How to Play

The player controls a fish equipped with a weapon, swimming through underwater environments while shooting at enemies. Defeating enemies earns experience and coins. Upon leveling up, the player selects one of several random upgrades to enhance their offensive or defensive capabilities. Coins can be spent in the shop to unlock permanent stat boosts, making future runs easier. The goal is to survive as many waves as possible, facing increasingly difficult enemy swarms, and ultimately defeat the final boss, The Kraken's Maw. After dying, the player can use accumulated resources to permanently strengthen the fish for subsequent attempts.
