This might be a bit late, but this is a really good game! The graphics felt really smooth and the levels were challenging as well! How did you manage to code that mechanic?

THE GAMEEEEEE is very cool and creative. Sound effects fit pretty good, especially the 8 bit retro bg music.
Glad to have contributed to this masterpiece (albeit, just slightly on it's itch.io page)

Subterranean CapitalOverall very solid. The main thing I found annoying was that sometimes the controls, specifically going under the surface could feel unresponsive at times, which was stacked upon the fact that once I died I would then have to collect every single orb again. Clearly a lot of effort was put into this game and it shows, the gameplay mechanic and how it ties to the theme really makes this game stand out :)

JawBomberOverall, a very nice aesthetic, especially how much effects stack on top of each other. How long have you guys been making games for? Kudos to the vfx artist in the team. The main mechanic feels pretty fleshed out but some levels are lowkey very hard. Great job, keep making cool games 👍.

BREACHEDyou've got a pretty fun game!!! Honestly extremely polished. As a side part of my work on professional dev teams, I often try and hunt for bugs and errors, so the fact that no bugs came up in play testing is outstanding! game runs as smooth as butter

Blue HarvestThis is a great game and I love the art style and the fact that you guys put the theming into game mechanics! I feel like the main mechanic of going beneath the surface is a bit janky since a) it's not very intuitive [although you guys did put it in the itch page description] and b) the timing is awkward and it's not very lenient towards the player. I think the music fits great as well as the sfx. Most levels have good design but some like level 7 (dive to white platform is straight ragebait compared to other levels) and level 5 (jumping is not very intuitive, and it would feel better to reverse the up/down controls imo where down jumps, but the control thing is minor) could be better. Overall, great game! Good luck!

BREACHEDThe mechanics used are very original! Even if I don't see the theme well and it has some voids, it is awesome!
