Beautiful gloomy game.

Pros:

  • Creative idea
  • You can pet a turtle
  • Very position critical - stand on a wrong spot and it's your end
  • You can be humiliated by a giant snail

Cons:

  • nothing I suppose :-)

Thank you for a nice game.

Developer

Thank you so much! I’m glad you appreciated the turtle-petting action. I’m sorry about the giant snail incident.

Cool game! The concept of baiting enemies is neat, and plays well as you have to think about where and when to place bait in order to succeed. I like how you kept the fishing idea through the special lures. The graphics are also good, with a nice colour palette and some well drawn sprites. I managed to get to the third floor one time, but got killed by a crocodile (alligator?) getting up in my face

Thank you! It’s very nice to hear that my design goals were successful. Glad I can still make a decent sprite too ;) Thank you so much for playing!
