Super fun movement mechanic in a simple, easy to pick up racing game! Love the flat-shaded art and good auditory feedback. I'd love to see more level variety, and maybe a few different types of obstacles. But overall, excellent work!

i really like the way the way the pufferfish looks, its quite cute, despite not being a fish.
and the mechanics were fun enough that i had fun even if most of the levels felt the same.
also im not blaming you for this, but pufferfish aren't fish.
i can't blame you for thinking this, we as a society have been indoctrinated from a young age to believe that pufferfish are fish, which they are in fact NOT! THEY AREN'T EVEN FISH SHAPED. They dont have fins they dont have nostrils they are nothing like REAL FISH. I am putting no fault for this grave mistake of thinking pufferfish are real fish onto you, i get it, even i up until very recently believed pufferfish are fish. until i learned they are not. even if they have fish in their name they are not fish but puffers. just puffer.
cool game anyways just needed to vent my frustration surrounding pufferfish out.

Developer

Haha :D Thank you for playing!

It's cool seeing another racing fish game. I love the cute artstyle and it was fun going through all the loops. I first started spamming the mouse to increase my speed, but I went too fast and missed the rings sometimes. :D Overall, Really fun to play.

Developer

Thank you! :D

I got them all under 25 sec :P Hard to control at first coz the mouse is too sensitive but I did got use to it.

The art is super cute <3 an easy 5/5

Developer

Thank you ^^ Good job getting under 25 sec :D

Nice little game. Swimming felt good after some attempts and getting a hang of it, racing to the rings was quite satisfying . Good job!

Thank you ^^

Fun game! I really like the graphics and sound design, and the controls are good too. Nice work.

Developer

Thanks! :)

This was really cute and fun. The movement, although is quite uncommon, felt great. Congrats.

Developer

Thank you ^^

I'm quite surprised to see this game supporting ultrawide resolution, dashing as a pufferfish never looked so good and satisfying.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! Glad it worked for you since I made sure the different UI elements scale alright to different aspect ratios :)

I love the vibes of this game! The model, the colors, everything is so cute!

Such a cute and fun game ! I complete all 3 races :D under 30 secondes B). Good job !

Thanks for playing and good job! :D

I really like the graphics/shading of the game, the controls feel very fluid and I picked it up pretty quickly and the music is very cachy. The only thing I wish for is a little more variety in the levels, but for a game that was only developed in a week, thats unresonable to ask for.

Overall a very fun and good submittion :)

Developer

Thank you! ^^

Love the clean flat color style of the 3D graphics! The fish is so cute ^^ Very satisfying to get little bursts of speed and watch him swim. It was a little hard to control if I missed a ring though, especially when aiming upwards it was a bit tricky to figure out his exact vector direction, so sometimes I'd miss the rings by only a slight amount and have to quickly backtrack.. Maybe a little crosshair display could have helped with that. But with a little luck, I was able to get pretty fast and perfectly navigate the rings! I was using the "spam click" strategy rather than charging up with precision. Pretty fun! Would be really cool to see an expanded version with more fishies racing! With a lighthearted cute game like this, something like 'Fall Guys' comes to mind where all the puffer fish get to bump into each other and have some shenanigans trying to get through the rings first haha.

Nice work and congrats on your first published game!! Going for a 3D web game I'd say this is a huge success!

Developer

Thank you! Yeah I should improve the math in the dash, got a bit lazy :D Oh multiplayer with multiple pufferfish bouncing around would be super funny! I'll def try it out when I'm brave enough to learn multiplayer in games, thank you for the ideas.

 remined me of that one minecraft xbox 360 elytra minigame, really fun! a little bit more variety would have been nice but I guess you can't ask for much in one week, great job on modelling everything!

Developer

Thank you! :D

Its surprising how many strategies you can do with one button, good job! Very replayable and the art style is really cool, very pleasing to the eyes lol. Not to mention that this is your first published game :0. Same critique about level similarity as other comments have said, I would also like to see more stuff in the levels (maybe a few other sea creatures swimming around and stuff).  I finally achieved 20 seconds on Seaweed Forest.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the kind words and feedback! ^^ That's a good idea to have different sea creatures swimming around in the levels, I actually wanted something like that originally but decided to keep the scope small :D In future updates perhaps

Submitted(+1)

Good idea to keep the scope small at first!
