The best game of the Jam ! I enjoyed it completely

Good use of the limitation and the mechanic was well explored through several extension of the initial gameplay (the mechanical hole, the dry pond, etc). I love how one understands the game without having to be taught how to play through a tutorial. Good game! Love to see more

Polished, minimalist and challenging - also, it teaches you how the game works nonverbally, which is a plus. Great game.

This was a blast, the puzzles were supper well designed and the polish was intense, Great job.

Great concept. Good progression of puzzle difficulty and lots of puzzles, I had to stop and think about the last few. Good visuals/feedback, the "can't move there" red fish indicator is appreciated there. Screen space is used effectively to organize all the important info. Only minor note I'd have is that while the sound effects are good, the background music is very quiet and I didn't notice it at first. But overall very fun this is a very solid puzzle game in general and is really impressive for a short game jam. Great job!

i love this! i can’t think of anything that would improve this. the core mechanic is super simple and easy to learn, the introduction into new elements is enjoyable and the difficulty level was okay for me (was able to finish it). the music was very relaxing. great game!

Really cool concept and game, sadly i am too stupid to judge this game in its entirety, i played up until the introduction of the jellyfish and a few level further, but got stuck eventually minor criticism in that you cant see all of the available moves in some puzzles, which leads to the first try just being guessing , and i dont know how this fits the theme UFO, butmaybe thats explained in later levels, so great job.

Theme is optional. I am following the limitation.

Thanks for the feedback!

very original and cute game! Got stuck on  level tho but couldn't die on purpose tho. I would have enjoyed to listen to the music but it didn't work on my browser :(

Sorry about the stuck, you can restart the level with the R key, but i didn't have the time to explain it in-game. It's written in the game description instead.

Fantastic entry as always! the puzzles were very satisfying to solve, a perfect amount of difficult, but I did solve them! The art was simple yet effective, the fish was full of charm. It was impressive how many mechanics you introduced and taught. Seriously full 5 stars from me.

Very impressive! The gameplay seems very original to me. This is a damn cool puzzle that really makes you break your head, but at the same time it's NOT boring. Nice!
