Nice

I didnt understand for a while that the bottom of platforms has spikes that kill you when you jump into them, safe to say i was a bit confused on the first few deaths. Nevertheless nice game! the roulette wheel for increasing difficulty is a super fun idea!

My best score: 176

Gameplay: 4

It was otherwise fun but it felt that i just constantly kept dying because i had a platform appear on top of me when jumping, i guess i just should have been lower:p The spinny wheel is a very nice touch!

Theme: 3

It took me a while to realize but the water level is technically rising and the player is moving up, i thought the water was staying still and the platforms were moving down:D The theme wasnt explained that well but im guessing you are escaping from the water

Aesthetics: 4

Art is very nice, the start menu ui feels a bit unpolished, there could be more effects when splashing into the water:)

Sound: 3

Music and 2 different sound effects, could be better. Maybe add noises to falling in the water / hitting a platform?

Overall a good submission, once i figured it out it was fun to play:) Keep up the good work!

That was fun, although I was terrible at it I enjoyed it! 10/10 background image

Like the fish I now hate that water. The only thing I might hate more than the water are those nasty spikes! I think having the spikes only appear later on would vastly improve the learning curve. As it is right now it's very easy to die over and over very early while trying to get used to the movement/dash.

Great presentation! Good job!

Developer

so far you are the only one who could understand the fish

The gameplay is very appealing, and its very easy to understend the mechanics and keep going! A little too hard for me, but i think its a skill issue of mine XD.

I would like to see more variations in the sprites in an evolved version of the game, but overall a very nice work, good job!

Developer

Thank you!

I liked the game but its a bit hard calculating where the dash is gonna leave you and sometimes you spawn right on the spikes and it feels a bit unfair, but overall great entry

Developer

after a few rounds you can already quite calculate where the fish will land, and besides, the more difficult the merrier

Nice game, but I feel like the spikes on the bottom of the platforms are a bit too harsh, and I love the music

Developer

Since the player has enormous mobility, I specifically added spikes at the bottom so that it would not be so easy to move across the platforms. Thank you for rating!
