the incredibly compressed low quality text actually made it better. I actually never raged while playing it and smiled all the way through. That might be because I gave up at the second hill but uh yeah good job :)

I liked the idea! Little fish getting up the rock, but I was confused on what controls i should be doing. I was just doing everything with my mouse and stacking the fishes together so the rock wouldn't roll down. I don't know if thats actually what im suppose to do or not, but yeah nice work!

Rainbow Fish Goes to CollegeCouldn't finish but the game since fair and doable. The fish have a bad tendency to go thought the boulder thought.

Long live Tony!Fun idea xD I believe that improving the controls a bit would make it a good game to kill some time. Maybe moving with WASD, and using the LMB as a headbutt/kick? Perhaps that would give the player a bit more of control. I felt that just using the LMB was a bit unpredictable, it depended a bit much on luck for the fish to kick the rock and make it fly a few meters up.
But anyway, fun game, especially the motivational part of the voice-over xD

Moby's QuestI like the concept of the game. Didn't make it far because I'm not good at this genre but I had fun trying!

PufferDashA very well made rage game, I may or may not have ragequit after watching the boulder roll down the big hill on the right only to realize I had to balance it at the top :D

FISHTOXICATIONThe myth of Sisyphus is one of my all time fav texts and I felt this game captured that really well and I love it and spent a good bit of time working my way up! It also reminds me of "Getting over it". I think my only criticism would be that the fish could have been any other thing so it does feel slightly random without the context of the jam

CatFishingMan, this made me realize that they really did Sisyphus dirty...
Imagine having to do this for ALL ETERNITY!
It made me ragequit, but I guess that's the goal, so... good!
