Another hit indie release heading to Switch, demo up now, this is one that popped up a couple of months ago on some websites and has been reviewing very well.
Anyone played it?

I've played a couple of hours of the steam version a few months ago.
It's pretty good. It's a weird mix of deep diving and running a sushi restaurant, complete with serving mini-games.
Has an odd sense of humour as well. I should probably go back to it.

Interested in this. I heard it gets a bit weird in a (similar game type which could be a spoiler) frog fractions way after a while.

Christian Donlan loved it.Reading the comments to the review, it seems that people will either love it or hate it.
I'm really into my woke indie pixel-art gooseberry fool, so my guess is that I'll fall into the former group, but I'll wait for it to arrive on Game Pass. It has 'coming to Game Pass' written all over it.

Just started this too. It's okay but I'm not sure if I'll stick with it. I quite like the diving but not so much the sushi serving. Early on but it feels like you dive for 2 minutes at a time, then there are lots of cutscenes and the sushi minigame before you dive again for another 2 minutes.
Might improve if I keep playing..

Dives get longer as you progress and upgrade your equipment, they quickly end up at around 20-30 minutes a time.

Chapter Three now.
I'm enjoying it and it's always risky to get more weight when I looted from the deep.

Completed.
I enjoyed it and I would give it a 8/10.
I'll finish it off to get the Platinum trophy later on.

I think it's a 7 for me! Starts to feel a mile wide and an inch deep by the end,loads of new things thrown your war that they don't really go anywhere with etc etc. Fun switch game to mess around with as a second screen,and I liked powering up the sushi shop by the end.
