Saw the devlog on streak.club and loved the art of the game since the beginning. The gameplay works well and push you to do better, I like a lot the tricks you can do!

Submitted

So cool! I love the initial launch, it's all so satisfying. The tricks took me a few tries to get the hang of, but really good fun once I knew what I was doing. Hilarious audio on the fish too haha. Great job!

Submitted

Best visuals I have seen so far in this jam, they are ready assets but you choose it tastefully. I could not do more than 2 tricks but with more effort I am sure it is doable. This is a very nice and neat little game, bravo!

Submitted

Cool and fun game. Reminded me a bunch of games about doing tricks from the past. I felt like whenever I was doing fine (more that 2 tricks, so not that good, but still) I ended up skipping score, but at the same time forcing a pause may stop a fun fast paced feeling. Maybe keeping score from the last round at the side in case of accidental skip. Great job with the game!

Such a good game ! Well polished :3 Gonna retry to 100% it >:3... Good job !

Really cool and so fun! This is one of those that is a bit addicting... every time I lost I felt the need to start again when I should have been rating it already, haha.

Most people seem to have got the hang of it a bit easier than I did, so maybe this is more a me problem, but I had a hard time understanding the game right off the bat, and it took me a couple runs to understand what all was at play. I also just found the controls to be a bit uncomfortable, specifically with shift.

But I couldn't be grumpy with it. The game oozes happiness and good vibes, especially every time you hear that fabulous "WEE!" sound. Good work! Now if you don't mind, I might go do just one more playthrough...

real awesome game !! makes me feel like alive again!

Awesome game! Really fun and silly concept. Loved bouncing around the clouds and the audio was really nice. Good work :)

Great game , everything works really well together,  My only 3 suggestions  are to force the game to stop the end of the round and show your score at the end. there were some times that I had an amazing run and then accidentally pressed jump to have that score erased , secondly I like that the camera zooms out as the player goes up and in as the player comes down but I think the zoom in gets a little to tight  as the player gets to the grounds and lastly I would make the jump timing a little more forgiving for the clouds as the player gains speed as the player approaches the ground.  This game has a lot of potential and was a lot of fun! it really takes me back to my days of playing the first SXX tricky on PS3 . <3

That is amazing, thank you for playing!

I was certain that no-one will ever get beyond 1-2 tricks. 95?  That is wild. Practically a perfect dive as well. 

I'll definitely make the adjustments. If you have any other feedback, please do share.

I love games that give me that  like tony hawk , ssx vibe , but was not expecting to find it in a flying angle fish game , I hope that you find the inspiration to turn this into a full game ,  the concept is strong in my opinion.  I would say just the expected content that would be in like a sport trick game, but with  your own twist ,more fish , and skins . I would love to see this fish in a monocle and a top hat like the monopoly guy different score points and multipliers,  and a story how did the fish end up in the bowl ?   the possibilities are endless here! I will follow for more updates if you do any but I added to my collection I will be playing again !

I was actually trying to capture the feeling of timing and anticipation from real snowboarding. So it's great that it naturally reminded you of ssx and tony hawk games. 

I've also build the 3D in a way that i can easily convert it into a VR game if the concept feels good. I just need to figure out how to make cloud hopping more satisfying, to have smooth continuous movement that is fully under players control. 

Maybe you can also go for the SSX vibe in your next jam?

Submitted

that's a great idea but I don't even know where to start.  I would but I will have to think of something in 2d I am not ready for 3d yet . I love the idea of combos.

I really miss games like this (achieving the highest distance, etc). I used to play a lot of flash games like this as a kid. I loved the game, audio, visuals, gameplay, everything is 5/5! I just missed some upgrades for the fish.

It would also be cool to unlock new fish, including a Flying Fish.

Submitted

Very fun game, ended up playing for quite a while!  Just to add in, you might want to clarify which shift key to use since only one works in game.  I was using the wrong one at first.  Other than that, the game's solid and very cute.
