I never thought I want see a Gura majestic flip out of the water until today! This game got quite an interesting idea for corruption! I do suggest that the enemy would do something aside from just being there, maybe they could spawn more corruption slime, or they posses a threat to you in a way. But still, a cool idea of a game!

The text on screen is SOOOO small, my damaged eyes cannot even perceive it's presence. In a similar vein you should not ever put white text against a turquoise background. It hurts, it hurts!

The controls for the game itself are pretty fun to play around with, breaching and flipping in the air especially. (Gura is the fidget spinner I never asked for) Gura looks cute in her maid outfit too, though I'm not sure she should be swimming around in the dirty water with her mouth open like that. (lol)

I'd like to see the corrupted elements fight back more, or try to get away maybe? 
This entry is good, I like it.

Zooming around and cleaning up the water is real fun, the sprites and music are good as well. The minimap and bars in the UI are also very satisfying. Getting speed and doing a jump out of the water is the best
Getting a long trail of slime behind you is almost as fun as getting a single huge ball of slime
I think I beat all the enemy fish by just holding D and they all died offscreen, a little bit of a chase or effort there would feel better
Make sure that % remaining doesn't round down to 0 when there's still stuff left

An unfortunate byproduct of how the game works is that its most fun right at the start: you go as fast as possible and get a huge thing of slime without really trying. Near the end you're going slow and double checking everything for the last stray bits of slime.
Spitballing ways to help this, pulling back the camera when you go fast could help you see slimes easier, making the slime pickup hitbox larger at speed could make it easier to grab stray single slimes, the water clearing up as the slimes are taken away could help indicate where the last ones are (and is also satisfying like powerwash)

Good work overall!

Controls are a bit finicky and I feel like you could've made it a little easier to understand. Game looks real good though.

Very zen game.

Enjoyable slime collection game.

Gura's sprite is cute and the animation well done.

Nice arrangement of Q as the BGM!

The part I enjoyed the most was boosting Gura out of the water and doing some flips. XD

Some improvement suggestions:

-There didn't seem to be a motivation to defeat the enemy fish. Maybe they should give some rewards or hinder the player from reaching the goal, making the player want to get rid of them asap.

-Speaking of goal, there doesn't seem to be one in the game or it's not made obvious. A game over screen after collecting all slime and defeating all enemies would be a nice way to give the game an end.

Good work!

All I can say is, this is really satisfying!

Nice game, I loved the swimming mechanic, it fits Gura very well >w<

This is a cool game. Movement feels nice and its very satisfying to build up the big slime balls. I'm not really sure what the sharks do since I kind of ignored them for a while, but it was still really fun!

The Game Mechanic is Really Interesting. Very Fun! 👍

Gura is very cute! I like the swimming movement.

Nice little game. Maybe some spawners could be added, since the place empties out after the first 10 seconds.
Really satisfying to form huge combos and make beeg bubbles.

The maneuvering was really fluid and fun. The sharks were fast but appreciated the minimap so i could time attacks appropriately. Had fun, thank you.
