Soothing and enjoyable. It was just challenging enough without being frustrating. I like how the round task drove your theme. It was a great idea for the round. I ran into the seaweed after the happy ending because I hadn't hit them yet and wanted to see what would happen, I was just stuck in place. After a restart and running directly into them I saw your slick restart animation. Well done there. Might have been a good opportunity for linger for a few more frames though, make a more exaggerated failure sound or mom whale cry and then trigger the transition. Overall, great work.

Thanks for playing!  Actually, I didn't use hitboxes to check collisions. Instead, the game checks whether the position of submarine is within the seaweed. So, that may have caused some issues. Thanks for your feedback :)

Simple and unique.  Took a bit to get used to the speed of the sub.  Felt a little fast.  Maybe allow the player to control the speed forward?  (Not sure if it would work.  Just brainstorming.)  Overall, good entry.  Nice job.

Developer

Yeah, up arrow key could have been used to control the player speed. Thanks for the feedback :)
