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!

Hi! Thank you so much for playing our game. I'm glad you enjoyed it:). If you could delete your screenshot so it doesn't spoil the game for others, that would be great. Thank you!

The bubble level was fun to play and built up nicely. It would've been better if the final level had been just as good.

I also enjoyed the story as well!

Very fun game, felt very polished ! And poor fish :(

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!

Great game!

Interesting idea.

Such a sad ending. Good job on the gameplay and story. The visuals are really cute as well. I feel like area 2 should be the last area as you are literally ascending in the last section there and it feels a bit harder then the current area 3.

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.

It was a really fun game! I thought the level design was excellent—so intuitive that you could understand everything without reading anything.

I also ran into a bug where I couldn't move from that state.

Developer

Hi! Thank you for your feedback. You should be able to dash out of that state into the stream again. But I will make sure to look into that to ensure the current pushes you to the correct spot. Thanks for playing our game:)

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

Developer

Hi! Thanks for playing our game! The bug should be fixed now:).
