A solid little collecting game with nice pixel art and a relaxing atmosphere. I'd recommend adding a few more obstacles to make the sense of progression feel a little more compelling. But overall, good work!

Submitted

A short, but well-made game.

Also you may want to improve the shark's AI lol.

Rodrigo is gentler than he looks. Like the contrast between almost a horror vibe and the cute quest to save little fish eggs

Submitted

Lovely relaxing game. I like the dark and lighting mechanic. The swimming felt really good too. Nice game !

Submitted

Incredible! The way you did your tutorial, teaching how to swim and cast light, was perfect. Audio was well implemented - the atmosphere got real heavy real quick after descending into darkness. That giant shark was also terrifying to swim past, great job on that! Short and sweet, thanks for making a great game.

Submitted

This was a relaxing little game with some simple yet satisfying mechanics. The music was nice and chilled too.
I like how it got darker the deeper I went. Great job :)

Submitted

Nice entry! i only think the first song is too sad lmao, i loved the atmosphere! we made a game with angler fish too

Submitted

Controls felt nice to swim around, nice and responsive. The art was cute and the darkness mechanic was cool! The shark was a bit too big for me to get past tho so I got stuck at that level. The shark was HUUUGE! 

Submitted

Simple but well done!

The feeling of dive into the deep ocean with this immersive music is great and raises to the maximum the mood of your game! Good job!

I manage to beat all the 3 levels but the shark are too aggressive 😬

Good choice for musics and the sprites

Overall, a nice entry!

I loved the music for each level, went to level 3, though I could not completed, not sure if it is only me but the guide messages appears cut off :(. In general I had a really good time playing with the light, I liked that second level was dark. the 2d sprites were also beautiful that matches with each level and music, congratulations! great job! 

Submitted

The music and sound environment in this game is very relaxing and the light mechanic is really clever. Would love to play more levels after the jam.

Submitted

Otto really likes to drop their eggs all around, huh? Very nice idea and fun gameplay with playing with the light. The graphics were pleasant to look at, but if you kept to a single pixel size it would've looked more coherent.

First of all, I was in doubt if you're Brazilian too, hehe...

Well, about the game, I really enjoyed the player movement, it turned out very fluid. Also, I liked the idea of the collectibles being fish eggs I would never think of something like that.

The dark parts on stage 3 were very intense, the light was awesome. a bit too short.
