Great game, I will admit that although I've noticed something of a glitch in survival, sometimes the enemy destroyers appear on the land patches or are spawned inside the land patches so you can't do anything and they can't either.

@Voydalker: What I did with the rock-spawning shps was I went to the surface in it's torpepo blind-spot and charged it until I hit the rock just enough to bring m front end out of the water at an angle and fired. To make sure it worked, you can back away someand activate the sonar. dead ships don't ping.

Great little game you got here. I still don't hear warning sounds whenever a torpedo is fired, even though you apparently fixed it. Maybe I'm not doing something correctly?

2 ships spawned on top of a rock and couldnt kill them. they were able to fire torpedoes from the rock oddly enough ...

woah those destroyers are really fast its like: sir! a destroyer is coming in our way, 25° degrees, and coming in fast. ooohh... s**t we are totally screweeeeeeedddd. Sir! Damage on levels 1,3,4,2, on the bridge, and on the torpedo tubes, sir! sir? uuuuhhh... I think we need a medic over here

Great game, congrats! 5/5!
I would love to see two things:
It would be good to have a heading indicator in degrees,and more important, some improvement on destroyers' pathing so that they dont end up off the water, it is really annoying to have to restart a good progress in survival.

Needs a depth gauge and speedometer to show your speed and depth and also speed of descent if possible. Yeah, destroyers are way too fast upon detection.

Just a suggestion for some further improvements:
1st: Set y for fireing torpedos too. - Why? QWERTY / QWERTZ Keyboard support.
2nd: Maybe add steering with mouse (catching mouse with Unity 3d is possible)
2.5nd: Ascending / Diving with mouse wheel?
3rd: Delete the Tutorial from the main screen and add it as first mission with a skip button (just a simple improvement but hey it's better if you play it the first time)
+ if you like it

there should be pressure resistance that don't let you silk too long and too deeply (slowly renovate when you emerge)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
could use:
-objectives/missions
-health indicator
-is there any benefit of having sonar on/off?
-depth
-bearing/coordinates
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
It would be more comfortable to move the periscope view with the keys different from responsible for steering, like we could use Q and E. Also, periscope key could be F or V, so all the important buttons would be on one side on keyboard.

uhh wtf i just blew up a destroyer and then the destroyers just rushed like hyperactive speed and destroyed my sub and only 1 of them survived........these ships have issues...
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
youknow it would be nice if 1 enemy ship sink slowley like yours and 2 if they had health big ships take three torps small two patrol boats one that kind of thing and fish and coral sharks and underwater volcanoes? and maybe diferent sub types like one is fast but little armor one is tough but slow another that has strong torps and good speed but TERIBLE turning and then the defult thats like the one alredy in game and again BIGER MAPS PLEASE it just feels so...........confined and maybe add deck guns? that we have to use if spotted and a hull meter so we know how much health we have left otherwise wonderfull game!! ill keep playing to see how it changes

Really great idea for a game :-) A few suggestions: 1. Destroyers seem to suddenly move really, really fast sometimes when they detect you- they go from zero to right on top of the sub. They sit around too much, imo, but then go hyper-active, which just feels weird. 2. If they fire a torpedo, play a warning sound (IRL, torps are heard on sonar). 3. I know it's not realistic, but strafe with Q and E would make moving around a lot less of a hassle sometimes. 4. Going to periscope depth takes too darn long, same with diving. I know IRL it's not fast, either, but it's a game and I'd like it faster. 5. Some sort of "stealth bar" showing how sneaky you're being would be awesome. 6. Add enemy boomers and attack subs and minefields, plus a big challenge of trying against a carrier's screen (random sonobouys, heh), and you have a very sweet game here. 7. The art's not really that important, although it'd be nice to not always be in fog.
These are great suggestions! I know that I'm definitely going to do a sequel to this game, but I'd like to not make it consecutively to this one and first do an unrelated game instead.
It will most certainly happen though.

Like a lot the game, can you add another N,S,E,W when the periscope is turned so you can know where it is aiming, also you can add the depth information, i know it's not helpfull for the game but adding information like that or instruments will make the game more interesting. Finally why the enemy torpedoes are faster than the sub' ones? Please add a figt against other submarine. Thanks for the game

doing above-water visual aiming is much easier than doing below-water radar aiming... is this supposed to be the case?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
awsome but it would be cool if when you die it shows a submarine falling into a dark abyss
just so you know i havent played this yet :l

I love the feel of the game. Good gameplay foundation - ascend, descend, additional torpedo aiming. I didn't like how enemies detected me from far away even though I was submerged, also they killed me quite quickly without me finding out I was being attacked. I'ma fave the game and come back later to see if I'm getting my submarine action on.
Thanks! I did some work on how much warning you get when an enemy ship is attacking. Now when your actions alert an enemy ship, it will flash red as if sonar'ed.

Last eney destroyed charghed the edge of the map and got stuck on it so I coulden't kill it. But she still killed my when I cam closer.

very good, so far. i do miss some more boat like behavior, instead of a brake, i really need to be able to reverse the engine. furthermore i would suggest the classic engine speed setting: slow - half - flank - ...

Warning for 'shallow sea' and 'enemy ship sited would be nice'. Periscope (and normal?) view should be able to be freely rotated.

Other things. What does holding Z do? I know releasing it fires, but what does holding it do? Louder explosions from depth charge near misses would be good. Some blips when a destroyer is scanning you. Passive vs active sonar (your sonar is just active, but passive should be able to detect ships from a fair range - unless they are running silent).
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Good start. Things to add - N, S, E, W (and heading) to the radar map so I can see what heading I'm sailing. V - climb to periscope depth. P - Magnified periscope view. When steering, it should turn me as long as I have forward velocity, not just when I accelerate. Pressing down arrow when stationary should make me move astern. Currently I'm stuck rammed into the side of the last destroyer. Torps don't work at 0 range. And I'll second the call for bigger maps. This game play stuff is probably more important than adding more detailed scenery. The scenery seems fine to me.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Intricate enough the Ascend and Descend is cool but could you have made bigger maps and better scenery the 3D is great tho. So over all a nice game with just abit of improving then it could be totally awesome
...And here I was afraid the maps were already too big! Thanks for your constructive comment, some trees and buildings on the cliffs and islands would be a good idea... maybe even some underwater stuff? I can see to adding some scenery to the maps and tweaking them for increased awesomeness... after I get some sleep of course! :D
