Only problem I have with the full release is that the last shark hunt level feels impossible to beat in less than a minute, Ive beaten it in 1:08 minutes as my fastest time, lost so many times at 59 seconds in when our sizes are pretty much the same, if the sharks size was slightly reduced I think this would be much more fair.

Also I wish there was a way to see the abilities of my mermaids by hovering over them, other than that this is one of my favorite vore games ever and I cant wait to hear about what your next game is going to be.

Thats a shame but I am very interested in anything you work on going forward. 

Is your next project going to be Game Maker? I would love to help with development if I could but I only have experience with Godot

how do i unlock the predator mode, is it unlocked after completing the shark hunts?

bit of a late response but that is awesome to hear, I think it would be a great visual break between runs while having the added benefit of being really hot lmao

do you plan on adding in an interior game over screen at some point, once you are digested I would love to see a stomach interior with gurgling and muffled burps before trying again.

Awesome, cant wait to play it

Curious how will levels work, will it be after a certain size reached, certain amount of time, or will they be unlockable/selectable similar to the skins?

when will I see the other mermaid skin in the goldfish room, rn I just see the original one at the surface at the top right

No worries, this game is too special to worry about a temporary bump in the road :)

loving the new update, the addition of new sounds is amazing, I would love to see more burp/stomach sounds introduced in future updates as the game grows to keep up the variety, Nora is perfect at them. I have some feedback below:

1. passive mode doesnt spawn anything for me this update, it is just a blank ocean with nothing to do

2. With the new struggling mechanic I would love to see a minigame for breaking out, maybe those new heartfish can serve as a "currency" to get a struggle attempt, when you are swallowed you have to click to fill a bar before a second stomach bar depletes, if you do, the shark lets out a massive burp and you escape, consuming a heartfish. Each subsequent attempt should get harder of course to avoid infinite lives

3. I would love to see more things to eat in this game, especially as the mermaid grows, I have a few ideas: birds that fly above the water that you need to jump out to grab, scuba divers that can stun you if they are facing you, swimmers at the top of the water that can distract the shark but give lots of points, boats that you can bang from underneath and knock the people into the water. As you get bigger there can be dolphin girls/squid girls or something along those lines. It would be nice to see more human/seaanimal hybrids like the shark girl but Im not sure how feasible this would be if you aren't still working with AdjectiveNounCombo, they could even just be recolored versions of the player mermaid and at different sizes

Small Suggestions:

Add sliders to turn up/down music and sound effects

After the Shark digests the player, the screen can change into the inside of her stomach where you can still hear the stomach gurgles and her muffled burping, would make losing a chance to have some more fun ;)

I have some minor suggestions I would like to pitch and 2 questions regarding game mechanics. For my suggestions I would love to see more variety in the burping sound effects, have a bunch of different burps that can play instead of just 1. Maybe the mermaid and shark can have 2 different 'pools' of sound effects, the sharks being far deeper and louder. 

I think it would also be cool if the game got some ambient stomach sounds added in, more gurgles as the mermaid grows in size, and especially have noise during the shark digestion of the player. Right now it feels rather boring and anticlimactic, some good digestion sounds and burping would make me feel inclined to get eaten ;)

I saw a comment posted here suggesting bubble effects when the mermaid or shark burps, I really like this idea and would like to add on to it. Currently when either fish-person burps, their mouth is closed. To make it feel like a burp they should switch to the frame of  animation where their mouth is open with bubbles/ripples coming out. I personally would love to see an animation of their mouths rippling from the force of the burp or maybe their eyes roll back/cheeks get red but I understand that making sprites/sprite sheets are very time consuming and difficult. That is also assuming that you are still able to get new assets from AdjectiveNounCombo.

As for my 2 questions, 1, what does the eel ability do exactly, I'm not finding much success with it and it feels rather janky, how did you intend for it to be used? 2, I would like to know your reasoning for removing horizontal movement of the mermaid, I cant tell if I prefer the new or old movement better but I would like to know your thought process.
