Nice game, it's a bit hard to tell what's background and what's not in terms of rocks, that's pretty much my only complaint. I like it! :)

Great entry, nice graphics and gameplay. Enjoyed!

this is a really good concept of a game but i wish there was a tutorial because i wasn't sure what to do. but otherwise great game good job i really liked it.

Really nice game ! It was quite hard to distinguish which rocks were bumpable and which ones were in the background, and maybe a little message at the begining of the game reminding you that bumping into fishes is the main goal would be helpful.

The game is magnificent! 

I love the probe, it's simple but I love the design. The 3D mix in a 2D world isn't always easy to make graphically coherent, and here it's a success.

Too bad there isn't a little system for upgrading the probe :)

Developer

There are auto upgrades at certain levels, but yes adding more and getting to choose upgrades would be more fun I think. Thanks much for your feedback. Glad you liked it.

The graphics in this were great. The gameplay was also awesome. The movement was snappy and fun, and the gameplay loop was enjoyable, although I didn't seem to be able to get past the sunlight zone. Maybe its just a skill issue :P. The music and audio was also rlly nice and made the atmosphere much more immersive.

Really nice visuals and audio.

I feel like some of the features/powerups could be better communicated (I have no clue what 'boost frequency does').

Neat simple little game. I wish it was more obvious about which obstacles  were in the background or not.

Great game! The gameplay is really fun, but it's difficult to tell which obstacles are in the background, and which are not.

The depths of the seed!

Things I enjoyed ✔️

  1. I love the graphics you went with for this game, it feels concise!
  2. Gameplay is alot of fun, its nice to bounce around the place!
  3. The gameplay loop is alot of fun!

Things I would like to possibly see with your title. 🤷‍♂️

  1. All I can think of is just implementing some ambience audio, some music to the game, and to have a small tutorial at the beginning so the player knows what the goal is.

Overall 📓

Great job on this game! Felt very polished which I appreciate! I love the concept of going deeper and deeper, it was a lot of fun! Great work!

Developer

Good execution ^^ I saw a shark moonwalking, 10/10.

Developer

Yeah the fish AI, if you can even call it that, could use some work.
