I like the play>die>upgrade loops, though in this game It seemed like I lost everything I picked up after dying and going to the shop, do you actually have to swim all the way back up to keep it? I found the flashing effect on the shop and depth meter to be very hard to look at, but the rest of the graphics were very pleasant, as was the menu music.

Thats a nice take on this jam´s theme! Good artwork, liked that a lot! Only problem: The stuttering follow camera gave me some nausea, maybe thats something that can be polished?
Decent game, overall!
One of the better games I have played on this jam ;) unfortunately the UI glitches and sometimes you can't see how much jetpack I have :( I hope you will still work on the game, because I would love to play the fixed version :D
What a game!

Overall 📓
You did a great job on this one! Be very proud of this game! Because this is the best one Ive reviewed so far! 5/5 across the board! Good job!
That really took me back 30 years to my first Nintendo, especially the Audio FX :) I think it has great potential, but by biggest issue was trying to decipher the UI and text. I think maybe on a smaller screen might be easier to read. Well done.
Venturing into the depths was a captivating experience, with captivating aesthetics that drew me in. The gameplay loop had me hooked, and I appreciated the integration of controls into the background, a clever touch. The audio, while well-suited, could benefit from adjustable volume levels. The game's potential was evident, and I found myself yearning for retry buttons and some bug fixes to ensure a smoother playthrough
Really great game, feels like a very complete package for a game jam game. Good job!
Loved the sprite work, especially how the controls are in the background in the starting room. Audio balance was a bit loud for some sfx but overall pretty good!
i liked the graphics and the sound effects and you color palette and the ui is so great the idea is so cool but you need to fix some issues the game run to me then suddonly a blue screen appears and i need to restart the game idk why but anyway collconcept
