This is awesome! Love the art style and player movement & abilities. The art style is super cute and the game feels really juicy. One of the best I've played so far :D

My main critique would be the enemies. They are all pretty similar in design and mainly just run towards the player. Usually, I only died if I accidentally ran into one.

Also making them less "bullet spongy" though with the other effects this isn't super important and mostly my preference (Btw love the way you've tied the permanence of their corpse and gameplay together with the bubble)

Overall I feel like with general polish (similar to Vlambeer games maybe) and more engaging enemies this would be fantastic. Amazing Job :D

Nice, nice, nice. I very much enjoyed the scrum bowl.  Fish with machine guns, awesome!

Submitted

Very cool game! I like it. It's also a pretty unique idea. If you have a chance, I would appreciate it if you rated my game. I only need 3 more ratings. Thanks!!

I enjoyed playing the game very much. I found there was a lot of chaos that made it harder to focus my aim on the baddies, and especially after pressing the space bar, a multitude of coloured bubbles accompanied by sound and noise heightens the senses....and make me want to play another game. Congrats, MegaBox1.

Great game, feels very polished.

Nice game I really liked it!!

Nice game I really liked it . And because you can blub even after you die. I had killed 5 whales before I died and because I of that when I did my final blub I got a new highscore.

ps: I think the moral is to never drop a machine gun in the ocean.

Thanks for playing! Yeah, that was a bug that I ended up keeping because it was pretty funny.

Very fun game! The graphics are charming. I appreciate how care went into details like giving each enemy unique sound effect, the camera shake and movement, and all the particles.

I await the update after the jam...would there? and nice/  music choice

Thanks for playing, there probably won't be any more updates - I've started working on a different project.

Extremely well-done and polished. I am assuming putting both the movement and attack as the same input was the "chaos" part of the game, and though it did make it a little more difficult and disorienting, it was very fun experience! 

Well Done!

Submitted

This game was a lot of fun! I liked the blub mechanic and how every fish felt unique and different. The amount of polish this game has was really good as well. Great job!

Submitted

Get pumped! The music and game feel for this are awesome! Little fishy all the way.

Submitted

Love the amount of polish you've given this, and the blub mechanic. One of the best games I've played this jam, hands down. 

Submitted

This needs so much more attention!

This game takes a so simple concept and polishes the shit out of it! Anything is there and anytime I think that there could be something more, there actually is something more!

The music and sfx are incredibly well fitting and the artstyle is perfect!

The only this I would possibly add would be a button to freeze the rotation or the movement, or both. Ten outta ten, will play again.

Submitted

Love it! Amazingly polished, the music and graphics are great, no problems at all!

Submitted

Awesome Game, fun and cute! I usually don't like games in which you aim and move with the same controls but it really fits here. Great job!

Submitted

Really solid and polished!A fish with a minigun? Sign me up haha also the "blub" mechanic it was really cool and chaotic :D

Submitted

Such a well made and polished game for something made in a week! You have an exceptional talent! Wouldn't be surprised to see this rank high!

Submitted

Super well done!
