I like that the eyes of drill fish close while drilling!
I also really like that you chose a framework named Jaws for this game.

Had fun drilling around as the fish. strategizing and surviving were interesting and surprisingly balanced elements. However, once you got the controls down it got a bit too easy, and also even though I killed all the humans the game kept going and I couldn't find anything
Sorry! I had a bug that prevented the game from ending. Should be fixed now.
What a fun game, I really like the sound effects! The idea is very original.
It took me while to get the hang of controlling the fish & it wasn't too clear what I was supposed to be doing at first. Once I figured it out though, it's not a bad little game.
A bit difficult to control the fish at first, but cool concept :)
Fun game.. Really liked the idea, but i wished it was more polished and smooth ...
Hi, this is Vector from the Victory Garden team! (posting under Solifuge's account)
This is a neat idea! I had a lot of trouble figuring out how to control, though--my fish kept on getting stuck in the sand and not moving, and there's no explanation at any point for the numbers at the top of the screen (which, I suspect, would help me figure out how to keep from dying all the time).
The background audio also quickly became actively irritating, and was probably, more than the sticky controls, the push that made me quit.
However, I really like the way you interpreted the theme, and your main character had a good feeling to it. Thanks!
A funny game and a bit stressing when you are out of water :)
A very original idea, considering how many platformers there are and how few digging games in comparison. My only problem with it is the very finicky and awkward control scheme, which made going where I wanted impossible.
Not bad but the numbers at the top of the screen meant nothing to me? I was confused about what number means what? Cool idea though
Neat game idea. I had a really hard time with the controls, and as a result couldn't get the fish to drill in the direction I wanted. Cool concept!
Really interesting concept! Drilling didn't always work perfectly, but still fun!
I liked this game! Fun and different. The only issue was that the controls were a bit wonky, which made it hard to take risks out of water for fear of getting stuck.
Super cool concept that compelled me to try over and over. I'm not able to get 30 land kills yet but it is a great expert goal.
Hmm, idea is quite nice, drilling-gameplay is okay but heavy-controls are a little disturbing ;)
This is awesome! I would like the drill to last a little bit longer, but I love the game mechanic of drilling and I love the technique of flying through the air and onto the beach. Very "sharknado"-like!
Like it
Not bad. I found the controls a bit rough though.
I got a little confused by the controls too but the other comments made me want to try again. Once you get it, it's quite an enjoyable game. I'd like to here the beach-pople scream.
Interesting concept! Sadly the game is short and the fish is hard to control. Additional randomly generated levels should help to increase the play time and the fun.
