I liked the feel and the concept! Maybe because I was playing the browser version but fish kept randomly disappearing! Keep up the great work!

Submitted

Nice game! really liked the sound effects

Maybe its just me but that wave (although not visible once the game starts) is the best part XD

Towards the end the tractor beam gets a bit narrow so the fish keep falling (or i just play bad :P) but overall good job!!

Developer

You can scroll up to check on the fish and the waves using the up arrow / W.
Thanks, Gornemant did a great job with the sound.

I loved it, the sound effects for the fish are really satisfying. I found it a bit too hard however, as getting past 1500 seems pretty rng-based, or maybe i'm just that bad. Really good work!

Developer

It is pretty RNG :P

Nice casual game - I adore the effects and little debris physics, those are nice touches. Shame about the memory issue, but should be something fixable. Good work!

Developer

Thanks! I hope the nice touches help to make the game more enjoyable. The memory issue is a shame.

Damn, that water effect so cool. I want it!
Btw, i love gameplay, it's really good.

Effects are great and I was addicted! We all thought the same idea haha

Developer

I beat this is like the least original idea. I was trying to win in terms of quality.

Very neat game, The water and Tractor Beam look great. I do kind of wish there was a way to gain more time.  Got an error before I finished the game though :(  Great game otherwise.

You can get more time by collecting starfish. If you're on Windows, you can download the standalone version, which doesn't crash.

The little fish sprites are very cute. The movement of the waves and the seaweed being sucked in for no reason is also very good.

An error occurs just before the time is up and it aborts. Error message in attachment.

In the game where I picked up one star, the error occurred with about 16 seconds left in the game. In the game where I picked up one star and some spikes, it occurred with about 3 seconds left.

I can't play to the end because of the error, so here's a hypothetical.

If time runs out and the game ends completely, then if a player wants to see a new fish, he or she will need to improve themselves or watch a skilled player play.

This concept is not as laid back as the atmosphere this game represents, but it would be rewarding; I'd like to see fish that are below 1500.

Anyway, it was fun! Thanks for the good game.

There is not much below the 1500 line... but it might be worth it to look :>
