It was awesome to see a competitive 2 player game submitted. Both themes matched perfectly. Controls were a bit slow as i expected fish to react quicker in the water.
This is an amazing game that you guys have created! The art style is quite original, the music really fits the game, the ambient water sets the scene quite well, and the gameplay is intense! I had heaps of fun playing this, great work guys!
Very pleasing home screen with one simple animation. Consider turning cursor off -- don't need it on screen. I wonder if a graphic representation of score would be better than the distracting numerical score counter?
Loved the bear! Post game, adding more animation would be cool, e.g. animate water caustics. Good overhead camera for 3D feel.
"eating" things in the stream didn't seem to give any reward? (I don't the the score got bumped up for that?)
Overall, a well-executed idea.

It took me awhile to realize that other fish was another player! I only wish i had someone to play it with, I think that would have made it more fun then solo. Good effort that fit the themes! Just be careful that Coulton doesn't come after you :'D
a volume slider would have been nice, as the music is very loud.
giving the player the ability to move backwards would also have been helpful in collecting the insects, as picking them up was very finicky
Great work guys, a real solid effort that fits the theme well. Just wish i could vote.
