Fun game! I really like the graphics and sound design, and the controls are good too. Nice work.
Thanks! :)
This was really cute and fun. The movement, although is quite uncommon, felt great. Congrats.
Thank you ^^
I'm quite surprised to see this game supporting ultrawide resolution, dashing as a pufferfish never looked so good and satisfying.
Thank you for playing! Glad it worked for you since I made sure the different UI elements scale alright to different aspect ratios :)
I love the vibes of this game! The model, the colors, everything is so cute!
Thank you ^^
Love the color selection
Thank you! :)
Such a cute and fun game ! I complete all 3 races :D under 30 secondes B). Good job !
Thanks for playing and good job! :D
I really like the graphics/shading of the game, the controls feel very fluid and I picked it up pretty quickly and the music is very cachy. The only thing I wish for is a little more variety in the levels, but for a game that was only developed in a week, thats unresonable to ask for.
Overall a very fun and good submittion :)
Thank you! ^^
Love the clean flat color style of the 3D graphics! The fish is so cute ^^ Very satisfying to get little bursts of speed and watch him swim. It was a little hard to control if I missed a ring though, especially when aiming upwards it was a bit tricky to figure out his exact vector direction, so sometimes I'd miss the rings by only a slight amount and have to quickly backtrack.. Maybe a little crosshair display could have helped with that. But with a little luck, I was able to get pretty fast and perfectly navigate the rings! I was using the "spam click" strategy rather than charging up with precision. Pretty fun! Would be really cool to see an expanded version with more fishies racing! With a lighthearted cute game like this, something like 'Fall Guys' comes to mind where all the puffer fish get to bump into each other and have some shenanigans trying to get through the rings first haha.
Nice work and congrats on your first published game!! Going for a 3D web game I'd say this is a huge success!
Thank you! Yeah I should improve the math in the dash, got a bit lazy :D Oh multiplayer with multiple pufferfish bouncing around would be super funny! I'll def try it out when I'm brave enough to learn multiplayer in games, thank you for the ideas.
remined me of that one minecraft xbox 360 elytra minigame, really fun! a little bit more variety would have been nice but I guess you can't ask for much in one week, great job on modelling everything!
Thank you! :D
Its surprising how many strategies you can do with one button, good job! Very replayable and the art style is really cool, very pleasing to the eyes lol. Not to mention that this is your first published game :0. Same critique about level similarity as other comments have said, I would also like to see more stuff in the levels (maybe a few other sea creatures swimming around and stuff). I finally achieved 20 seconds on Seaweed Forest.
Thank you for the kind words and feedback! ^^ That's a good idea to have different sea creatures swimming around in the levels, I actually wanted something like that originally but decided to keep the scope small :D In future updates perhaps
Good idea to keep the scope small at first!
This is such a cute game! I love the art style of the 3D models, especially the pufferfish! The levels do feel similar, but having the environments look very different from each other, like an underwater cave or a cluttered coral reef, could make them each of them feel unique. Really cool game! It was fun racing to collect the rings as quickly as possible :D
Thank you for the feedback! ^^ The underwater cave is such a good idea as well as the cluttered coral reef.
Love the game! there aren't many differences between levels though, I'd love to see some more things going on, otherwise great job :)
Thank you for the feedback! :)
the models look amazing, and the movement feels really satisfying, nice job
music is very sweet too
Thank you! ^^
I really love the colors and shading you have! Simple and fun. Great game.
Thanks! :)
Simply in love, thank you so much for this wonderful experience!
Thank you! ^^
awesome game bud
Thank you! :D
Super cute and cozy, but rather frustrating to control, but that just adds to the charm.
I would love to see and update for this after the jam :D
Thank you! ^^ I do have plans to improve the game based on all of the feedback I've gotten, also create more levels, perhaps a network leaderboard, touchscreen controls, and release this game on the Google Play store. :)
Wow this is fun! It's great to see something engaging condensed down into one button. You really nailed it - it was fun to learn how to get control over the fish and master the ability. And this game is definitely cozy - the aesthetics are cute and sweet, while still being on point and meshing with the racing gameplay. As creators of a cozy fish game ourselves, congrats on threading that needle really well!
Thank you for the kind comment, truly appreciate it a lot :)
I love the simplistic visuals in this game! I enjoyed it, however I struggled to control the direction of the dash at times.
Thank you for the feedback! Appreciate it :)
The game is super fun to play, it's short but just fun to do. The pufferfish is adorable. Great game!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed! ^^
