You have 3 minutes to score as high as possible by eating jellyfish! Steer the squid to shoot ink behind you, jellyfish that run into it will shrink!

How to Play

  • Steer the squid left and right
    • Steering also makes the squid shoot ink!
  • Larger jellyfish, indicated as being red, will make you shrink
    • When you have been completely shrunken, the game ends.
  • Ink shot out will make jellyfish shrink
    • Jellyfish that are smaller than you, indicated as being blue, can be eaten for points, similar to the ghosts in Pac-Man!
      • Each one eaten will make you grow a little
      • Try to eat a bunch at once for a higher combo!
  • The game ends when the timer runs out, or the player has shrunken too much
    • Try to go for a high-score!

Controls

Left/Right or A/D: Steer left/right

Gamepad also supported!

Bugs fixed from Submission:

- The score will not reset when the game restarts

- Player can continue to play when the game ends

- The game crashed after restarting when a 'score gained text' (the score x combo display) was supposed to disappear but it no longer exists, so asking something that doesn't exist to disappear made the ocean water have this weird freezing property that made everything frozen and nothing could be done to unfreeze it, all because of a thing that no longer exists tryna disappear.

No other change has been made, the game jam submission files are available for download + I added a Window build of the submission.
