How does your game fit the theme?
When you go fishing, the storm becomes stronger, with bigger waves and stronger winds, and overtime the boat is going to get damaged from the strong, but there are also more expensive fish the more you stay in the storm.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, everything was made from scratch

cool game, good job
Great graphics and fish mechanic. One thing I noticed, is if you turn around the boat, keep fishing during the 30 second window and the player can't move on the dock once the timer is over. I had to restart. Other than that, I enjoyed the music / sound and upgrades too. Great job!
Thank you for your feedback! What version did you play? Because in the newer version that should be fixed
Ah got it. I was playing in the older version.
Amazing !
Pressing C doesn't cancel out of the Upgrade Ship dialogue, only pressing X does, and only near that specific NPC. You can still move during it, and if you move away, you can never get rid of it until you go next to that NPC again and press X, which could be confusing. If you then go to the shop, the Upgrade Ship dialogue is still covering everything else, including the Shop dialogue. I'm not sure this can be considered game breaking, but it's one I noticed right away.
Thank you for posting this! I've seen other people experience it, and I am going to release an updated version soon!
Thanks to everyone who gave us feedback! I'm going to release later today a short update since the bugs some of you found are, in fact, game breaking.
Also if you're interested in this game we do plan to continue working on it after the rating period is over, so you can drop a follow! :3
I like the graphics, cool vibes, and fishing mechanics.
Thank you for your feedback, can't wait to play your game!!
First of all, I love the fishing mechanic. My favorite thing to do in Stardew Valley is fish so I was right at home here haha. I also like the idea of using the small fish you catch to bait more expensive and difficult fish, it's a good risk/reward mechanic and gives small fish a good use. Unfortunately I ran into a bug that soft-locked the game, where if the ship leaves while you have a fish on the hook, you can't move or do any actions. I had a lot of fun though! Also great job to whoever did the graphics :)
Thank you a lot for the feedback and for reporting the bug!!! I'll also check out your game!
This game is simply fantastic! The gameplay is smooth, the design is stunning, and the overall experience is incredibly engaging.
Thanks for the feedback!!!
Nice take on details! Even gravity falls reference here >.<
Pretty fun and very pleasant to look at!
Thank you!!! Also glad someone finally mentioned the GF reference
I really like the theme and art direction of your game. The gameplay loop was fun and I lost more time than I thought to just fishing.
When I played it however I ran into similar bugs to another poster. There was no real indicator when the storm was happening, just noticed my health going down. And I ran into a few shop bugs. I could move during menus and if I did I couldn't close them until I walked back to the person, and the boat upgrade man made me upgrade my boat from scratch every time I went to shore.
Overall I had a lot of fun with this. I think the idea is really solid and I'd love to see it expanded on
Thanks a lot for the feedback and bug reports! if you want to see the idea expanded on, you can drop a follow, because we have more features planned that didn't make it in the game jam build (+ we need to do some balancing). Can't wait to check your game as well!!
Very cool fishing game, I really like the graphics, cool vibes, as well as the fishing mechanic.
Here's a bug I found:
I didn't get to experience the bigger waves or strong winds because the game bugged out. On my second trip when I arrive back at shore, the selling store menu popped out even though I'm not in range. From there on the player control stucks and the menu couldn't be removed and occasionally I could talk to the upgrade shop but couldn't go back on ship.
Wishlist :
When you are on board ship, I hope you can space out or just add a home button for the return key because I didn't realize you could click that. Also, I wish there was a signboard at the fish shop that points to the left for a user hint.
Final thoughts:
The purple fish was really difficult to catch, got a glimpse of the golden or bronze fish, wish I had a chance to go further and experience the storm and everything else. Overall this was pretty fun and I can't imagine the amount of work that went in to make this small game. It is very well put together and kudos to the small team for putting something like this out. Hope to see more games from you lot.
Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
As for the bug, we know the shop UIs can be a bit buggy, but I don' t think we're allowed to fix that before the rating period is over, but we're going to fix it after since we wanna continue working on the game!!
I'm glad to hear the team will continue to work on this. Is there any chance to get involve for play test or in a capacity to observe your dev work to learn?
Yes, sure! I'll probably post devlogs whenever we add new stuff, I'm really glad you're this interested!!
It is a good and chill game, very good graphics, and fishing is actually fun, very well made, it can be addictive haha, it can always be used as a part of another game, great work.
Here is my game if someone wants to try:
