HAHA i was like it's nostalgic for old android users but suddenly the bird went underwater and i was flabbergasted! Really cool way to transition. I think you'll love my puzzle mystery game too.

How does your game fit the theme?
In the game you need to dive deeper into the sea to gain more points.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Some pieces of code were taken from a youtube tutorial "Make Flappy Bird in 5 Minutes" by Sasquatch B Studios. Assets that I did not create can be found in the credits section on the game page and in the game itself.

Well polished! The concept is cool, it's a nice revisitation of Flappy Bird. I enjoyed playing it. Keep it up :)
Great idea and great execution. Only wish that the difficulty would ramp up faster. It was really fun!
Confused at the beginning I quickly became addicted to the game when I figured out what was going on. Nicely spinned on its head concept and cool use of a theme for such a simple game. Great job ;)

Fun twist on flappy bird! Took me a bit before I realized about the diving part at all, but that's just my problem. Very fun entry!
I was playing Flappy bird for 10 minutes before realizing what the text was telling me. Nice twist!
Brilliant Game! Here are my Takeaways!
- The Game's feature of diving down to get more points is well thought out, and it was a good idea to include air bubbles along the way :)
- The Gameplay loop is simple, yet addictive; Surface, Down Down Down, Avoid some dripstones, Dow, Low on air, Go up UP UPPP, Ahh Air - Repeat
- The 1 main issue with the game is that there is no real "motivator" to keep the cycle flowing; There is nothing that compels players to keep playing beyond 10 points.
So There you have it! Brilliant Game, Well Executed, has a LOT of potential :D
Fun music paired with undeniable gameplay. While the influence is obvious, the gameplay loop is very distinct from flappy bird, with new variables bringing elements to the table that fundamentally transform the experience. One of the most fun games I've played in the jam!
Super game. Wonderful graphics and musical effects. Very funny)
Lovely take on the good old flappy bird concept, combined with the theme! Can't help to love these "simple" gameplay :D Nice Job!
The game is pretty fun, and was really cool when I realized that you can dive, at start I just played flappy bird normally the first 2 mins, but the rocks under water just cut which was really weird, just have them be like circles and not like rectangles, so it's not weird when you see them cut, also there was a glitchy line between different layers of water and at start, the background should move slowly backwards to look better, currently it's just locked to the camera, which looks okay for basic parallax, but it would look much better if you just did the parallax correctly.
659 Hit Rock bottom! :D The Game is Actually REALLY cool designwise! At first i thought that its just flappy bird, where is the diving :D but then i understood (maybe explain your feature a little better, because user like me are dumb :D) but damn this was actually ALOT of fun! Thanks for participating and making such a great game in just a weak!
