How does the game fit into the theme?
You are constantly being chased by an enemy fish that is trying to hurt you. You have no choice but to keep moving.

What premade assets did you use if any?
I used 2 open-source shaders from godotshaders.com: 1 for the godrays and 2 for the wind shader. I grabbed some free fonts from fontesk. A COG icon from feather icons to open up the settings menu. Other than that everything else was made by me or my wife.

Very nice atmosphere! I appreciate the effort put into the visuals and immersion. Only issue was that the background rocks looked like foreground rocks that block your path.

Developer

Ah I can see that now. The level designing happened in the last hour before submission so it came out a little rougher than I would have liked. I will lighten them up a bit, or darken the foreground ones. Thanks for the feedback :]

The art style and music are very charming and soothing. The glittery effects of the visuals complement the gameplay very well!

Ooh yeah it kind of reminds me of The Rainbow Fish childrens book!

The game really feels like it needs some audio BUT WOW... the hand-drawn art is beautiful! It gives so much character and reminds me of classic cartoons. I'd love to see more games with this kind of craft to the visuals!

I did make some music and background sfx but for some reason they won't play until you first touch the volume sliders in settings. It is only happening in the web build but there wasn't enough time to figure out what was wrong 😅

Thank you though! My wife drew all of the art for me and it was her first time doing anything like this. She did a great job!

Oh yep the difference is night and day, the FX set the scene and those strings work great! And love the team dynamic, keep up the good work!
