I like the idea, but I unfortunately wasn't able to get too far as I couldn't for the life of me figure out what or where the magic pearls are, but that might well be user error. Good job though!
Great artwork, especially the backgrounds and the fish swimming about. Might need better instructions, to make it clear you need to get pearls from clams to make any real progress.
I like the art, its really cute! The world is quite big, I went a long way to the right first, only to discover the treasure is right at the start! It took me a couple of tries, but I got it! Good work :)
Good job) nice pixel art, but i would recomend to remove filtering so it won't look blurry. Also fun bug when there's only half of the body appearing under the water)
Some remarks though: - It is possible to see the gray background when going on the far right when on the surface - The Game Over and win screen have a bit of size issue it seems (maybe it's just on my computer though) - There should be a bit more instructions / visual cue regarding the magic pearls
Can confirm the scaling works fine on the game screen but it doesn't on the other two. The swimming is a bit slow and the game would have needed one more day, but it does work.
I was holding down keys to keep moving, and it got "stuck" with moving in one direction. I suppose I should not complain, because this ended up taking me right to the treasure! I was pleasantly surprised a little bit into the game when I found some fish.
I tried a few times and finally understood how it works ;) at first I thought it's a mario-like pearl which extends breath when you are around it, then I found I have to get back to surface again so it refresh to a new maxium value
anyway, very lovely graphics and sound is good, got potential to expand to a larger game.
Simple and effective game. I always love the experience of being able to get upgrades that let me do things such as hold my breath longer. I died the first time figuring out all the mechanics and was able to get the treasure the second time. Cute art!

The art is so cute. I have drowned sometimes before I understood how pearls work.
Nice work!

Anyway, still a calm and relaxing idea good job!
