How does your game fit the theme?
Lobsters molt to grow (or scale) over their lifecycle. The idea was that as the lobster grows the game resolution and colour palette would grow with it, although this goal was not met.

Lobsters 4 Life, claw til' you die, molt ery' day!
Delightful!! I love that idea of the resolution growing as well as the lobster, and loved the absolute Gameboy charm this had. It was really clean and I loved all the animations! Really impressed that this is a solo project, nicely done :D
Cute game, it could use some sound effect tho.
Good game.
The aesthetics are great. The theme is also original and fits well with the jam theme.
Well done!
Loved the retro artstyle, it's very cute. The color palette is also very good, easy in the eyes while playing for a long time. What is lacking is just sound design. A jumping retro sfx would be a very good addition in every lobster's jump. Good job on this game as a solo dev! :)
Cute liitle game. SFX would be great but I had fun nonetheless. Nice job for solo project!
Cute game, nice job for solo project!
loved the aesthetic!
The lobster has grown, the loster is free 😊 Wait what do you mean “for now” 😭
Great little game!
A cool take on the theme. Some might say tredding water is a bad thing, butttttttt... (I didn't know where to go with this pun. Good game tho)
I can never imagine of a platformer underwater LOL. Really like the idea fitting the theme well and explains itself! Great job!
Great visual! I really like this old pixel style. But the lack of sounds really upset me😥 (i'm a sound designer)

It’s a very unique idea, great job! I didn’t know this fun fact about lobsters.
Lobster?
Cute game! I loved your style, but I missed the music. Also I hope you will add more levels in the future - I would like to continue playing
Cute art and very original theme. Would've liked to have more levels. Also really liked the upward currents, neat idea.
cool game! very unique idea and mechanics feel good. only complaint is no music of sound effects.
The lobster is freeeeeee! Cute idea, would love to see a little more platforming puzzles in the future, you have the core mechanics to make it deeper. Otherwise great worl!
This is a really lovely, simple, platformer! the long character and floaty movement add enough to make it feel unique, and the art style is immaculate. 10/10 IGN
