Great  game. Probably the most complete experience i had so far!

Nice take on the concept and great artwork!

Like the art style, intro was nice. I like the color changes as you go deeper. 

I support Phibert.  Loved the intro with the quick background and newspaper story. Gameplay was simple but very fun and overall the style worked really well! :D

Overall, I think the concept is really fun! The starting gameplay can be a bit grating at the start, but as you acquire more items it starts to become more interesting. I think it takes a little too long to acquire the amount of scales needed for specific upgrades, and the repetitiveness of the gameplay makes this feel longer. With some polish, and maybe a few more enemy types, the game could shape into something special as a short, standalone experience.

I didn't see the theme being very strong (besides being what you "gather"). I liked the use of the luminosity under water and how the game plays out in general. With some more juice, I believe this would have been way better (+control, +effect, +sfx, +vfx) in terms of "fun". Make it so "shooting" or "moving" is rewarding in itself.

I really was not expecting a boss fight and was pretty surprised even though I just camped it with my harpoon gun (which I thought was useless until then). I liked the music, the art (quite good), and some of the sfx but the gameplay was a little lacking. I think that the loop of  just go kill more fish for more scales gets old really fast. But also, the shop was too expensive for a game jam game I think.
