I agree with other commenters that having gravity in this game probably wasn't the best move.  As you go down further, it's impossible to control the blobfish's momentum. If I were you, I'd turn off gravity and just allow the player to swim down on their own.

Developer

Interesting suggestion, we will work on that thank you !

Nice idea, art and music are pretty great, but navigating and absorbing the enemys are made annoying by the gravity. 

Developer

I appreciate the feedback we will work on that

It's hard to master it seems.
Nice concept! Art is cool! The game can do a little bit more in terms of explaining mechanics of the game but overall it's fun to play!

Thank you for the feedback !

Thank you for the entry! I really like an UI and art of the game!
The main character is dope. It's hard to forget that nose.

Glad to see more Godot projects! Especially HTML builds.
Our project didn't make it to HTML, unfortunately.

Fish life can be pretty hard. Once I managed to make myself invisible which was fun but didn't make it any easier. :-)

Developer

Thank you for the review ! That's definitely not supposed to happen haha

Really cute and stylish, dave the diver except a blob. I dunno, I could eat the fish but then didn't know what to do and pressing E didn't seem to do anything? Hit box was pretty unforgiving.

Developer

I appreciate the feedback ! The power up can only be used when you're on the ground, We will change this upon the next update
