In what way does your game fit the theme?
You have to eat fish but you have to split the swarms up because they are STRONGER TOGETHER

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
the base of my flocking algorithm is from this guy --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjKINQigAE4. The rest I did completely on my own from scratch. (Font is in public domain)

I like the graphics and idea. But it seemed a little laggy in the browser and because of the background moving with you I it first didn't notice I even moved. It's a cool concept though

Developer

thanks. it' probably beacause of the flocking algorithm. it's quiet CPU intensive and I haven't had the time to do multithreading yet, so it's gpoing to lag a bit on weaker machines. Thanks for the review!

A unique idea for me so far. I wish it would zoom the camera out more though and perhaps have the background not move with the shark so much as to create a sense of speed.

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! I had a different backround, that I basically copied from brackeys shugar warrior first but I changed all my graphics and could figure out how to do it in time. if there will be any updates, that's something i would definetly do

Most unique concept I have come across so far!

Developer

Thank you! I just got into flocking  when I noticed that the brackeys jam was running

The flocking was really cool. I like how you used it in that different way than regular flocking uses.
