Lovely art, nice music, and the swimming was fun. I just wish you had more time to work on it >,< I get that feeling though! I hope next time goes smoother for you :)

Good loop, I played on the computer but it feels like it would be even slicker on mobile! Only suggestion I can think of is to add a slightly different pattern / texture to the different boxes instead of just colors - I'm red-green color blind and found some of the color blocks hard to tell apart!
Overall had fun swimming around and eating fish! I was able to swim down, spawn big fish, swim back up (they get smaller) then swim down and eat them, not sure if this was supposed to happen :O
I got to the point where I had a crown and was swimming in a 1px ocean, did that for about 60 seconds, but nothing else happened - would have been nice to have a prompt at the end (unless I missed it / stopped playing too soon!)
Art and audio are amazing :) The combat system is a little confusing, but I think some button labels and an info screen could quickly clear that up based on what you've written about the system in the comments above. Overall really impressive how much you managed to get done!
I liked how the comments would slide off the middle of the screen and you get blamed! hahaha great job. Not sure if it was just my computer, but the embedded version on gamejolt was small and made it hard for me to read the text on the 'pong ball'
This is one of my favorite games so far. The theme was awesome, the graphics were fun, the minigames were spot on! It was just a blast all around!
I think the jumping game could be it's own hype-casual game, having the blood cells spin was fun, plus I found out you can stick to the walls, which was a blast :P
The idea is really cleaver, racing against the clock to read how to keep from drowning, the first death is almost expected! I think the game could use more 'deaths' right away, so the player has to keep learning how to make more spells/ potions. It really got me pumped to think about this type of game for a roguelike/survive the day genre.
Great job overall, I'm sure this has a high chance of sucking in a lot of players.
Enjoyed the sliding puzzle, but I feel it lacked a sense of motivation, or at least a hook to make me want to dig into the mystery. Looks like a lot of work went in though! Great job :)
Fun to explore, the fruits should maybe be colored to make them stand out. Overall a fun little experience :)
Great job :) Awesome game, it really gets me excited to explore more with GDevelop
