I really liked the atmosphere of the game and the mechanic and story is really unique, great job! I did wish the light around the player was a little larger, or maybe show the level lit up for a second after respawning, as I would forget how the level was spaced out and it made it harder than it needed to be. But I thought the levels were well designed, not too difficult but made you think for a minute. Story is also pretty funny. When the fish dodged the fisherman but couldn't resist a worm, I felt that. Must be scary being a little fish in the ocean. Awesome job!

Hey thanks for playing our game! So happy to hear you enjoyed the mini storyline with the fish and the overall atmosphere, that was something we made sure to nail as we were polishing! Also glad to hear you found the levels reasonably balanced, we did our best to design the levels as a means of preparing you both for the arcade mode and the challenge level.
On the note of showing the level lit up on respawn, definitely our bad for not making this as clear as it should be, but if you open the pause menu in game and click "Replay Map" it actually restarts the level with the introduction dialogue and the map lit up, so we left that option available in case people needed to look at the map a second time while playing. We figured we should make respawning snappier and leave reviewing the map as an option, but didn't make that option as clear as we could've, apologies!
Congrats on your submission as well and thanks again for trying our game out :)
