Ranked from 9 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does you game fit the theme?
Game is about fishing up fish that exist only in your dreams. It's also a play on words, being there are no fishing reels in the game, just a spear, so you could say "It Is Not Reel,"

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No, 2D Character Controller was sourced from a Brackey's tutorial, amongst other things. Music, sprites, fish AI, and other stuff was made from scratch.

I had a problem that the UI don't scale well in my laptop but i get the idea of the game. However the art and the ambience together make a nice relaxing esperience. Well done!

This game is amazing! I absolutely love the pixel art, you are an amazing artist!

I just rated your game, maybe you can do the same on mine ^_^

It feels really cool getting to catch the fish and I could tell the logs had funny explanations in them, but the UI didn't scale to my laptops screen size so I couldn't read them :( In Unity there are canvas options that can scale the UI to the screen size. Other than that, really cool idea for the game.

Ty, I’ll look into that!

I enjoyed the relaxing nature of the game, being able to just sit back and enjoy it. I love the artwork and atmosphere overall. Also really enjoyed the funny names and types of fish. Overall great game, well done!

I have caught a Jhonny. This is the peak of my gaming career.

Jokes aside, I really enjoyed the music and the funny fishes, and while there's not much of a challenge, I think the peaceful atmosphere is more than enough.

wdym jokes aside this is the peak of your gaming career, once you've caught Johnny you can retire, there's nothing left to be done /j

I quite enjoyed the music. The game would do well with a breath meter and cooldown to the spear dash.
