I love it! Might be the best "random things keep happening to you until you lose" game I've played in this jam. But the fish, oh, the fish is a run-killer, single most despised thing ever, jumping right from beneath me. I think the game would benefit from enemies telegraphing their intentions before appearing - a nuke displying its radius before it falls (because 5 tells me pretty much nothing), a horse appearing from a random side but showing which one for a second, and of course a position where the fish will jump and which direction it will face. Meteors are really nice as they are, just a constant barrage of well-telegraphed obstacles. I really love the presentation, sounds and music!

Thank you for your comment! There are some thing i want to make clear though;
- The fish has been adressed countless of times (to the point that it has a cult following in my friend group), it will get nerfed on the first major update in the form of an indicator that appears before it jumps out of the water
- I thought about the nuke displaying its radius after a while i published the game, i havent expressed that vocally but it was something i was going to try out and see how it did, but thanks for commenting on it, now ill actually consider it!
- The horse ALWAYS comes from the left, however the amount of turns it has decides whether it returns and dashes back and forth again. The numbers on it are kinda janky/the text doesn't explain it very well on second thought (even though the text says itll turn around 1 time it dashes through the screen once and disappears without dashing), so i will be playing around with the horse and how he behaves/telegraphs its attack. There is a sound cue though that indicates the horse dashing again, you hear a gallop at the side itll return from before it dashes, but i understand that may be hard to without looking into it
There are updates under way, and all the issues that have been adressed by you and other players will be attempted to be resolved in one way or other. Thank you for playing, im glad you enjoyed it!
