How does the game fit into the theme?
You are constantly being chased by an enemy fish that is trying to hurt you. You have no choice but to keep moving.
What premade assets did you use if any?
I used 2 open-source shaders from godotshaders.com: 1 for the godrays and 2 for the wind shader. I grabbed some free fonts from fontesk. A COG icon from feather icons to open up the settings menu. Other than that everything else was made by me or my wife.

Very cool hand-drawn art. It's fun to dodge the enemy fish and pull ahead of it to collect starfish without getting poked. The theme interpretation is very strong since you really do have to keep moving forward in order to avoid dying
Cool game! reminds me of those old fish simulator games.
Art is very nice, they look like crayon drawings and the music is nice and calm.
Gameplay wise, the pointy fish moved a bit faster than the player so once you encounter that you just straight up lose the game (or maybe that's just a skill issue on my part)
Good job!
The art is incredible! Love the idea for the game, and well executed! Its very peaceful
The handdrawn art is fantastic, looks straight out of a professional children's book! If she isn't already, your wife would do really well as a book illustrator.
I liked the game. It's very beautiful.
I just want to share a little bug: One of the star was created out of bounds once during the gameplay.
Beautiful game! I really like the art style! The music is also well chosen, and overall, the game feels very polished and well-rounded. Unfortunately, I find the theme interpretation a bit weak. Of course, interpretation is always subjective. I understand the core idea that the fish must keep moving to avoid being attacked by the other fish—or at least, I assume that was the intention behind it. I just wish there was a bit more to it. Other than that, the game is a visual delight! Well done!

Hello!
Congrats on this work! I really appreciated the immersion I felt while playing. It was super relaxing, and the music played a big role in that, it really made me feel like I was deep in the ocean. The graphics are also really cool!
At first, I thought it would be a game like Angry Shark, but it turned out to be something completely different! The gameplay is easy to pick up and very intuitive.
As for an improvement, maybe adding a fullscreen option could be nice (unless I missed the key for it or you simply didn’t have time to include it). Also, it fit the jam theme for me !
