How does your game follow the theme?
Treasure is the goal and also the problem. Every piece you grab adds weight, so the more you take, the harder it is to get back to the boat before your air runs out. Pass out and your bag of treasure sinks to the bottom, where you can try to recover it on a later dive.

This game has a mountain of polish with the beautiful sunrays in the shallows to the murky darkness of the depths. The music is fitting for a chillax diving game. The graphics throughout are really well done. Initially I appreciated the challenge of the treasure weighing me down, but the more dives I did, it felt like something is missing to make ascending have more of a skill check and be more exciting. Maybe the diver should be on a rope, and when the player starts being reeled up the sharks come out and you have to shoot them to make it to the top? Lovely UI design and polish on all the assets. I don't think there are any upgrades I can buy to make bigger runs later in my career. The attract mode is cool and appealing. No bugs found.
This game looks polished and the concept is great, just the right amount of challenge. I also like that you've made a daily leaderboard that resets, which keeps things interesting. It would be cool if along the way we can use the gold we collect to upgrade, so we can go deeper, carry more, etc.
The movement feels great also, this has the potential to be a great full game, should you decide to pursue that!
Congratulations on the submission, well done!
I really enjoy the visuals of this game and the bright colors used to depict the deep sea. I also think the mechanics of being able to drop your treasure and make sure you get to the top is very cool, as well as the possibilities with your treasure dropping somewhere higher to reclaim it on a future dive!
Very-very-very simple for a starter concept
Amazing gameplay concept and visual style. Going down into the darkness is exciting and adventurous. Although slowly going back up is a little frustrating, made better by the oxygen vents. I would like to see some more objects to help going up, like springs or elevators.
Very fun and well balanced! I liked going as deep as I could
