In the first seconds you try not to touch the fish, and then you realize what you need)) Good game!

Very cool game, had fun playing it. Congrats on finishing it in time!
EDIT: ok nvm I got it - you need to bounce DOWN off the fish, now it makes sense. Confusing, but kinda fun. Leaving the original comment for people who might get similiarly confused.

It seemes bugged: the guy moves up on the top edge of the screen for a while, then camera stops while he still moves, and the game is lost when he's out of the screen.
Great artstyle though, hopefully the game will be fixed.
Its hard to understand the controls to play this game, but great work and nice art style
It's like a reverse doodle jump! It is hard to tell where fish are going to be which made me feel like it was somewhat luck on how deep you can go, but as I got a little better at dashing to fish it helped a little bit. Overall good work and the art and music are great!
Loved the art style took a bit of time to figure out the controls though
The gameplay is a bit tricky, but the graphics are awesome, and the tiny intro sequence with the little *pling* making a splash really made my day
Took me a few tries to figure out how to play the game. Interesting concept
Nice game! I was confused at first on how to actually dive deeper but then found out you have to hit the fish to dive deeper. Could've used some tutorial prompt to tell players that as they would assume hitting fish would hurt you. Overall, fun little game! I like the intro cutscene as well!
The game is nice but lacks a little tutorial to explain the fact that you have to touch the fish. (one could think the opposite)
In addition, the camera is badly placed, we can't see where we "fall" and it's therefore complicated to touch the fish before dying.
When the game starts I find myself right at the top of the screen, sometimes I die instantaneously sometimes I'm just stuck. Sorry if it's because I don't understand how to play it... On the other hand I love the cute graphics and the little music
