Very autism friendly and great fun

Writing based on the reaction of my autistic son (mother writing on his account as he’s unable too) We struggle to find things for Liam to keep his occupied and excited as he’s high functioning but playing this game he is having a blast, the music is very soothing for him abit like a sensory room in his rest bite care. This game is very important for people with similar problems who struggle in life, VR is a great way to explore the world and new ideas for people who can’t travel. Highly recommended for everyone at any age based on watching Liam play.

First impressions weren’t good

I’m playing on Quest 2 and the graphics look pretty poor from a technical perspective. The texture maps on some of the sea creatures are extremely low resolution and blocky. The lighting is flat giving the world an almost 2D appearance. The movement system feels like driving a camera around. The graphics and the movement system combine to make for an experience that I didn’t find immersive at all. The first scenario left me wondering what the target demographic is. It seemed like something for very young children, well under the age of 13, too young for VR. I like the concept and I like the environments shown in the trailer, but based on what I’ve seen so far I can’t imagine this game delivering anything like what I was expecting. Update for the developers: Thanks for the detailed explanation about the graphics. I also didn’t understand that I was one of the dolphins as you explained in a reply to another review. I had refunded the game, but I just repurchased it to give it another chance. I’ll have to give it a lot of time now since I don’t think you can refund twice. :D It’s definitely getting better…

The game starts out like a nice easy going game, no monsters, no sharks after you. The title photo is much more colorful than the actual game and most of the game is in hazy two tone in a futuristic human ruined ocean. Plastic beach I was perplexed because it's really a cave and no plastic anywhere. There wasn't enough messages of the problems the oceans are having as far as sea life being affected. An occasional animal you need to free from some trash. As the game goes on you start going down deep tunnels and it turns into underground buildings that if you are claustrophobic might trigger you. The game goes from sea creatures to dodging zapping red orbs and you constantly have to maneuver through sonic blasting towers that sound like Darth Vader and I found the game to be anxiety triggering and not anymore much about sea creatures in the ocean. Mostly just underwater corridors and collapsed buildings to find your way through. I finished it to see the end but I feel disappointed. It's a long game, which is great, and you can go back to previous levels and overall it was good. The music is excellent and sets a mood and I did enjoy swimming around and looking in every corner of the different areas. I have chronic pain and the floating sensation is therapeutic. It was relaxing until I see that menacing red orb or flashes of red waves and know I have to maneuver it to move on.

Love the game, but...

I love this game, it's so unique, particularly when you discover that you're a dolphin! You can spend hours exploring the beautiful seascapes, evading drones, and figuring out how to disable generators. When I let my friend try it, she quickly fell in love with it. My only issue is that of all the treasures I can't find the gold vase in Poseidon. I've looked all around the area it's supposed to be in, according to the guides for the original platform. I can tell that it's there with echolocation, but I can't get close to it. There are unbreakable rocks in the way. Is there a plan to make it accessible to Quest users? Or is there a hidden passage that I'm missing?

In my twenties Ecco the dolphin on PS2 really stimulated my imagination. Then, this game came along…..and took me right back there. I can’t tell you how much time I spend here in these waters. I don’t care how glitchy some of the moves are. I don’t care if some of animals are pixelated. Every environment is visually stunning. The background music is nice and mellow. Good job with the underwater sandbox.
