How does your game fit the theme?
The game successfully embodies the theme of 'Diving Deeper.' The title 'DEEP DIVING' reflects the theme, and the game's pixel art, design, mechanics, and overall gameplay are all aligned with this theme.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, I have written all the code from scratch. However, I've used assets from freely licensed sites for the game's content.

Cool and relaxing game. My first idea was something like that so it made me happy to see your game :)
Can you try and rate my game ?
I have created a few practice games in the past, and this marks my first experience participating in a game jam.
Sure, I will.
Very therapeutic game, I liked it! You could benefit from a little boost ability to dive faster, and maybe a little bit of an upgrade to the tutorial system. However, this game gave me such a calming feeling which is so nice! Thanks for that!
Nice game, there’s room for improvements, but games generally take months or years to make, so this is wonderful as in 1 week!
Love the fact that it has a feeling of our game in it haha :D fun little game and worth pointing out to others. Enjoyed the gameplay :) gg
I find the art styles in the game don't really mix well and I also find it pretty hard to distinguish which objects would let me through and which don't. I also feel like holding shift is pretty useless if there's no stamina bar and would just prefer the normal speed be faster. But overall, pretty solid game!
You're welcome for the feedback! I have solved the minor issues. The concept of a stamina bar sounds intriguing and could definitely enhance the gameplay experience. However, I'm currently unsure about how it will seamlessly integrate into the existing game mechanics. If you could provide more details or clarify how the stamina bar will interact with other elements of the game, I'd be better equipped to offer guidance and suggestions.
I collected all the treasure and nothing happened, was there something else I was supposed to do? Also the fish go through the walls 0_0
Thanks for feedback!
Issues has been solved.
It could be much more than this! I remember playing a similar game but where you had to dive a sub. Don't remember the name but that was one of my fav childhood memory (of games of course).
Cool concept! I know you used free assets, but still I would recommend sticking to one art style.
Fun concept! Just wish there was something to spend the loot on.
i had a bit of fun, the conflicting art styles didn't help much, and the fact that getting hit once is basically a death sentence... isn't ideal. overall, it was good.
Fun game! I wanted to spend my collected items on upgrades, but it's a good start
Really nice concept! Simple but effective graphics. I do wish the audio was better mixed so that the pickup sounds for diamonds and rubies is not extremely loud. I also would have loved if the background music looped, since it helped establish the atmosphere of your game really well!
Thanks for feedback!
Really fun and easy to learn
I was surprised how well the level was designed! The gameplay was simple but really enjoyable too! Nice work on the graphics as well. Good work!

I had a great time playing your game and cant wait to see what you have to come in your indie game career!
Thank you for the fantastic feedback. As a developer, understanding both the positive and negative aspects in your feedback helps me make informed decisions about what to embrace and what to avoid in future suggestions. Your insights are truly valuable.
Your game is awesome! Very fun collection mechanics, cool varied fish, awesome level design! Some of the tiles glitch out a little and the music doesn't seem to loop, but overall extremely cool!
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Check out my game if you have the time! https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-10/rate/2236928
I liked the level design and the use of multiple layers to create a more realistic feeling world in a 2D game.
Thanks For Feedback!!!
