You are all so talented! I have played so many cool games in this jam,  but I know how hard it is to stand out from the crowd. Drop your game links below and I'll give them a play and drop a rating and comment on your page with my thoughts.

My game is The Ocean is Dead (https://itch.io/jam/comfy-jam-summer-2026/rate/4693795). If you fancy giving it a go too, I promise the cute fish will not disappoint!

Hi! I'd love for you to check out my game "The Ocean is Dead". I hope you like cute fish! D[<]> https://itch.io/jam/comfy-jam-summer-2026/rate/4693795

Brilliant game, I really enjoyed it! The art is amazing, and I enjoyed finding the little hints. Nice work!

Thank you so much! I wanted a way to implement "the instructions are a lie" without affecting the gameplay and thought I would base it in the story instead. "The Ocean is Dead", that's what they kept telling us! :D

There is a second good ending. Not sure which one you got! If you're keen to play again sometime, just wanted to let you know that I some backing tracks and more sounds! :)

Just wanted to let you know that I some backing tracks and more sounds! :) If you'd like to have another go, you could try only gathering rubbish, while collecting 1 fish a day to avoid being fired and see if you can find a different ending!

If you're keen to play again sometime, just wanted to let you know that I some backing tracks and more sounds! :)

Thanks so much for steaming the games and showing the jam devs some love! I fixed the bug you found and now future players can enjoy the game to its full potential. All the best!

This was awesome! I really loved the style and feel of the game. Great voice acting! :D

I actually came back to play this again today and really got into it! All of the tracks are really cool and the minigame is brilliant. Thanks again!

This was made during the Comfy Jam: Summer. Comments can be made on the submission page there: https://itch.io/jam/comfy-jam-summer-2026/rate/4693795

Otherwise, feel free to post here!

Fun game. I liked the voice acting a lot, and I liked trying to decode Marlon's dialogue and subtle context clues. The robot voice lag and stuttering did start to annoy me a bit, but I guess it needed to be very obvious. Nice work!

Thanks for playing! I wanted to add an endless mode where you could just explore, but had to prioritise. Adding some music and more sounds is a priority. I've just started using Chiptone and it's really great. It's not my specialty and I really should have tried to find a composer, but I was a bit nervous as it was my first jam. :)

Hillarious game! Amazing art. Loved the walking animations, the crowd, the minigames. 10/10. Only issue I had was when I exited and continued, two backing tracks were playing at the same time but out of phase. Looking foward to checking out some of the other games the team have made!

Thank you so much, I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I'll look into the bug and add a resume button as a backup. Music and sounds are not my forte, but next jam I plan on trying to work with a composer. During development, I listened to a lot of ocean sounds videos and got used to it, probably should have played silent so I could see that it really needs some backing track. Hope I can add a Fish Mogger easter egg in my next update! :D

Thanks for playing! After the jam I think I'll release the fish as an asset pack. :D

Cute game with great style. I love parallax backdrops! At one point I think I fell out of the world somehow, the game kept going by my cat was lost to the void! Great work!

Cute crab, I love it! I had fun and the music vibe really went with the game. I won't repeat them, but I agree with the feedback in the other comments. Art is great though!

I had fun with this, but yes, there not really that much gameplay! :D

I found out pretty early that you could overspend in the shop and made a tower so big that everything disappeared.

Enjoy this tree I made from fudge and umbrellas!

Without "the instructions are a lie" prompt, I think this would be a lot more fun. It was a bit frustrating at the start while figuring out what to do. Once I got going, I enjoyed it. Bonus points for fish art! Check out my submission about scubadiving, our tunas look like cousins! :D

Fun game! I liked the loss of language challenge which immediately made me think of Chants of Senaar, and decoding the orders was a good puzzle. I did also had some controls issues, e.g., not knowing where to click for the bowl, meat getting stuck in the wok. All the best!

Thank you! Yes, I played around with the day length a few times, but ultimately wanted people to get the chance to explore and just experience the dives. Moving forward I plan to add 1) an end day button, and 2) an endless mode for just diving and watching the fish. Hopefully that will please both camps! :)
