I REALLY liked the game! It was fun!

I absolutely loved choosing each upgrade, I found it really fun and hopping out of the water after was a great twist! Reminds me of feeding frenzy, but better!

Submitted

Is a very fun twist to the original clasic game

The legs animation is really smooth. Can feel a bit repetitive after a while, but it was fun. Good job! I think mouse controls would fell a bit better.

Fun, reminded me of the hungry shark game back back on iOS with a few different mechanics!

Simple idea, well made, especially the music, which is great.

Fun game, I liked the friends + friend shield strat. It also just felt good to play and swim, I think you had the speed and everything at a good level. How exactly did the friend shield work? It seemed like there was a minimum number needed but also removed them all when used.
