I really love the bloom effect, overall really good post processing, it would be very cool to see a weapon in the players hand and some kind of shooting effect. Although a highscore would be very fitting. Its for real a relaxing game with a nice pixel artstyle good job

Developer

thanks

I really liked the additional difficult of shooting the sharks! It really was a neat change for an obstacle dodging game like this! I loved the design too, with the pixelated look feeling completely natural with the gameplay. Maybe it's just my bad eyes, but I struggled to see the obstacles other than the sharks, making it a bit hard to dodge them. Great fun to play overall, though! Definately enjoyed this.

Developer

thanks man for playng this game

Submitted

No problem at all! Congrats on managing to get to 20 ratings!

Cool game :D I liked the fact that you need to shoot the sharks as well as avoid the obstacles to give the player more to focus on and not just be a simple flappy bird type game. I wish there was a score system as well as maybe even a high score so you can see how far you previously went.

Developer

thanks!

Really fun and relaxing game. the gameplay itself is really simple, but there is a huge amount of polish on it which makes it feel better to play.

Like the fish swimming across the screen, the post proccesing effects, the partical system in the background. It just makes the game feel more whole. also the background music is really good.
(I actually mad a very similar game in my game, which I think is pretty funny).

I just really wish there was a point system so I know how well I did.

Great game. Keep it up♥

It seems fun enough and looks good, but for the live of me I can't evade this giant sharks :O

Developer

its in how to play u click on them to shoot

Submitted

at first i dint know what think.  when you start descending and crash into something the game doesn't seem that fun. but when you avoid your first obstacle this game just starts to hit different. as you start to descend you have to avoid the hard to see opsicals. but there are 2 things that tie this game together. its you and the sharks and fish being neon.  and its the sound track. all of that and this game has an amazing omonis feel to it. your trying to not hit the platforms and your sniping sharks.  then you have moments when your just listening to the soundtrack and looking at the fish, waiting for the next obstical.

Developer

Thanks that was the plan all along and i am happy it achived the goal

Cool underwater atmosphere, though the cliffs can be a little hard to see. The gameplay is nice, but the fishes do it for me :)

Submitted

I don't know much about art but the graphics are sick

Developer

The art is bad but the post procesing makes it look good, thx

Submitted

Took me a minute to figure out how to play but once I did I was super into getting to the bottom. Great work!

Developer

Submitted

I died after a few minutes but it was still fun :)

Developer

Thx

Submitted

I didn't read the description so it took me a while to realise you should shoot the shark haha. I like balancing the movement and the shark shooting, kind of like a vertical Flappy Bird. Excellent music too! Good work.

Developer

thanks
