Just a simple pixel art game where you're a diver swimming in the ocean. Come on in, the water's fine. Surely there's nothing dangerous down below, right?...Right...?Water's Fine is a procedurally generated diving game created in 2018 by a single game developer simply known as "OWCH" or Chloe on itch.io. In the game, you play as Wave, a diver seeking to dive to the bottom of a deep trench. With every descent, the game randomly generates a series of obstacles, enemies, and items for the player to navigate or collect. Once you've collected some treasure (represented by bags of money), you can spend it on upgrades at the shop boat manned by a dog.The game can be purchased here.

comment
Early Game Hell: The game is at its most difficult when you're just starting out, as you have no manner to defend yourself, you die in a single hit, and Wave can't hold their breath underwater for very long. However, accumulating some treasure and purchasing upgrades will make the game less stressful in short order.

Ability Required to Proceed: On some occasions, you will be met with a collection of rocks that completely block your path. In such instances, which get more and more likely the deeper you dive, you need bombs/bomb shells to break through and advance.

To prevent it from being an Unwinnable area without a Safety Bubble, the Boneyard gives you nothing but air bubbles when breaking blocks, since your Oxygen Meter drains so quickly. Also, in the event that the player doesn't have the Magic Bomb, regular throw-able bombs are plentiful.

Anti-Frustration Features
 Water's Fine (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3
comment
Anti-Frustration Features: The game is certainly difficult, but there are some concessions that make dives a bit easier. If you're just short of the amount of money needed to purchase something, sometimes the dog shopkeeper will give you the item anyway. To prevent it from being an Unwinnable area without a Safety Bubble, the Boneyard gives you nothing but air bubbles when breaking blocks, since your Oxygen Meter drains so quickly. Also, in the event that the player doesn't have the Magic Bomb, regular throw-able bombs are plentiful. If you purchase a VIP Pass, a shop that appears before every boss encounter will become available that lets you purchase Hearts, Bomb Shells, and Air Bubbles. The game gives you a free Safety Bubble before every boss battle.

Instructive Level Design: On occasion, you will find bombs lying around in the ocean. Very often they are placed right next to blocks, and if Wave approaches them, their fuse will ignite. If the bomb is next to a block when it explodes, this will teach the player that they can use bombs to break blocks. The game also displays a prompt of a key/button when you approach bombs, indicating that you can pick them up and throw them. In a similar vein, when fighting the Merfolk Hero, they will spit bombs at you, which you can pick up and throw back, indicating that you can also use them to damage enemies.
