Fishing Time 🎣i love how you expanded on the story line of one of your previous games, i havent seen anyone do that yet. the audio is a bit lackluster, but the rest of the game is really good. I like the concept of pressing the arrow keys in order to get to the surface, and the pixel art is amazing!

Deep DiveGreat game! Love the art style and story! I really like the added complexity of the arrow keys prompts, it is the right amount of challenging to dodge fish and also try and coordinate the arrow sequence in the same time. Excellent job!

Deep Dumpster DivingHi! This is great entry for this jam, I love gameplay and how you fit the theme. I just love your story, graphics and sounds, avoiding fishes and playing minigame. I just might add little variety among the fishes could be great way to keep interesting going deeper. Anyway, this is Great game!

Under AfterQuite a fun little game, not sure how the arrow game really worked though.

Whispers of WhitechapelThank you so much for including an arrow pointing towards the nearest gnome! I've seen so many diving or sea exploration games where the premise is similar but there's absolutely no guidance towards the goal, so you're just searching for a needle in a haystack.
On top of that, the style is great, and the later two gnomes were much harder to get than I was anticipating (which is good, I was worried it was going to be too easy). The only thing I'd say this game lacks is more content. The concept is solid, so it would be great if it were longer with more obstacles and minigames. Also, this is a minor issue, but I think the camera should refocus on the pier when surfacing instead of staying in place, since the first time I surfaced and there was no visual change I was worried the game crashed.
And I'm actually rather interested in the lore behind gnomes somehow getting lost at sea while escaping a garden.

Think, Damnit!Solid entry! Really enjoyed the color pallet of this game.
I always wanted to make a sequel to one of my old jam games so whenever I see other people do it it puts a smile on my face!
Thank you for giving our broken game a second chance o/
