Very nice art and good sound track. As for controls I would suggest make them a bit more responsive I noticed  that I would crash into walls a lot since I could not rotate without getting more speed instead or slowing down and rotating. Also well done on finishing the game and give mine a try as well ;)

Developer

Thanks for your comment! It's kind! :)

Submitted

Very cool game, had fun playing it. Congrats on finishing it in time!

Developer

Thanks! :)

Submitted

Nice, smooth and atmospheric.

Developer

I know that I am nice and smooth, but nobody ever told me that I was atmospheric ?!

Submitted

Great game for 2 days. I did get frustrated a lot because sometimes an obstacle sprite was used as background and sometimes it had a collider. I liked the music and art a lot

Developer

Thanks for your comment, and yes, I get that a lot, and I'll make sure it doesn't happen again for my next games!

Submitted

Wow! Very nice game! Good job)

Developer

Thanks! :)

Hi, 

First off I would like to say - Good Job. This is an amazing game for only being developed for 2 days. I rally liked the sound track it was relaxing and kind of misterious making the atmosphere better. The underwater part was amazing and beautiful to look at.

The only things I can say I had problems with are the paralax effect on the background - it made my head dizzy but I guess you like it and the fish. I died approximately 20 times before completing the game ( I guess it was a skill issue xD).

The game is amazing. If you can do this much in 2 days I can't imagine giving you 7. 

Developer

Oh, thank you for your comment, it's incredibly sweet! And I'm glad you enjoyed my game! :)

Submitted

It's hard to tell what is background, and what is a wall that you can't swim through. I also couldn't figure out if I could damage the enemies or not. The swimming controls were unique which I liked, and the art chosen was really good as well.

Developer

Hi, thanks for your constructive comment ! (And by the way, I'm really glad you liked the swim system!) :)

Submitted

I like the concept but it's also a little bit difficult because you can't see where the fish are coming from. The graphics are beautiful, but it is kind of difficult to see if the corals/background elements are swim-through. Otherwise, I quite enjoyed it!

Developer

 Hi! Thanks for your comment, and your opinion, it's kind! :)

Submitted

I like the idea on how going deeper going. I think with more stage this might be very satisfing.

Developer

Hi, thanks for your comment! And yes, it's kind of a really nice advice, but, unfortunately, I had only 2 days, and I didn't have enough time... :/

Submitted

This was very hard! Just because you can`t see the fishes from afar and always swim into them. But the atmosphere, the little intro video and the overall feel was very good and coherent. Well done in 2 days!

Developer

Thankssss! :)

Submitted

This is a simple and fun little diving game. The only complain is that it's a bit difficult to see what is in the background, and what is walls.  Overall a fine little jam game.

Hi, thanks for your comment, it's really kind! :)

Submitted

It looks very cool, but I didn't really know what to do

Developer

Hi! Thanks for your comment! :)

Oh gosh, I'm sorry you didn't understand what you have to do! In fact, you have to run away from the fish that will try to attack you, and you have to try to go deeper and deeper! :)

Submitted

The swimming feels pretty good, although I went VERY fast. Never managed to hit an enemy, and dying felt very abrupt and very punishing. Even though the graphics and music isn't made by you I love the overall aesthetics! Good work!

Developer(+1)

Hi! Thanks for your comment!

Oh, I'm so glad you liked the way you swam! I spent a lot of time on it!

Oh and, I'll admit, the reason you couldn't hit any enemies is because I originally wanted to put a combat system in the game, but I had to leave, and didn't have time to implement it... x)

Well, I'm glad you liked the game's graphics! :)

Thanks for everything, by the way, I tested your game, and it's very cool, and the pixel art is incredible!!

Submitted

Very good graphics (too bad they don't come from you), however I never managed to hit an enemy with an attack...

Developer

Thank you! Well, unfortunately, I draw extremely badly, but I think at the next game-jam, I'll do the graphics! :)

Oh and, btw, actually, it's just that I haven't had time to implement a combat system, so we just have to run away from the fish x)

Submitted

oh ok, don't forget to remove the animations next time XD

Developer

Nice advice x)

Submitted

Amazing graphics and loved the swimming mechanics!

Developer

Ohh, I'm so glad you liked the swim mechanics, I spent a lot of time on them! <3

And, thanks for the compliment on the pixel art, even though it's not from me! :)

Submitted

Pretty solid game, very good graphics and nice enemies :)

Developer

Thanks for everything!!! <3

Submitted

Great aesthetics!

Developer

Thank you! :)
