I really liked the pixelart style and progression of this game. My only feedback is that the background and sprite pixel ratio is the same. Really cool game. Good job!

Amazing game, the bubble mechanic was well thought out and the most challenging, the 3rd level went out in a jiffy tho XD Good work!
The first part when you eat other fishes to grow reminds me of a childhood game. I think it is called "Tasty Blue"? About the game - the pixel art is amazing! Also the game is easy to play with (the controls), but at the same time the obstacles made it interesting! I really was expecting some actual transformation of the fish to become some super pretty dragon-like fishy! Don't get me wrong, the ending was unexpected, but also good! Maybe in the future you guys can add different endings? Either way, nice game!
Really nice game, enjoyed it a lot, didn't expect the ending. The music is really nice, and the gameplay feels great, nice job

Fun game!
I was a little sad when I got to the next level and shrunk back down again rather than keep my size throughout but I really enjoyed it all the same
This game is very fun. The graphics and music really drew me in, and I liked the story.
Really good game. Ending was a bit of a surprise. Guess I'll have to see if the fish becomes a dragon in his next life.
This was a fun game. I liked the theme and the swimming, and the mini games were beatable (the bubbles were the most unique and challenging). The little story was funny too.
hit two bugs in the bubble boss run - I died to the boss the first time and then was sent back to the previous stage. Then the music was completely silent until I got back to the boss area
I'm in love with this game... or was... until... you know what you did....
