I love this concept and it felt really relaxing to play, controls took a minute to understand but once that happened I found it relatively easy to play!
I think the idea is very creative and the music is really well made :]
Love that you included UI indicators for the wind and sea!
Creative and deceptively challenging. I love the two different forces you control, it was a cool dichotomy and a simple yet complex control scheme. I also liked that since you aren’t controlling the ship/fish directly, sometimes it’s hard to get them to do what you want. With the debris as well, there’s a lot of strategy for such a simple game. I do think it might work better on a larger, scrolling map, through, so you don’t get trapped on the edge. Nice job!
Cool reversal of fishing games. I really enjoyed it!
I see the fisherman is having a bad day today.
Good background music tho.
Worked out such little things as pointers to fish and the direction of the wind and water flows.
Good job.
wow the water looks really good
I found the concept and visual elements of the game enjoyable, totally dig the water, this is actually the first game I see in the jam about boats and water so kudos on the creativity too!
overall a solid entry, great work!
Water and boat look amazing! Being the waves and wind was a super cool role reversal! It really made me feel like I was working against someone hahahaha
This was a difficult game. It was hard to control the wind and the boat. I did get the garbage once. Yahoo!
