nice update but... are the sharks supposed to collide with the sponges? They get stuck and sometimes bounce straight into me, eating me instantly 

yeah, I'm going to adjust their interactions in the next update

Fun game, managed to score 22k points.

Honestly the only thing I really lack is some kinda of a sandbox in the paid version, where you could for example: change spawn rates, disable sponges, set shark sizes... Just to give the option of a more difficult challenge or simply to see how big you can get the numbers.

that sounds cool, I will probably be expanding upon the main mode while adding small side modes, maybe something like that :)

Hey! Update sounds awesome.

However are files correct? In paid build i see only yellow fishes and same shark. Got around 1300 pts, ate 1st shark and nothing changes except new shark is bigger. still only small yellow fishes and nothing else.
