Very interesting gameplay concept. Very good pixel art.

I really like the idea of the stream, the limited movement options, and the puzzle-oriented gameplay. However, the addition of the red fish, which can move anywhere it wants, made the game very difficult for me. Otherwise, it is a nice game.

After downloading the Windows build, I was able to play Fishing Bonanza.

This game is really fun. The first few levels got me extremely amused at the new types of characters that showed up at each level. It works very incrementally, and it’s not a very punishing game. At the start, you’re still figuring out how to work with the controls and the waves. Then, you have jellyfish. Then, a fish that follows you around. Then a shark (the shark made me very amused). I learned I had to risk losing some hearts to capture this little fish-bee and bring it out.

The art is very nice, the game is forgiving in that we don’t restart the whole game and only the level we’re at. I would really, really love if it could be improved upon with some music and sounds effects, but otherwise it looks very finished and polished.

Oh thank you for letting me know! I repackaged the game so hopefully the new version works? Otherwise I also added a download option, but of course I know some people prefer not to download, so its its just another option if it won't play in the browser!

It’s also crashing for me on the web build.

I reuploaded the web version to hopefully fix that error, but if it just leads to more errors I think I will have to take the L on this project haha. Thank you so much for your time showing the error as well as the other well thought out review!
