What an amazing experience. The art is absolutely stellar. The audio design is so immersive. The cutscenes are great and super charming.
The main gameplay mechanic is so simple, yet effective. It acts as a means to damage, but also makes you go really fast. This also promotes speed running of the game which is always a plus.
It was really neat seeing the fish change their expression as they go, even when Bubblyn inflates. I love the initial dopey happy faces they make at the start. So cute!
The camera also adjusts at just the right times for the fast-moving areas and the slow corridors.
There was one moment where there are two spinning eels, and I was wondering what might be their secret? I even returned back there after reaching the end to bring Booba back with me, but still, nothing happens. I feel like I’m missing out on some sort of secret… :3
Definitely a candidate for the best game of the jam in my opinion. This is incredibly special. I’m so glad I found and played this!
