I absolutely LOVED this game! It did get a bit frustrating honestly, but I'm used to the Stardew Valley fishing mechanics lol. The fighting aspect of the game was a bit challenging, just due to the controls being a bit weird and constantly getting stuck on islands and rocks while trying to escape the pufferfish. I wish there were WASD controls, or at least making space bar another option to shoot instead of using my mouse, just so I can keep both of my hands in the same place (but that could just be my brain not cooperating with my hands).
I loved the fish so much, they really made me laugh! The artwork is amazing and the sounds/music were spot on. Great job on this amazing game!
Favorite fish:
Thanks for your kind words! I agree with some of the difficulty, I got my boat stuck countless times while play testing.
this feels like Dredge (one of my favorite games of the last year) a bit in the fishing mechanics but more comedy oriented .... I love the creativity behind each fish as well and the soothing music kinda contrasts well with the ridiculousness of each fish
Nice concept!
Very unique and goofy game. I found the sensitivity on the way the fishing bar raises/lowers to be difficult to control.
Well, that was the weirdest fish I have seen this jam, and that is saying something. Very creative. Great entry!
This game is the Bomb.com! I really enjoyed the fishing mechanic and the art was really pretty!
I especially liked the fish portraits <3
Its a really good game and reeling the fish in is like Stardew Valley.
Nice game, thanks
Thanks! Stardew Valley was the inspiration for the fishing
This game is so silly, I love it. The driving the boat and fishing mechanic was fun, but when I got to the boss fight I couldn't figure out how to attack it. I tried to shoot it with left mouse but it just cast the fishing rod at it and did no damage.
Thanks for playing! There's a minigun that appears, but it probably isn't noticeable enough.
Cute! I love that the background is the same as the ingame waters! Sound is great as well
Haha funny game! Wish I could start at the boss after hitting try again.
Thanks for playing! I totally agree, didn't think of making that a feature until it was too late
Honestly I laughed a lot at this game, I didn't expect an idea like this at all and god the art, it's beautiful and funny at the same time hahaha
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for playing
