How does your game fit the theme?
You move deeper and deeper through the level. The player character also has a move where they dive downwards.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote the code and made the graphics. I used existing music from other sources.

So much fun!
Things I enjoyed ✔️
- This is one of the most fun games ive played this jam!
- Sprite work is very well done!
- Gameplay is polished
- Sound design is fantastic!
Things I would like to possibly see with your title. 🤷♂️
- Give a little help screen that runs the game down a bit on what your supposed to do. I understood what I was supposed to do, but just in case there are more hyper casual gamers playing it.
Overall 📓
Very good job on this title! Love the score system, I love the sprite work, the gameplay, everything! Good job!
Nice game! I really enjoyed playing it! One thing I would maybe changes is the amount of time you get by killing enemies since it's usually better to avoid enemies than killing them right now (I think) Also, the sounds and the visuals are great!
It's a fun game, the graphics are consistent and beautiful, at the beginning I didn't notice the effects of the bubbles but once you got it, it's entertaining, well done.
Fun, but would like more to do and less blind drops. In addition, a backdrop would really help with this games visuals. Good submission!
Now that I've rated yours, could you rate my game please? https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-10/rate/2236541
A solid entry with fun gameplay and appealing art. The game's mechanics align well with the theme, but enhancing the dive mechanic's impact and addressing UI scaling could elevate the experience.
really fun little game, made it to 800ft on the dot :D cool take on the theme and I enjoyed how the powerups were within the bubbles
Fun controls, cute visuals, satisfying sounds and mechanics. Not much to complain about here - what it does it pulls off perfectly except maybe that dive mechanic, i didn't feel like it was noticeably faster, have to add some kind of quick impulse and animation to make it satisfying
Will note some weird UI scaling on the game over screen, did not effect the experience or enjoyment so wont impact the score I leave but figured I'd let you know if you hadn't already been made aware
Pretty cool game! The controls are pretty solid, and the theme is used to good effect. The gameplay loop is simple and effective, easy to understand and challenging to get a firm grip on. My biggest nitpick is that the dive move is pretty understated - I couldn't really tell I was using it at first. It doesn't really seem to increase the gravity on the player character that much. I understand why that's the case on a game balance level, since the player character being a pogo stick and therefore bouncy is part of the challenge, but it does feel slightly underwhelming.
