Really great pixel art and smooth motion! But a little difficult for me.

Agreed! Really great pixel art and smooth motion!
Super tough hitboxes and very short gun range make it a hard one to get through.
Well done!

I thought the main sprite was a lot nicer than the rest of the art. It was all quite good though. Great job.

Love the art style very cute. The gameplay felt a bit unoriginal to me but on theme with "depths" as you are constantly going down. Audio is good as well, crabs exploding is fun I love the physics of it. Would have been nice for the death-reset to have an animation or transition. Great entry!

Player feedback is really nice, and character is cute!! But the levels and control is a little bit hard.

A bit rough around the edges and kind of primitive, but still fitting the theme. Blasting crabs to bits was weirdly satisfying, hehe.
Rest In Pieces, the loving crab couple...

Very cute animation and generally very nice aesthetic! However, quite hard to control character, I dunno, is it input lag or processing lag? I often die like 200-500 ms after collision, after already firing a bullet and jumping away.

So, overall, a biiiiit more casual mode for not-so-great players like me would be appreciated, like checkpoints, more-than-1-health and less input lag.

Well done!

Double jump effect got me by suprise :D I love how it has camera shake and thrust vfx. Exploding crabs with it feels very satisfying.

The character looks amazing! I love the animations, they look so smooth!

The game itself is a bit too hard. I wish the camera wouldn't be always centered on the character and instead could be moved with mouse, so you can see what's below. Right now if I jump down and don't know what's there, I can't really jump on reaction when there is a crab (skill issue haha). Also, it would be nice to recharge double jump after hitting a crab (so you can chain jump on crabs :D)

Overall, congrats with your entry! It's really good considering that you've done it solo!

catgirl is cute, love the animation and your art <3

The art is very cute and smooth motion

Really loved the snappy double jump with the explosion, right in my ballpark :) For me it was quite the right difficulty. An upgrade to an second double jump would have been awesome. Or even more! I would like to chain as many explosive jumps as possible togehter :D Thanks for this, really nice ludum game :)

As a crab, I find this game highly disturbing...

Jokes aside, it was dying so many times. xD

Ahahaha this was so funny. I thought it was just going to be a cute little platformer and then I obliterated the first crab. Very nice art, and quite funny, I liked the crabs with extra character too, nice job ^^

hahaha! I gotta really say, I liked this so much! Is a lot funny, I laugh so hard about the crabs in love and the smoking crab. Felt quite sad for killing them XD

The idea is so so so simple, but is quite well executed. I liked some of the ideas for the level design, and the idea of using the double jump as the weapon is quite clever! There's a lot of juice on it too, which made the gameplay have a really pleasant flow.
I loved the pixel art and the amount of secondary motion you put into the animation, it created a lot of character for the girl, super charming!
I wish the hitboxes were just a tiny bit smaller, tho. Sometimes i died just when I was shooting them and it broke a lil bit the flow gave by the fast motion.

Overal a really super funny entry, I loved the art and the overall vibe. Really great entry, thank you for the little game! :)

Very cute platformer, not sure if it's hard or if i just suck. Great job

Thanks for your comments, everyone!! @athospap @hinamarina @whalejam @quasilyte @quasilyte @felix-kern @hikiyoshi @kamizenki @smeljey @t90 @raiinamoor @yvaine @gold-daniel @genesis @isaac-hisey @synapse316. So happy that you like the art!!

This is my first time participating in a Ludum Dare jam alone. At the beginning, I spent a long time creating the sprite art to escape from the programming part, which I'm not very good at lol.

The character is a sea slug girl designed by my friend @haogege. I’ve wanted to create something for her for a long time, and when I realized that the theme "depths" could relate to the deep sea, I decided to make this character the protagonist.

The fire double jump is laggy because there were some frames where the weapon was pulled out before the fire. I shortened the lag and got adjusted to it during development, but I underestimated how much this made the game challenging for new players.

I have uploaded a link to a **post-jam** version where in response to your feedbacks I added some sounds and made changes to the controls and the death effect. I’d love to hear your feedback, so please give it a try if you’d like! :3


Very nice game! Crabs and main chibi-girl are adorable! I wanna destroy some more smoking crabs and crabs in love! Destroooooy!


Thanks ^_^

Simple but lots of fun! Give another player move or jump while you take the other for a neat challenge.

Sorry for being late >///<
she's a super cute character>////<
draw this for you
