How does you game fit the theme?
The game is based in a dream. Where you are on a fishing trip with your grandpa. At the end of the game you wake up and realize...
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
All the code & assets were made by me and my friends. Except Dialogic was used to make it easier to add dialog.

Great game! Love the pun! I wonderful grappling mechanics!
Feel like this one could be improved by being able to reel yourself closer to your hook? but that's about the only criticism i can think of so still
Amazing job!
Thats one amazing game. The reel was a bit hard to control but really fun to play with.
Funny take on the word real.
I really liked the wavy effect, although it made the text a bit hard to read at times. The art was very cool and im always up for a pun on a theme!
Nice retro game!
Very interesting game ! The hook physics was unusual, but having grandpa showing how to do everything made it easier to understand ^^ ! The level design is good, the story is great and the game is really polished, with its cutscenes, cute graphics and fitting audio.
In fact, my only issue was the spikes : you sometimes can't see them very well (on a grey background, especially) and their hitbox extend above their sprites, making a lot of death feel unfair, because I didn't visually touched the spike and still died.
But that's just a detail, everything else is on point, congratulations =) !
very fun game! it has such a nice hook! :>
my main criticism is that we don't use the grapple enough.
just because we made a pun doesn't give you the right for you to make a pun alright? I never want to hear that again, I'm currently crying right now. Kind Regards, stop.
Great art and music! The game had a really strong vision with the theme and it shows!
Yeah ikr the music is really good ikr yeah ikr its amazing ikr ;) ;) ;) art is okay too.
Muck
thanks bro
This was fun, I think it could be worked into something cool. Interesting ideas that I liked were a person to follow so you know how to do certain sections (would be nice if he waited for you). There were plenty of different hazards too. Criticisms would be that rocks were hard to see, and physics feel wobbly and weird; needs more snap. Good project.
Went in really enjoying the art in the previews and was really taken by the soundtrack! You've done such a nice job on this whole game in just a week. Nice work!
thank you! the guy we forced to do the soundtrack would love the feedback :)
Loved the game world and how small the players were. It's always nice to see people design a game world with their character in mind and it seems like you did this very well.
In general the game is quite good and I liked the mechanic a lot. I look forward to see the hook mechanic totally polished (I know, I know, its one week, but now still it feels a little rigid), it will be a great game!
Great transitions, music, sound and controls - this is an incredible amount of work to get done in a week! I especially like how you learn the game by watching another character. Nice job!
Yeah I thought the music was pretty good imo
forg please stop replying to everyone talking about the sound
It's obvious you all put a lot of work into this and I'm blown away with how many levels you made.
I loved Grandpa being there to "teach me" ever step of the way.
Great job to everyone involved!
hate the person who made the ending screen but apart from that good game iykyk
thank you artistly
Honestly a great game! music is really good, man, would really want to meet that guy if you know what I mean ;)
