“The Cleaner of the Depth” is a fun adventure inside a crocodile’s dark mouth, where shadows lurk and loud breathing echoes. You’re a tiny cleaner bird—fast, brave, and nimble—darting between giant teeth! You scurry with your little feet, and you can even leap to the upper jaw and run upside down—whee, so cool!

The teeth in the mouth sing their own tunes. Healthy teeth ring long and clear—ding-dong, like a tuning fork—but they’re crawling with microbe colonies, tiny settlers giggling and building little dirt castles. You can eat them—the bird loves these tasty microbes. Sick teeth, though, grumble short and sad—bzz-bzz, as if angry. But beware! Touch a sick tooth, and the crocodile snaps its jaws—snap! Darkness swallows you, all goes quiet, and the crocodile sheds crocodile tears.


Your goal: be a nimble bird! Run across healthy teeth, gobble up microbes, jump to the upper jaw, flip upside down, but don’t touch the sick teeth. If you succeed, the crocodile will cheer up, open its mouth, and you’ll dash out into the sunshine, where you both enjoy a happy life—with clean teeth and joyful chirping!

Bravo!

Stunning art. The gameplay is a little clunky, but overall it's a very unique experience - unbelibbable that this was done for a game jam!
