Theme interpretation
We took hybrid quite literally and created a main character that is the hybrid of a fish and a boy. Kinda like a superhero. Except bad.

The concept of hero with balance of water and dry is neat, cool audio!

Love the water / drying mechanic! Had a few problems jumping, sometimes it would jump higher than others, i also think the water "bar" should increase faster

I really like the concept of having to complete each section of the level with a binary goal in mind. Very cool idea.

I loved the music!  The little robotic "FIskBoi" was hilarious.  The jump sound was a bit grating though.

Overall the platforming mechanics are a bit basic but they do OK.  The above water/underwater requirements were a bit interesting, but overall it felt like I just had to stop playing the game for 5-10 seconds every time my meter was running low.  If more of the platforming had been underwater, and if the meter filled up a bit more quickly, it might have been a bit better.

Thank you for the feedback! :) We are going to continue developing this game, and the "pausing for 10 sec" issue is something I agree needs fixin'. The audio mixing is also a bit unbalanced (especially in the web version).

The game has a good soundtrack and mechanics that are polished! 10/10!!
