Fun gameplay, very stylish visuals and I love the feeling of impact the audio and visuals give every bounce. Well done!

Great game! I love the visuals and the SFX, but it's a bit too hard, my high score was 12 i would like to see a "hourglass" powerup that gives you more time.

This feels like one of those simple, challenging mobile games that people play for hours on end. The sound effects are quite good and I really appreciate the sense of impending doom as the bar ticks down and the tako gets angrier.

Such a fun game all around. I'm a fan of one clickers and this implementation is really well done. Niice work!

I loved it! The perfect simplicity in gamplay and cute style really sold that game. It was made for me! Would have loved some music though.

Awesomely simple gameplay, awesome artstyle, grewat sound effects, insanely efficient animation - your game is just made for mobile app stores!

The one button gameplay is really solid, it's such a neat package!

I love how much personality tako has <3

Cool game here. I really like the visual feel, everything pops! Game play was simple but fun.

I felt a little cheated when the time got low and the guy started to suck me in I couldn't shoot myself away to catch the fish. I wondered if a charge shot would work, and if slowing the spin while charging would work and feel good.I could nit-pick about being stuck in a spin which isn't quite a loop lol, so I'd say it's a loose take on the theme, but still a good entry!

Good job overall, I'm sure you'll get this published to mobile as a great hyper-casual game!

Great fun. Judging by the resolution I'm guessing this is mobile bound, and honestly it should be. Extremely polished, I didn't notice any bugs, and it just looks and plays great. I wish holding down the button for longer gave a boost when you let go, it would be nice to catapult in one direction as an alternative to rapidly pressing to go. Other than that though, you have a great project on your hands and I look forward to hopefully seeing it on an appstore sometime.

Great game, it was a little difficult to control the jellyfish until I get used to it. Nice graphics. I really enjoyed it. It has a good future as a mobile game. I played on my phone and got 79 points :) Good job!
