Man, I can't believe that this made it into Steam all those years later in 2023! I do have an original copy myself, but the problem is the fact that it has awful load times and barely even worked on my computer nowadays. But thanks to this game, it's now playable on modern hardware, and the best part is the fact that the load times are like instant here. It still has its fair share of bugs and glitches here and there, particularily in the minigames, and Deep Dark Sea should have been much larger with more dive sites to offer, and more difficulty and yes, death means nothing in this game because you don't lose lives or the treasure you've collected. Aside from that Deep Dark Sea is the closest thing Living Books has to a real game itself, though it is relatively easy. I wonder how PeanutButterGamer's going to react to seeing this here.
