This was tremendous fun (after I'd bothered to read the instructions).  Great animations and sound!

This is such a cute game! The fishing mechanic was a little challenging to understand at first, but once I got the hang of it it was really fun going around and trying to find all different kinds of fish.

I liked the art, animations and the story at the start. Very succinct. The fish catching portion was hard to understand because the fish never took the hook, I feel if that was fixed it would make more sense, but decent effort nonetheless.

Developer

Thank you for playing! Yes, good point about fish, I'll try to fix it after jams finish.

Wow, the art and animations are amazingly polished!!! I love the cat dance and the underwater scenes. The day/night cycle is a cool touch too. The mini-game took awhile to figure out- I almost gave up on it--glad I didn't, because this game really is enjoyable. Maybe consider adding instructions to the game page? Although I think a couple more context clues would go a long way (like if the fish reacted a little when the hook was in sight, or if something flashed on keypress to make it clear you should tap instead of hold up/down).

Developer

Thank you for playing! And thanks for the suggestion, I thought about instructions in the game but didn't have time to do it, and forgot that I cn add instruction to the description :)

The art in this game is so cute- and the character of Fisher Cat is very expressive!! Overall, it was a tad confusing to get started, but the game was really good.

Good fun, great animation! I liked how the day/night cycle was visually represented, and the game mechanics were tight and on point for a nokia jam. Really enjoyed this one!

Developer

Thank you! Glad you liked the day/night cycle!

Isn't this the cutest thing ever??? Look how happy mr. Cat is for catching fish! Figuring out the mini game took me forever, but it was really fun and loved the pixel art!

Developer

Thanks!

Cute, simple and addictive, with a great art style that adheres well to the restrictions. I could maybe have done with a tutorial for the fishing minigame (unless there was one that I missed?), but once I figured it out how it worked it was great fun. I particularly love Mr Cat's little celebration dance when he catches a fish :)

Thank you!

The tutorial was in plans, but I didn't have enough time for it.

Nice game, good atmosphere. A taste of fishing like in stardew valley

Developer

Thanks! Yes, stardew valley was my inspiration.
