I can't stop playing. The biscuit rain at the end is truly the best ending the game could have had. Masterpiece

How does the game fit the theme?
You have to dive into water deeper and deeper to try and find a jammy dodger, risk drowning for a biscuit!!
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All in my description for the game, but most music files were from pixabay and have been credited in the description.

I really like the game idea and the soundtrack. On my 2k Screen in Fullscreen the pixelated look(if it's called like this) was a bit rough, but other than that i had a great time playing.
When I started playing, I was like man, I am too slow, once I got inside water It was rather smooth and slick.
I also was not a fan of main menu music but I really liked the ingame background and sound effects.
The jump out of water is really slick, the shoot to get money is also smooth and feels good.
Running above ground to the shop is still a bit too slow.
Congrats on a great release!
Very well fleshed out little game.
The beginning was quite challenging but in a good way.
Kept me wanting to play again to be successful next time.
Great work!
Pretty awesome game, pretty fun and well polished. Though I would've liked for a download version, instead of needing to play in the browser. I think could be a even more complete game, with more things to buy sell. The only thing I didn't fully like was how much darker it got as you go deeper, as it made a bit confusing to know if I was going somewhere... but overall a pretty good game
This was so fun! The upgrades + penguin + slowly increasing depth made me think of that old flash game Learn to Fly. I really loved the visuals and music and overall vibe. Well done!
I like the 3D art style but it did feel a little fuzzy at times. The overall game play loop was great I enjoyed swimming down and grabbing items to sell. Not sure if I just didn't see it but it could be nice to have a way to hold multiple items that would help with progression and make other items more needed. great game overall though :)
The music broke my ears from the beginning! Love art style, yet movement felt wacky. Nice game tho!
I managed to get the jammy dodger and win! I appreciate the goofy little ending. Overall, it was very fun and I liked the variety in different things you could find. The breaching mechanics seemed to work well most of the time but in the early game I noticed a bug where if you breach too slowly then you get stuck teleporting and cannot leave the water or submerge at all.
Really nice work though, loved the graphics too!
Great little experience! I enjoyed the stylized art and cohesive SFX!The gameply was pretty fun, but it did have some problems, I found. One was that the I had problems collecting items that weren't the fish and the phone. The hitboxes were just kind of small, and I had to really get close to them to pick them up, which de-insentivised me from going down further. The other problem was that I got clipped into one of the ice clusters, and it ended my run without me being able to do anything.
But, I will say, your interpretation of the theme was incredibly good. Simple, but really effective. Nice work!
Yeah, I did mean those ice crystals in the corners. I'm pretty sure the specific cluster was further down, But it got me stuck between the wall and the ice crystal (I could also partially see out of bounds.) The value of the items further down was definitely worth it, +$77 was a big leap from getting ~$10-20 from the stuff!
Absolutely LOVED it!!
Incredibly charming graphics, music and nice little details.
Feels very polished, too!

Really Cool Game , Amazing Art Style , Fits Perfectly Into The Theme.. :)
I really enjoyed it! and the visuals, very melacolic to me haha. Fair play! just one commet, is very difficult to start, just to grab the first item or resource to sell is pretty hard.
