Well one of us was reeled in at the end... Great game, I really enjoyed the "fish" designs. I liked the dramatic sfx when you started reeling
funspooky game!Thanks for playing, glad you liked it!
Honestly, a great submission! The music is great to set the atmosphere and the fishing mechanism is really entertaining! I couldn't catch the Bertha but I was engaged until the very end.
Is it possible to catch it by the way? Since it's supposed to be an horror game, I'm wondering if my death against the Bertha was scripted or not. 🤔
Regardless, great job!
SPOILER ALERT DON'T READ ON PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T PLAYED! No it's not possible! Once you 'catch' it it pulls you under and that's the end of the game, so congrats on completing it! :) Thanks for playing and glad you enjoyed it!
I see. So it was scripted indeed!
Aight, I had doubts since I felt like I was fishing pretty well and my mouse was really staying in the circle. I guess I got some mysterious Kevins instead. xDDDD
Thanks for the clarification man!
Peak! That ending was fantastic and the fishing mechanic is so engaging, it just is fun to play and I would love to play more!
Ah thanks glad you like it and thanks for playing!
I haven't even managed to catch the Bertha yet, and for me it's already a 5-star rating in every respect for this game! The fishing mechanics work very well and the art and audio put me in a state of incredible thrills! I died on the third backchat barry, 600m in depth, I'll be back later to finish this game!
Ah really glad you like it! And you're very nearly there! Thanks for playing!
