Simple and fun mechanic, like the fish animations and the gradual transition when they are dying on shore, the attention to detail really adds to the experience and the mechanic of putting the fish back in the water works really well. Nice job on the game!
Incredibly fun little concept, I got to 88! I like how cute the game is, but the dead fish pile up on the beach ^_^ Got very hectic and the gradual increase in difficulty was just perfect. The overall premise of the shark saving all the fishies is great too. Great entry!
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it
VERY CUTE GAME! I like the mechanic begin based on fish out of water XD the whistle thing is a nice touch, it could be a little nicer perhaps if you automatically whistle at the start of every game to indicate the game starting? (idk just a suggesetion)... The fish rotting on the ground is so sad lmao it's a really nice touch to give them the color difference to indicate the rotting, and the shark's expressions serve as a marker to the health as well as being really cute too! Amazing job (when's the mobile release?).. jokes aside, great work!
thank you so much 😭
Will have to wait and see for the mobile version :^) I want to improve it and add some more stuff to make the gameplay fun and rewarding
Was able to stumble upon this game and thought it was pretty fun! Was saying on my stream, to my viewers, that while this seems simple on its own, this would be great in some kind of minigame bundle with multiplayer going for high score!
Keep it up!
Nice and simple, and looks really good, well done! The ramp up in speed is very well made too!
Thank you! Nice of you to notice the ramp :o
super cute game! lovely graphics and simple mechanics. its a bit challenging, but could see myself playing this, especially on a phone! (hint hint)
Thank you so much! I'm actually thinking of releasing it as my first game on mobile. I just need to balance it out and make it better first :)
Wonderful game and very fun to play. The idea is also great.
Thank you so much!
haha very cute and fun game
I loved game and style. It starts to be difficult when you have more than 25 points... If you want, you can play my game here: https://itch.io/jam/-pixel-game-jam-2024/rate/2718966

Thanks too!
Loved the art style and character designs, I also liked the game progress as it goes along. A Mixture of a card game and taking care of an actual aquarium.
Well one mate ^^
