Team up with friendly squid to fight off Jelly Fish

Nice game. I like the squid theme and the 3d models. It would be nice if the small squids could swim as fast as you, waiting for them to catch up to you is annoying. The music is also nice.
Neat game! The only thing is that it would be nice to have something for the player do other than just move around. I liked the idea of only letting the friendly squid attack, so maybe just having some waypoints or goals for the player to go around and discover would help keep the game from getting too repetitive.
Nice! I would say it's a little slow-paced for me but it's a cool game nonetheless. Music was great too.
pretty cool, 2.5D games are always nice to see, The gameplay is pretty much ok, but its a bit repetitive, maybe if you could attack the jellies with the help of the small squids it would give this game more things to do.
The game really encapsulates the theme! Good job :D
Art style feels a bit rough, but it fulfills its purpose. The music, sound effects and general mood where on point for an underwater experience.
I had a really hard time figuring out how to kill the squids. Then I noticed that the small ones where shooting bullets. I only noticed this when a bulled went in front of something else, but this is not a fault on your part. I am color blind and that bullet just blends in with basically every color for me :p
Keep it up.
Loved the music, quite relaxing, it was really fun to play. I kept wanting to go deeper and see what I could find. This deep ocean mystery is a nice concept to go back to. My suggestion would be to add a feel of strength or power to the friendly squids, that could be like adding more, and having them possibly die too, or just making their shots stand out more. Anyways really liked it, nice job.
Thanks, appreciate the feedback. I like the idea of having more varied or interesting friendly squid but ran out of time. I live in Texas where we lost power for half the week! I will check out your game.
fun game, the music was absolutely incredible!
nice, relaxing game!
Cool game, but it didn't launch the first few times I clicked play. This is a unique interpretation of the theme.
Love it if you'd rate my game
The game is very relaxing. Interesting concept and implementation, but the background looks too simple. It would be nice if you added a parallax effect. If you want, please rate my game.
