This is our third game jam game and hope that you enjoy it! We would love to hear your feedback on it.


General Tips:
There are 4 directions the player can move in.
The beginning of the level is the most important. If something is going wrong it could be there.
Look at the last move made and seeing where it could have gone better. You could be onto the correct solution.

Graphics and Music are great :smile:
Nice work!
Great idea, I had a lot of fun playing it.
Didn't realise the game had any audio until I read through the comments; default audio slider setting had the music muted even though it looked as though it should be playing. Sliding it a bit higher, I was able to hear the music, an nice calming loop although until it finishes playing
If I were to point out an area for improvement (I'm realy nit picking here, the game is really good given the time frame it was made in) would probably to work on the player sprite and UI buttons a bit more so that it's a bit more consistent with the whole underwater theme.
Overall, it's a good entry, well done.
@chimp Thanks for the feedback on the audio apparently I forgot to change the audio prefab so it has been fixed now. Glad you enjoyed the game even if you got stuck.
The core mechanic is easy to understand and great to play with.
Some puzzles were better designed than other (I enjoyed best the small smart ones rather than the big ones trying to represent something and giving you too much room), but all in all the game was really enjoyable!
I played up to the "momentum" puzzle, level 10 I think. Does the game contains many more levels or was I close to the end?
Thanks for the game I had fun 💕
