Ocean and Bodies by Johnman
Ocean and Bodies is a game about a bird who wants fish. Life, commitment, hardship and other deep stuff. In other words, it has no plot because I decided to focus on mechanics early on.
Instructions (also inside)
Use Z (or Y) to flap your wings. Go high if you want to go deep!
Press and release X to dive, hold X while diving to brake and change direction.
Use the arrow keys for that.
Thank you for playing!

Well, I ended up changing a lot of things over the course of 24 hours. I basically chickened out on what I said in my "I'm in" post. I have had a hard time finishing stuff in past LD and I decided finishing this one was my top priority, so I adapted the technical details of the game as I needed to.
Now I must return to work on other stuff.
But I finally managed to submit an entry! And as a reward I get to play hundreds of awesome games!

It took me a while to realize that the screen format was not appropriate for this concept (bad visibility), but by then it was too late to change it.
and your game is really the best ovbiously.
