Allround nice job. :thumbsup:
My best score is 254, which to be honest was a lucky outlier :)
Bonus points for the biographies of all the characters in the intro!
The intro scrolls too fast and I missed it the first time, also instead of it repeating in the main menu maybe have one of the options, something like "Info" or something.
The controls were a bit hard to manage, and it makes you freak out easily and waste all your missiles.
Also "incoming missiles" don't look like pickups at first, and I almost dodged one.
Great music as always! Good job!

However, I've found the lack of control over submarine a bit frustrating: being able only to steer away from fish and shoot down on velocity this low feels lacking, 20% of playtime I felt like I do nothing, just waiting for time to pass. This can be addressed in many ways, the easiest of which is to increase downwards speed, decrease horizontal speed a little and give the submarine a smaller hitbox for it to be able to navigate narrow passages. But perhaps, it would be a complete different game with a complete different mood. :)
All in all, I had fun playing the game! Here's my playthrough:

The Game just works like a charm and everything fits very well together.
I loved the description of all "Characters" in the Game which appears in the Main Menu.
This cuold go directly to a mobile publishing.
Well Done Great Game
