Lot of fun! I wish there was a way to play the mini-games directly, I don't think I even saw all of them.
Holy cow I freaking loved this!! The animations and atmosphere was amazing!! I can't believe I was feeling emotions over voice notes from people I didn't even know... This was really awesome and you know I LOVE a good fishing minigame. Really bummed I didn't catch the last fish but this could seriously be a well polished fully released game!! Really giving me firewatch vibes. Amazing work seriously!!
The minigames for catching the fish worked really well. The atmosphere of the game works really well with the voice messages throughout and the visual style. Nice job on this unique game!
Beautiful game, loved the atmosphere and the minigames for catching the fish, great job!
Played through your game on stream, if you wanted to watch me go through it ive got the vod below timestamped to your game
I really like story telling games, so I am glad that I found yours! It is very nice that there is voice acting too! I also like the mini games while fishing, it made the fishing more interesting. Very innovative game, nice work!
Totally gobsmacked by this. Beautifully executed from the slowly developing narrative to the genuine fun of the fishing mini-games (each of which was novel, it's hard enough to come up with one novel fishing mechanic!) - don't know what else to say. Great game! (Oddly my game has a lot in common (first person, narrative, water, impending doom) but done in a very different way. Check it out if you want but don't feel obliged. Cheers!)
This is an absolutely beautiful experience. From the environment to the music to the voice recordings to the slow, methodical fishing and drinking, everything fits together to form a perfect little narrative that really puts you in a certain headspace. Voice acting and visual style were real standouts. More games need intimate drinking mechanics and non-emotive but heartfelt last convos with your dad. 5/5
fishing mini games are always fun. this was a fun one
This was awesome. The visual style is really cool and I enjoyed all the fishing mini games. I'm not usually into the story in games, but the voice acting in this was so good I couldn't help but get engrossed in it. The slowly approaching meteor while I tried to catch all the fish was really interesting. I wasn't able to catch one of the fish, but I tried my best and I slammed some whiskey while the world ended. Great job on this!
Perfect graphics and some fun minigames, Great work!
wow! that was a super well done game; at first i thought it was just a chill fishing game until i saw the growing orange flaming ball in the sky approaching, and instant terror was struck into me. I verbally said "woooooah" when i saw that and heard the guy on the phone saying something about a meteor. super cool game, super fun to play, this is a winner here. Great work! :D
I liked the ambiance and immersion. It felt like a man coming to a lake to rest while fishing after an exhausting week :) Good job!
Very cool game, it has a very serene feeling. Great voice-acting, and nicely made mini-games too! A very solid entry overall. Congrats!
Cool concept! love the "im just gone stay here and do what i love" while the world is going under haha.
This was a nice game to play, liked the graphics and the story!
This is one of the best entries i've tried. You really made everything come together in a unique experience that really fits the theme! Well done!
That's a solid game and not just jam entry for sure. Polished, has a great idea, simple but engaging mechanics, great story and beatiful voice acting. It's even has a settings menu with options and stuff :) I wish there were subtitles as for a non-native speaker it was sometimes hard to undertand what were told. Great idea to put UI into the game. I love stuff like that.
Very cool entry! Enjoyed it a lot!
Wow, its Amazing!
Man i really loved the game. From atmosphere to game play to voice acting this is my fav game till now!
