This was such a nice take on the theme. First time I've been complimented on my fitted bed sheet abilities.
It's an accomplishment that deserves recognition!!! Nothing better than a snug fitted sheet. Thanks for playing :3
I love this haha! This is super creative. Amazing job on the assets by the way!
nice art and concept. love all words you put in there (even those ones that hit the ground) :D
Great idea! such a sweet game.
This is such a great concept, it definitely made me feel great and I just love the nostalgia drawings lol ^^
The cool S will never die B) Thanks for playing~ 🥰
Such a fun concept, very wholesome game :)
Wowwww amazing art and nice wordplay! I like the idea of collecting compliments; very positive!
I really like the concept :O. Very cute game idea and well presented. The art and music is really nice and everything fits well together. The compliment messages are really funny i like them a lot. As for gameplay I just feel like the way the fishing rod moves is a bit odd and makes the gameplay a bit awkward to play. Personally I really think it would be cool if there were also insults that hurt you if you touch them so the player has to quickly read to make sure its not the wrong thing, this could make the gameplay a bit more diverse because you can just flail the fishing rod around and collect everything. But that's just an idea. Overall the game is really nice good job!
Yeah, that's a great idea, I've seen a couple of people suggest it, I do wonder if the floaty physics would make it frustrating to try and avoid the bad ones, something I definitely would try out if I was to further develop it.
I understand the physics can add a lot of unexpected difficulty but thanks for playing through it otherwise!
Thanks so much for all your feedback and ideas!! Super appreciated <3
Really fun and creative game! The physics is so fun to play around with and the art really fit the concept! Overall very cool game, well done :D
Nice game! I like the physics of the fishing rod
Simple and fun. Really loving the art!
That was insanely creative! Love the art, and the music is a nice touch. Good game.
I liked it, nice game, good for self-esteem (L) games like this make me realize that sometimes you don't have to complicate ideas too much. Congratulations, I'd swipe right on you!
Game was really cute and nice to play! Art and sounds ar well made.
I came upon an issue where I can just stack compliment on eachother when they fall on a lost compliment. Also the movement is bit weird but it's just me who can't work with it.
Overall cool theme nice game!
Gald you enjoyed it, yeah I chose to let the compliments stay positive if they stacked on another one. The idea was it adds a bit of excitement before it topples over and so it doesn't punish you for a compliment dropping where a bad one already is.
I really like the direction you chose for this theme, and your art style really compliments it!
I love the use of the limitation a lot! the graphics are also super cute, well done! my highest score is 41
Nice and simple, love the notebook vibes!
I noticed some rain in the doodles. No Water. >:3
ohh you got me! 🤭 Thanks for playing <3
Very nice silply and cool game 💙
Super creative! The hand-drawn art style ties everything together so nicely and fits the premise of the game super well. The fishing rod mechanics also make this game so much more than a simple 'click on the objects before they fall' and adds some cool skill expression. Great job!
This is such a good and awesome game! The concept and style is really neat! The fishing line physics is also interesting, audio is really nice too! Great Job, it was a very cool game, enjoyed it a lot! :)
wow I'm so glad you liked it, yeah I spent way too long trying to get the joints to not go funky but this was the best I could get. The sound effects was literally me making noises into the mic in the span of around 10 seconds, I am very proud of the pop tho!
