I like the overal concept of the game, I wouldnt have expected a game with fishing mechanics in this jam and indeed fits well with the spin theme, I have to advice you to lock the mouse in screen so that its not going off limits when people play in non-full screen mode, but yes in full screen it works great, you can also configure in itchio it to run in full screen as default. The way we spin the reel is fun and I like how this feels like being there fishing, I can only give another little advice, make text a bit bigger, but only that, all is great really, cool game!!!

The atmosphere is faaaaaaantastic. The reeling mechanics was one of the few occasions where the "spin the mouse" action didn't bother me. The spear rotation felt a little obnoxious at times, but I was able to acclimate to it eventually. Did I mention that the atmosphere was exceptional because it was so good.

This is one of my favorite entries in the jam that I've played so far.   You've got a great premise, a fun title, amazing pixel art and sound design,  This game has fantastic atmosphere awesome job!  The fishing mechanic to bring the boss back is really funny.

Two small pieces of criticism, I'm not sure I like how the harpoon auto rotates and you have to click in time to throw it.  At least when I played it felt like there was a bit of a delay between when I clicked and when the harpoon was thrown.  Eventually I got accustom to it but it was still a little more frustrating than I would have liked.  Also I personally use a trackball mouse and the reeling mechanic was really difficult to do with it.  That's a me issue though I'm sure it's much better with a normal mouse.  If you had gamepad support I could picture the fishing feeling reely good with rotating a joystick though.

Amazing job!

Terribly slow game and I WOULDNT HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY JERRY

You sell the atmosphere perfectly you reel in, you harpoon it, you reel it in again. No upgrades between bosses, no UI, no big need for explanations after the basics. I could never reel up feaster amidst the bullet hell with my mouse, so I played it on my tablet and it was still challenging but much more doable. Second game of this jam that I profit from playing on it, I'm always happy to find those. The Feaster shows up and unlike the previous boss, it doesn't shoot a bullet hell, but just slow swims towards you. You don't need to know why, you've read its name, you're seeing its maw, you know what it wants to do. ABSOLUTE CINEMA

hey just between us i know its the spin game jam and all but once we're done with this mind releasing the game without the harpoon spinning

This game is really fun, I really liked the fishing system it has, very interesting and different from anything I've tried. I was surprised when the first boss appeared, I didn't expect a sea monster to show up after the tutorial taught me how to fish, it was awesome. The difficulty is great because the boss becomes increasingly harder to defeat, having to dodge the boss's attacks while trying to shoot it and also having to fish in between adds a lot of dynamism to the game. The second boss beat me xD, and it was also really interesting because it felt like I was playing a shoot 'em up, dodging all the attacks and trying to deal damage. I hope to beat it on my next attempt. One of the most fun gameplay systems in the JAM. Greetings!

Really cool game. The color pallete, music, and visuals are very settling. I enjoyed the uniqueness in each boss, just felt that the velocity of the spear was a bit too fast. Either way, it was veery fun to play, well done!

I love the oppressive atmosphere of the game, and the fact that you can go from bullet hell with a harpoon to fishing is great. I found it added a lot of charm to the game!

Really loved the use of the theme here and the style! I think the harpoon was a little to fast to aim correctly, and I was getting a bit frustrated but other than that it was a great experience! Great Job! :D

I had a great time playing this game!

The difficulty is very progressive and there are plenty of elements to avoid, without it being impossible.

I found the fishing mechanics perhaps a little tedious. I think I would have preferred to click and release the left mouse button to move the green bar up and down, rather than having to turn with my cursor. Of course, it would have been less in keeping with the theme, that's for sure.

But the game was interesting and fun enough that it wasn't a problem :)

Well done!

Everyone likes fishing.

Oh man, my right hand hates you, if you know what I mean. And where is my Cthulhu boss?

But nevertheless, good job, it was pleasant experience. On feedback streams I have thought that throw mechanic was a bit too clunky, but it actually feels fine and I beat the game 2nd try, though almost died on 2nd boss 2nd phase on the reeling phase, like I think that was the hardest part in the game and perhaps you made it a bit too hard, cuz it felt like reel power descended too fast and you had to constantly move at the same time, so it was hard to reel properly.

Love fighting deep sea horrors beyond my comprehension on just a lil raft. 

I downloaded the game but since I use a 1440p monitor and the game's native resolution is lower, the viewport was pushed to the bottom left corner with a big gray border filling the rest of the screen (seems to also be the case on the web version when in full screen, changing the stretch mode to viewport in project settings should be a quick and easy fix). 

The vibes were my favorite aspect of it, love the feeling of being alone, out at sea, in the dark, not knowing what might lurk below. It was challenging, but I made it all the way to ??? before the game stopped progressing. 

Nice job :)
