Actually amusing, played for like 8-10 minutes. There is sure some space for further development. Keep it up!

Really interesting game — it was a lot of fun to play! I really enjoyed the gameplay. The idea of diving deeper and deeper was a great touch; it kept me motivated to reach the end. The art was also well done, and I especially liked the fish sprites.
"I HAVE THE MAX FISH!"🐟
Love the graphics, the gameplay feels great and smooth! The only thing that’s a bit tricky for me is using W to dive. From my perspective, it would feel more intuitive if S were used to dive and W to float back to the surface. But overall, it’s really well done, congrats!
Nice entry! The gameplay loop is satisfying, and combined with the overall atmosphere it was easy to get lost in it for a few minutes. I did already have all of the upgrades by the time I reached the second half of the map (and all the cool new fish!), so it would have been nice to space that out a bit more. Great work!
Nice! Very chill but fun.
Encountered a bug? at the end™. I was able to press e to get the treasure, but it didn't do anything? or deposit at the boat. Still fun though.

For some reason I found this game very compelling, and I played through till the end (where I had a bug: as I picked up the treasure I moved under the ground and was stuck.) I loved the visuals and the different type of fish, I actually wish I had explore a little more earlier because it was only at the end I realized how much more stuff there was to see. Great work from everyone on the team!
Good and satisfying core game loop! Nice work!
Dave the Diver kind of vibe, I like it! Having the max upgrades felt a little overpowered though, at least in terms of swimming speed
A very simple but entertaining game. I really like it )
Very fun game! I managed to get the treasure at the end. When diving a bit deeper, some of the fish were bugged for me and I couldn’t pick them up. Overall, a really enjoyable experience!
I got to the end and I must say that the last-tier updates are wild :) The gameplay is simple, but it plays nice. It is intuitive and well executed, although the balance is a little off. I think a better sound design would do a lot here. Thank you for the game and take care!
The fish stop moving around for some reason and I'd like the controls to be inversed then going down and maybe using S to go down instead of W but it was fun and satisfying overall :)
I got strong Dave the Diver feels, but in all the good ways. Very nicely done. I found the beginning a bit too hard, but once you progress and get your first upgrades it gets a lot better
Satisfying game loop however the music got a bit tiring after hearing it for so long.
Also some of the small fish appear to be dead?! :O and it wouldn't allow you to pick them up.
Cool little game! I was a bit confused in the beginning because somehow the fish at the start stopped being collected. They seem to have bugged. Eventually I decided to go further and the other fish were collectable. Two small suggestions if I may: 1) Mouse pointer control + mouse press to swim might be more comfortable to play, but that should need testing. 2) UI element other than text to tell you that you have max fish. Text seems like a warning and takes a little bit of the relaxing mood from you. These suggestions in any case are only for improvement. Your game is a nice jam entry, so congrats to the team!
Really cool little entry! The gameplay loop is addictive and makes you want to complete the game. I wish there were more upgrades or the earnings/costs should be rebalanced cause you don't need to collect half of the fishes in order to win the game. It could be a bit more challenging but it's still a strong entry
simple but fun game! really like the pixel art. nice jam
