Size Increase: 5X Bigger (Based on Feedback) After sharing the design on reddit, many people said to make it BIGGER. They were absolutely right. The real creature this is based on is absolutely enormous, so El Gran Maja needed to match that scale.

Even while testing the game, watching it randomly swim through the ocean depths genuinely spooked me. This feedback driven change makes it feel like a proper threat and creates those heart stopping moments I was aiming for.Steam post image
