I like the environment and the 3D art! I really wish this had sound, but I suspect you do too (such is the fate of a game jam game sometimes). One other thing I noticed was that the beach ball would sort of flicker on the screen as it moved, if that makes sense.

Overall I had a good time, and it was satisfying each time I unlocked a new size and could see the world from a new perspective!

I really enjoyed playing your game! The beach setting was beautifully designed, and the gameplay felt smooth and satisfying. Overall, it's a unique and enjoyable experience — great work!
Regarding the lack of sounds, I agree with my colleague below

Great idea and solid execution! The lack of sound definitely sticks out, also I think after collecting all the gems, the path to the bell could be a bit more involved, required different levels of inflation. But there was plenty of that during gem collection, so still good job exploring the theme

Awesome take on the theme! The inflating/deflating mechanic got us :D it was really creative ! Good job!

A pleasant game, very relaxing visuals, as if I were on vacation, I would also like to add the sounds of sea waves!

Developer

Thanks. I would have loved to have added sounds.

I'm amazed with how simple this game is turned out to be a lot of fun!

This game would be a 10/10 if you added some music, sounds, and more levels/worlds similar to this.

Cool summery game. Got some Another Crab’s Treasure vibes from it, environment wise. Short and to the point.

Developer

Thanks. I like the summery vibe of your game too.

Loved it! I beat the game. There's some parts where I felt like the wonky physics let me do stuff I shouldn't be able to do, but maybe that was part of the design. I really liked the mechanic of shrinking and growing and how it was incorporated

I'm glad you enjoyed it. You can move while in the air, which is intentional. There's also a bug that lets you jump up walls, which is not intentional.

I totally cheated then haha. Good game

Simple Idea but good execution. A few sound effects would have been cool. Just a simple beach track in the background would have made a lot I think!

Developer

Thanks. I always hope to add sound and music during these jams but unfortunately it's always the first thing to be dropped due to time.
