The end made is so downhearted how you have to keep injecting him to make him to live longer İ think? Which also makes him suffer, it's tearjerking. But the game was also adorable <3

It's a fish Tamagotchi! The hand drawn art and mini-games are relaxing and quite a throwback to a classic toy.

Hello there! I'll try to explain my experience without spoiling anything. I opened the game and could not figure out how to play (the console buttons don't stand out from the background so I thought they were just decoration), so I opened the game page and found out how to play. However, it took me a bit of time and when I came back to the game, the "history had progressed" and the game keeps the state saved, so I missed on the opportunity to play completely (I've tried to mouse-click everything on the screen and click keys at random). I could probably search for the data and remove it from my pc to play from the beginning, but that's too much a hustle :( It's a shame because the art, ambience and concept look really good.

I suggest, at least in the context of a GameJam, to add a restart option so nobody misses out on trying the game. If there's an easy way to fix this and allow me to play the game, please respond to my comment and I'll give it another go!

I didn’t think of that happening. Apologies for that. If you’re interested in giving it another shot, deleting the save data is actually pretty simple.

Go to this file path in File Explorer, locate the file called “catfish”, and simply delete it.

Agh, I searched for it in Roaming but tried to find something along the lines of /Catfish x) Thanks for helping me out! Going to play it right now :)
