Fantastic fish! I Loved it!
Love it!
So many mechanics, the world is giant. Atmosphere is great. You've made an awesome game here!
500mb is a chunky boi
Glad you liked it, yeah unreal adds a lot of stuff on the package game I bet our game is only half the size of those 500mb
Very creative mechanics and the 3D character looks awesome :D I had lots of fun playing. Perhaps there could be an indication of which direction is the up when diving, like a 3 dimensional compass? Good job on the game! :)
Another great idea!
Yep defenietly adding an Up indicator would help :D
Thank you for playing!
Didn't read the description, so I just expected a platformer, but was surprised by a puzzle game (+ platformer). Really great entry, sadly I didn't finish the game yet, because I was stuck in that relatively open area with several enemies and I didn't get how to beat them. Can you even or do you just have to outrun them?
I found the mix of platforming and puzzling really great and the level design in general as well. The puzzles had the right difficulty, not too hard but not too easy either. I was a little bit annoyed that you couldn't just hold the mouse button for bringing that water down on the stones. Repeatedly clicking was tedious.
Had lots of fun playing, even though I didn't beat the game (yet ;)).
Thank you for playing
You cannot defeat the enemies so outmaneuvering them would be a better choice for sure when you try it next time (and I really hope you do!)
The idea with holding mouse button is actually something worth considering! (the more people playtest it the better we can make it)
I am glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you very much for the feedback.
A good platforming game with some original mechanics! I see that you've deviated a bit from the idea you talked me about last week ahah :P !
Hahahah
Yes I did! Our programmer said: Lets be more ambitious.
How could I say no to that :D
Thanks for playing!
Imma make sure to check your submition as well :D
Really cool game, I like the different kind of jumps and camera perspectives that you could get because of the mechanic and the gameplay felt great.
I was getting a bit frustrated in the water tower cause I kept falling down near the end haha, maybe it would be nice if there were some checkpoints, like a ladder you could throw down so you can get back up.
Overall I enjoyed the game a lot, and maybe I'll play it again sometime since I didnt manage to beat it yet :)
Thanks for trying it out!
The water tower level should have been introduced later into the game, that is for sure (in the initial version that was a starting level :D)
I can promise after that level there are some simpler ones but of course later there are some harder levels as well ;)
I am glad that even though you got frustrated you got an urgue to maybe trying beating it! And I really hope you do! (there is a save system so you won't have to start from the begining ;)
*Spoiler alert!*
There are people already speedruning the game :D

Really fun game! It was cool to jump around and use the water mechanic! I'm curious as to where the tiger came from. Was there a reason for that? It seemed kind of random.
BTW, I also had an issue where I got stuck on a gate at one point, but it was clearly just because I got out of the water form while I was still partway through the gate, so once I sprayed more water and got back into the water form I was able to get out, but it was just kind of off.
Thanks for playing!
Glad enojoyed and figured out how to get out of this stuck situation :D
We should have added a note that you can shoot through the gate as well so you can come out on the other side.
Gonna fix it for sure!
We planned to add the combat as well so the model was there and we decided to use it somehow anyway.
Story Wise it was clear that Tigers (cats) like to eat fish right? :D So it was a clear choice of the enemy type.
And to conquer the Tigers Temple as a fish would be an awesome achievement!
I think it was clear that you can shoot through the gate. It's just if you let go of the shift button too early when you're going through it's a little finnicky.
Also, I didn't get that tiger connection, but maybe I'm just a little dense.
This game was cool as anything.
When I got to the top, just before the gate I got stuck in the geometry. I made the jump but I would fall through the geometry
Other than that this was great fun
Thank you so much for playing our game, I'm sorry you run into that bug
Do you mean the first gate which is part of the tutorial or another gate on other location on the level
It was the first gate as part of the tutorial.
Let me know if you can find it and fix it so I can play again
Awesome could you described how you interacted with the gate ?
I test it several times on my end and I couldn't reproduce the issue.
You are using the fish form to get through the gate correct ?
I downloaded it again and played it again and it worked fine.
I got up to the top where you have to jump between the two gear looking wheels.
The game is fun.
Whao this game is amazing whoever coded those features is a big brained individual, high praise !!!
