This was freakin great, I loved the gameplay loop and I think the idea / vibe of it all is really well done. The art style felt really cohesive and fit together really nicely. I'm super curious about where the story is going / what twists are turns there will be. I love any story that takes place in such a trapped location, like being on a boat out in the frigid ocean with just one other person. Really cool, especially for your first game! Hope you're feeling really proud of yourself!

The fish designs scratched a really specific itch for me; I had an audible reaction to the ray, which is not common for me at all. I could see myself playing a much longer version of this just to see the different ways various marine life is mutated.

EEK IM SO GLAD!!! i looked at a lot of pictures of real fish in order to draw them accurately (i always draw a normal version before i draw a fucked up one)
