I'm a simple man - if you can catch fish in your game, I like your game.
The implementation of fish silhouettes in the water is super impressive from the technical stand point. I don't know exactly how you did it, but it feels like a combination of using shaders and procedural animation. Really cool that you've found time for something like that!
One thing I wish was in the game is some sort of shop to sell your fish to. I don't even want any upgrades or anything, it's just that without it the cycle of fishing minigame feels incomplete :)
Good job!
Thanks for the feedback! The fish silhouettes are just a few circles that follow each other, with the small screen resolution it gives a cool effect that's not too hard to implement (this is similar to how they did the hair in Celeste). I also wanted to make the fish look a bit more rigid by forcing the angle of the tail to be the same as the head but I couldn't fix a bug where large fish would wrap around themselves when turning too fast.
Excellent work! It's wonderfully polished and I think tying Yahtzee-style rerolls to a catch-and-release mechanic is a really clever idea
Might be a bit biased because I love fishing minigames, but this is an awesome entry! Control scheme is super tight and pretty original, presentation is awesome + the dice integration is dope. I love the hidden areas around the map as well. With a few different areas + features I would happily play + pay for a full version of this. Awesome work man!
OMG this is super cute and super creative, also very very pretty and well made. Congratulations, had a nice relaxing time catching some fish!
Great concept and theme implementation! For a 48-hour jam game, this is really good!
Very interesting concept. A good mix of fishing and dice elements very creative. You might add some story or some kind of goal. Because after catching some fish I feel like nothing left to do. I would like to see future of this game. Nice work ^^
