Shelldiver

Enturtening

Fun incremental game to finish in an afternoon. Game feels good, it doesn't drag on, nothing groundbreaking but still a fun time.

CLEAN af incremental game. kinda boring on mid-game but super exciting at late game. worth the money. recommend at cautious 7/10

very fun game for social anxiety people, I very like

Shelldiver is so cute, you'll feel bad when you realize how forgettably mid it is, even for an Incremental. It would have worked if rebuilding your fishing village felt cozy, but as it is you can't even interact with most of the cute turtles, they're just strangers milling about. The fishing mini-game is more about managing your inventory or your limited ammo/charge, which often feels more tedious than motivating. It's not a simplified Dave the Diver, it's just... less fun. They did do well with their decision to give you progressively harder levels (deeper depths) with more valuable jellyfish so at least you have some visual variation. But runs can be underwhelming in mid- to late-game because even though you have more ammo and more oxygen, stuff just STOPS spawning after a short while--until you get a bunch of late-game upgrades to increase spawn rate. Until then, you'll deal with the frustrating experience of treading water, waiting for SOMETHING to spawn for you to collect. (Were they secretly trying to make an idle game? It's such a confusing choice.) The skill tree is mostly well-designed but it gets a bit grindy at the end, forcing you to go back to earlier levels to get a bunch of resources to unlock secret upgrades--they literally just show "???" so you have no idea what all the effort is even for. And, spoiler, it was not super satisfying to get that final unlock because my good will had already been worn down by then.
