This is my first cartridge, and something I thought would be easy enough as a first game. I have done what I initially set out to do with this cart and then some. There have been some great concepts suggested in the comments, and I hope someone forks this project and creates their own with some of these modifications. If anyone has any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Constructive criticism is always welcome.

I was unfamiliar with the type and upon review, I still believe your game is more interesting to me. I really enjoy the geometric abstraction.

None of the fish games inspired me a fraction of how much yours did. Also, without the fish concept, you could easily have a level that moved vertically instead of horizontally. I'm not sure I have the time right now to add such a level, but I am considering it mightily. Thanks again!
