The game is quite good for a first project, simple and “complete”.

Few suggestions:

Add progress bar to loading screen
Animation does not show final frame(s) when hitting an obstacle. This creates sense of “unfairness”, as the game displays your fish far away from the obstacle yet you lose.
Maybe add concept of “lifes” to make more room for gradual difficulty increase
Game spams console with errors: “RenderPass: Missing resolve surface for attachment 0. Are you tring to resolve a bindMS rendertarget?” (I play on Firefox / Windows)

Oh wow, thanks for the quick response! About the lives: we’re planning to add an option to watch an ad or pay coins for a second chance. The animation idea is a great point: do you have any suggestions on how we could approach that? I’ll also take a look at the error. Thanks again, man. And where would you recommend a progress bar?

Presumably look at the order of operations, maybe move collision detection after the scene drawing. I have no idea what your code looks like, so can’t help more, sorry.

where would you recommend a progress bar?

When I click “Run game”, I see empty screen for a few seconds before the game fully loads. Look at many other web games here, many have a loading bar on that screen.
