Wow, this was truly unique. I love the hand-drawn art style, and the music fits so well. The inclusion of the bell as your oxygen levels deplete was such a great call, as it added a sense of urgency and dread. Great, great work!

PygoscelisWow, the art in this is amazing! Did you hand draw all this? Reminds me of Don't Starve. The atmosphere you created here is top notch and your SFX and music go with the game perfectly. Nicely done!
Would appreciate it if you checked out my game too!

Electro Clash - Stefan BartoloI just fell in love with the artwork. The whole game looking like a painting and using the theme in such a way. Just wow. Even though I haven't played Don't Starve. The art style reminded me of that a lot. And that makes your game so much unique that it stands out in the crowd. So many times I would grab more things than I should. Hahah. I think you should use a screenshot of your game as the main picture. That would attract a lot more people. Thanks for creating such a unique game. Sometimes, near the starting place, I would jump so high from the water. I don't know if it was intentional cuz of the weight that I was carrying. But still what a great, unique, and polished game. Thanks for submitting it! (BTW, I think this was a way too good of a game. This is the first game I would be giving 5/5 in all categories. Really happy I found such a game.)
I would really appreciate it if you could play and rate my game too. Thanks a lot!

Neo WaveMain character looks a lot like Luci from Disenchantment. Was that intentional?
I really like the art style of the game. I would love to play more games with this look. I sometimes felt like I had to take dives too much on faith that I'd make it back up. Really pretty, liked the calming music, good job.

A Scullion's SchemeThis game is great! The art is wonderful, and the music was pretty good. I have a few suggestions for if you expand on this game. There should be a way to get oxygen back in the deep waters, and a map would be nice, too. Besides that, I think this is a wondaful game, and I'm impressed you did this in a week!

One Less BoîteThe art styles really cool, I also had the bug where I shot into the sky, but I was about to run out of oxygen so I didn't complain lol

Rising Smokecool game! had a nice mechanic and I liked the visuals a lot! I collected all the objects but wasn't really sure what to do past that. Also, one minor bug, I noticed when I came up under the pier, I was skyrocketed into the air. Nothing major, just thought you should be aware. Great job!
I'd appreciate it if you could play/rate my game as well! :)
Brilliant graphics! Reminds me of a children's story book :) Goal was intuative too, without need for instruction

Idol's TowerHi! I love the art and the mechanic kind of remind me of my own submitted game, althought its a diferent approach!
I think it's a really original mechanic and it really fits the theme. Is there a way to release the objets you have on the dock to release weight? If there is I couldn't find it.
Anyway, awesome job!

Froggy´s QuestHi! I really enjoyed this game! It's been one of my favorites from this jam so far. I loved the art and the take on the theme. I collected all the objects but was unsure of what to do next. I wanted to weigh myself down and try to go down to Hell but I couldn't pick objects but up or anything. Please let me know if there's more I can do. I really want to see all of this game.
