The style for the game is great, and has a lot of potential. But the short amount of time between warning and attacking is too short. Defo can be way more playable with extra warning

Really love the style and the music, and the boss attacks look sick. IMO, the time between attack warning and attack trigger is too short and there are no I-frames when taking damage, making it really easy to take loads of damage without even realizing it and losing. A lot of potential, some tweaking of the numbers and QOL features should do the trick for a future update!

Top Hat fish thinks they are master of the sea? NO! Slash Otter forever! Music is sweet.

Really cute game, though it is very unforgiving.

Tbh, the idea is quite simple but I really like it - the fact that you start at the boss fight and it's too hard to win the first time, so you have to die and repeat the loop to win :) That being said, it was very hard lol. Could it be that the speed of attacks didn't use delta time or something?

Really cute pixel art and lovely simple mechanics, just a bit too fast and difficult, but that's just a skill issue on my end ;)

Cute pixelart and simple but nice mechanics. I just with the attacks were better telegraphed as sometimes you have no time to react at all.

The game was very demanding right off the bat. The telegraphs could be longer before dealing damage or have easier tutorial boss. I can see a niche of people that might enjoy that difficulty. Good potential for a tough game.

This is HARD! Gotta beat that Wels more with my fish. Dash helps, but the danger zones are so quick and the bubbles are _everywhere_. But this made me laugh :)

A fun game, but it felt a bit too difficult and would have benefited from more guidance.
