New updated version (V15)
added Harmless sea life that you see swim about randomly
added Coral Reefs here and there which has some activity going on there with some variations.
added Some more rooms (not a lot though) in other ship wreck.
added when accessing inventory/help etc oxygen will not deplete
I tried playing but at the first cube I wasn't able to progress - I rolled against it, but since I roll against a target number of 0 I'm not sure how I should be able to match that with a d6 (?). I went to other cubes and there it worked instantly. Maybe that first target number was a bug? Otherwise it worked fine for me, although I wished that invalid commands wouldn't cost oxygen. ;)
I'm afraid I don't understand how I'm supposed to progress. I am dead before I feel I got anywhere (having had to roll 20 times before even being able to deactivate the cube in the starting location, and having lost 18 hitpoints without having any way of defence during that time doesn't help).
The opening text tells me that there is obviously a lot of complexity in the game, but it is a lot of information and without any context at the start, it is difficult to retain that information. I'd really like to see an introduction that is a little smoother so that I can appreciate the depth of the game. Maybe in the form of a tutorial, or even a simple walkthrough of the very first section.
Anyway, that's just my response on the first attempts at playing it. As I didn't get far, I'll have to come back to this game later to make sure I can give it an informed vote.
Quick note to anybody else playing the game: download the Adrift Runner and run it separately, as the linked browser version keeps replacing the main window with the statistics window, thus hiding any responses to your commands.
Good job sir ! :)
Alien Diver v15 (Requires Adrift Runner to play it or can be played online)
On a scouting mission in a far flung solar system, your ship malfunctioned at the worse time and eventually crashed into an alien ocean.
Your crashed ship now lies on the bottom of an alien ocean. It needs repairs, and scans have shown a certain raw materials can be used to create the needed materials needed to do the repairs in order to fly again. Time is running out.. #adventure #scifi #textadventure #AdvJam2020

New and hopefully final build of the game. Fixed several more annoying bugs and minor ones. Game can be completed as intended now.
New Version is available. Fixed a major game breaking bug and a couple of minor bugs.
New build out, more bug fixes and now a Status window for those who cannot see all stats in status bar.
New build v7 is out, fixed some bugs, adjusted font size for better reading. Will be making some font color changes later for easier on the eyes reading next.
Once running Click on upper left of window File and choose Open Adventure and select Alien Diver Blorb. See commends to this post for how to save and load a saved game.
If you download this game you will need Adrift Runner to run and play it...http://www.adrift.co/download Choose Adrift 5.0 Runner (not Developer version). Your anti-virus might flag this as a virus but it is safe.
