How does your game fit the theme?
You are a little fish that tries to dive down as far as it can.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code. I did not make all of the assets from scratch.

I like the downwards flappy bird idea but it's way too hard at the moment. Since you don't really have control of the fish's horizontal position some times you are just stuck waiting for a gap so you can go through (especially with the anglerfish since they have a very similar speed to your fish) and the parts where multiple fish would cross one after the other without a gap were nearly impossible. Also I found it a bit weird how you can go under the screen if you fall too fast.
I do believe it could be a great mobile game with a bit of polish though!
Interesting idea, the controls don't feel very good though: It would be better if the velocity would be set to 0 when pressing Space before adding the jump boost, right now you have to press multiple times when falling with high speed (you can also boost yourself up very high after pressing space a couple times).
The game fits the theme.
Fun game! There isn't a numerical value for how deep I got but it had layers with 4 rows of fish xD The difficulty seemed hard from the start. I feel like it would do better if it curved so that its easier at the start and gets more difficult.
As the others stated, its rlly hard to play in the beginning. Way to much fish! :D Maybe it would help, if the player can change the direction, the fish is "jumping".
The game is great! I would say however it would be better if there was progressive difficulty as it was very difficult to get a hold of the controls first and once I did manage there were way to many fish to avoid when just starting.
The core gameplay is really fun! And the game fits the theme really nicely.
But there is room for improvement in some other aspects: the background graphics and score color could be improved (score color is hard to see over the darker parts of the ocean). I also think that a few sounds would go a long way polish wise.
