Fun game. I acomfished mission. At first I didn't understood why progress wasn't moving, and only after looking at the comments, I learned about the ship mechanic.  I didn't even see arrow on the tutorial and was confused, why is it to move I need to click an empty book. The gameplay was fun and I loved being able to use different weapons. Good job!

Thanks for playing! Yeah the book thing was a bit dumb by me

Submitted(+1)

Couldn't actually move, strange

Developer

Yeah, you need to press the book on the top right before actually starting, should’ve made it differently haha

I moderately enjoy zombie games. this is fun

oh was not expecting voice over, already love it!

I have the impression that I am doing something wrong ... 

I cant move:


Developer

Yeah haha you gotta press the book button on top first to take a look at the tutorial. I put that part together last second so it doesn’t read very well mb

Cool game! It was challenging and fun. The enemies shooting just as they appear from the hole made closing the doors really hard and a bit unfair, but that might just be me being bad at the game. It was fun having three different weapons. Great game! :D

Thank you! Yeah hahah, I will fix that once the jam is over!

Fish in a top hat,? Count me in!  Fun idea, definitely had some barriers to entry (the password, I didn't know how to move until I read your comments about clicking on the book). 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I made you click the book before starting so you knew there was a tutorial and realized it was a bad idea after uploading haha. Password is removed too!

What a great game, I really like dog food but for the first time I think i migth try fish...

Great game, very intense! Tough i was FISHgting (hehe) for my life im achually hooked (hehe again :P)! Gosh dan those pesky fisherman were an inten se bunch.
