The only reason I am not recommending Deep Under the Sky on Steam is due to how poorly it was ported over from a mobile system. It can be played with a single finger on a single button and, when it's cooperating, the uncomplicated play style is suited to that equally simplistic control scheme. The trajectory of the jellyfish-spore creature is locked from the start of the level and the tools used to alter its path, as...

I wonder if it's more accurate to say the space jellyfish is now my favorite aquatic or extraterrestrial creature. As far as I know the depths of our oceans are wondrous and alien enough that Deep Under the Sky could be playing out within them, far from any depth humans have been able to reach. Bounding from the safety of their nest, tentacles swirling in the current, attempting to fertilize a waking host before...

Don't buy this game. At least, not through Steam. This is a mobile port tried and true, and so faithfully ported from its home device the tutorials still refer to everything as "tapping." Not only this, but if you want to play it on android it's 4 dollars base price. Here, it's 10, which is an absolute rip off unless it goes on sale for pennies. Is the game itself bad? Not at all. In fact, it's fairly decent of a...

Extremely simplistic (1 button) puzzle game that would be barely tolerable on a mobile platform. PROS: -Art is ok -Puzzle setup is clean and varied by levels. -Very calm gameplay. CONS: -"Trial and error" gameplay that is extremely repetitive. Gameplay consists of you shooting these balls from the same starting location and trying to time a series of actions to hit targets (except you don't actually control the...

This is a recommendation meant only for a sale at a high discount. While the visuals and the overall implementation of the game concept were done very well, the gameplay itself lacks a bit of depth and smoothness. For my taste there should be more gameplay elements and less interruptions between the level goals. Although the background music matches the psychedelic graphics it gets quite annoying after a while....

In the undiscovered recesses of a faraway planet, beautiful and strange organisms live and breathe in a psychedelic Venusian world of dancing lights and metroid-like organisms. Similarly psychedelic to the visual style of the game is the soundtrack, with its equally as trippy and ambient qualities that build up and evolve with each successful move you make. Deep Under the Sky uses a one-button control system that...

Title: Deep Under The Sky Developer: Northway Games Category: Arcade Rating: NOT RATED Compatibilty: Windows, Mac Price: $9.99 Gameplay: Look at the gameplay video above for more gameplay. But this gameplay is pretty simple. All you do is press the spacebar to play. Basically what you do is launch jellyfish and try to hit all the switches in the level. But to get the switches you need to hit the bouncy areas or use...

It's a physics based puzzle where you try to sperminate some pods of future life placed in an underwater maze with your ejeculating jellyfish using repeated space button push which needs good timing. Reminds me of 'The Sparkle 2 Evo' watery motion feel and aesthetics combined with 'Angry Birds' shooting. Would be a great scrensaver. Головоломка с физикой про осеменение зародышей в лабиринте при помощи извергающейся...

https://youtu.be/5W7LTcKOGKU The colorful visual style is well realized but under served by the mechanics. The single button controls and no zoom makes far too much of the play space a mystery.
