The intro was really cool! FYI I could only hear it from my left headphone, it might be be but I’m not sure if you used Audio2D or something, just thought I should let you know. Really cool presentation, love the art and good job with the sounds. The ragdoll/physics swimming ended up looking really cool. Great job :)

Thanks for the feedback! I didn't take left and right audio into account when I was setting up the audio. I just fixed it. I'll release it and other changes in a new version after the jam is over.

The game has a weird vibe to it which made it very intriguing kind of like an underwater alice in wonderland. I love the hand drawn art style plus the audio is the best! This has to be the best Sound of Y'all game I've played yet! Great job!

Thanks! I like making games with a quirky/bizarre atmosphere so I'm glad it gave that impression!

this was surprisingly difficult (I might just be bad at this :D). I was glad for  the merchant fish and its rejuvenation! 

Developer

Thanks! Trust me, it's not just you. I made the game too difficult. I plan on fixing the difficulty after the jam.

I like the cute design of the fish with the hat.

I also love that there is a store where you can recover and upgrade. Nice job!

Developer

Thanks!

Physics based swimming, that's interesting! Like the hand-drawn graphics and the additional spell too!

I was able to confront the Devil of the depths, but it completely obliterated me. So many spawns!

Glad you liked it! Yeah, I should probably make the Devil of the Depth's spawning ability more balanced.If I ever expand on this game, I'll add in plenty more spells. Thanks for the feedback!

Good game :) The rag-doll fish body movement was quite novel. Also the game sounds were nicely done. Missed having some background music though. Nice that you were able to put in an upgrade shopping system as well. Well done overall!

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, it is a bit empty without music.

I liked the mechanics and it seems like there's a lot of potential here
