Gameplay What a great game! This doesn't feel like a gamejam submisson but rather a complete game. Love the general idea and implementation. Included enemies are great and add a variety to the gameplay. I like the looping around effect on top and bottom, but on the left and right it doesn't feel so natural. Maybe a barrier that you cannot cross would be better? The controls are intuitive to pick up. I like that you can destroy the enemies while retrieving the anchor. GDD GDD is well written. Love the included art and monster abilities explanation. Art Wow. The art fit the vibe of the game well. Sound design You have done a great job with music and sound effect design and implementation. It adds a lot to the enjoyment while playing. Overall, this is a superb game. Down the line, I could see this as a game with multiple difficulties and a great storyline. Keep up the good work.

Summarize your game!
A 2 minute long action packed bullet hell.
Carve your way with through waves of underwater monsters with your trusty anchor.

Anchor shooting: the anchor will move towards the cursor point for a certain distance and then go back towards the player, killing all enemies on its path. When the anchor returns to the player it can be shot again.

Dashing: Pressing Space the submarine will dash towards the WASD direction and create an invulnerability frame, allowing the player to safely pass through enemies and projectiles.

Bullet destruction: The player can destroy larger bullets by hitting them with the anchor.

To kill the last boss the player has to destroy its 4 arms first and then its head.

Controls:

WASD - Movement
R - Restart
Space - Dash
Mouse - Aiming
Left mouse click - Shooting

Please explain how your game fits the theme.
The game revolves around shooting the anchor at enemies. That anchor is reusable (it has to be pulled back before shooting again) and is the only projectile the player has. It takes only one hit to kill both the player and enemies.
