short at around 30-35 minutes. Players praise the adorable characters and unique underwater tank mechanics, but note that the game loses momentum toward the end, with the final tanks and sequences feeling less polished and anti-climactic compared to the strong opening.

The concept of the game is great and I really enjoyed playing it. The gameplay is interesting and it kept me engaged while playing. One thing I did find difficult was trying to keep with the tutorial prompts when entering each tank, they disappear too quickly so it can be easy to miss these instructions when first getting into these tanks. I suggest adding a continue button or making it a bit longer so that it's easier for players to read! Overall, I really enjoyed this little game and I think you should keep making games :)! P.S I did play the game with brightness all the way down which is my fault as I did not see the brightness bar in the settings menu :DDD

Though the game was really short, I enjoyed it very much! The characters were adorable and I love the Chef <3!! I would absolutely play again if this game was expanded upon. Keep making games!!!

For a cheap, small game, it was really sweet and charming. Authentic indie horror, reminiscent of the 2010's budget horror content. The mechanics are kind of easy, and not very scary (turn the brightness down) but every model is hand made and it's just rather enjoyable.

Great concept that, surprisingly, I have not found anywhere else. I think that the game does a great job capsulating the machine in murky water creepiness. I especially like the design of the alligator and that section for sure. However, there are a few areas that were kind of anti-climatic such as the last two tanks as well as the crab chase. The minigames are simple enough and straight forward, I feel like this is one of those games that you get what you pay for, which is not necessarily a bad thing. That being said, I did follow this game since I saw the creator comment about it under a tiktok and I am happy to say that for a passion project its not too shabby and was a entertaining 35 mins.

they ran out of ideas after like the 1st two tanks it feels like. the final two are just get object with nothing happening and then die on purpose. after the 1st two, you head into a inexplicable maze in the back of the restaurant, and if a horror game is putting you in a maze, like a literal mouse looking for cheese ass maze, yeah they gave up. after that you got shoo away a gator with your light and it plays a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ kremling sound from donkey kong country? dude what? it's mid, get the game if you want an ok horror game to play for 30 minutes.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
