the movement was alright but sometimes it felt weird. But otherwise great game

Developer

Thanks!

Pro: fish movement, however unrealistic (fish are much better equipped to counter their own inertia), is pretty fun and also sort of funny.

Con: ocean depths, however realistic (vast and mostly empty), were not fun to traverse at times - everything is so empty I can't even tell if I'm really moving.

Result: pretty solid.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Filling an ocean proved difficult with my work periods.

The game is cool And I loved to drift with the fish

Thanks! The high speeds certainly allow for some interesting movement. Maybe I'll find a way to incorporate it into the gameplay some more in a future jam.

I liked the graphics but the movement felt and enemies felt a bit unfinished. But I read about your greatest enemy in comments and I now understand :D.

Developer

I'm glad you liked the graphics! Definitely prioritized art over gameplay, but it was still worth the experience for what I did do.

The world felt quite large and I liked the art you have created for the game. As for gameplay, there is not much. Movement feels very nice and fast.

Maybe you have to eat food to stay alive, but you always need more/better food which you can find deeper? Something like Hungry Shark Evolution?

Anyway, good job on creating this for this jam :]

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Good world for exploration but main character can't be killed by enemies.

Developer

Thank you for playing. Procrastination is my greatest enemy and leaves much to be unfinished.

Yo! This feels like if fishes were straight up from tokyo drift. xD But it is very fun to play 5/5 slammed into the enemies with millions of km/h but u know. usual stuff ^^

Developer

Thanks for playing! Had the speed set high while working on other stuff and decided it was too fun to take away.
