Great game with a super creative idea!
THIS IS AWESOME, ai feels great and art is awesome <3
Good game
Really calm and peaceful... Until a whale is charging at you from somewhere.. Music also fits, and the game is very simple and fun to play. Overall, really nice!
cool!
Very nice and smooth animations and art! Really had a blast making my salmon army haha but had some issues with the camera being able to go very far away from the pack but that was about it
Thanks for playing! Yeah, I try to implement a dynamic camera when Jonas gave another hour for submissions, but I was too tired already ahah
The art is really cool and it feels satisfying to control the group of fish! Even though I didn't really get the jam theme it is an great base for a complete and "deep" game! Well done!
Regarding the theme, my main idea was to have a boids system that as a mob mind. You control the general movement and give comands to the mob, but the individual fish will make it's own path (decision). There is a lot to add here: panic flee from sharks, auto feed due to hunger, etc. That's the A.I.
Thank you for playing 🙂
Oh yes you are definitely right, the gameplay was so smooth that I didn't think about the boids! Actually it's a very clever idea!
Woooow SHARKS! Thats totally my game :D
It was quiet some fun swimming around in a school of fish. And hey I even lerned something: Swimming around in a scool of fish is apperantly called schooling. Nice!
Only thing I would have changed would be the shark sound, it sounded a little like a lion, otherwise cute little game!
yeah audio was a bit of a struggle, what sound does fish and sharks make? I don't know, so I just used a sound effect pack I bought some time ago.
Thank you for playing and giving some feedback!
Really amazing game, i absolutely love the music, the chillness of it, the work on the animations and the schooling movement is brilliant. Awesome stuff :D
This is great! Feels pretty chill with the music, and gameplay is fun and responsive. Really dig the artstyle aswell, the way the fish turn around is actually impressive! Great work
Thank you for playing!
Great game with amazing visuals.
Check out mine too if you want: https://itch.io/jam/wowie-jam-4/rate/1663718
interesting little game, found it a little hard to connect to the theme, i suppose the fish are the ai and you are the school? I really liked the Art style though and it was a nice relaxing game
Such a pretty relaxing game.
Really fun and simple game with a great artstyle! Good job!
lovely game. I can imaging if we can play longer, we can see the flock growing and growing and become a legendary in the sea. it is both relaxing and exciting while playing. good job!
Definitely an interesting interpretation of the theme. It fits for sure and it's got an interesting game loop which was quite fun to try and get a high score with. I will say as though there does seem to be some risk vs reward with how the plankton spawns. Though there's not much strategy that at least from what I can tell, could be employed, since you're not above to really get a broad picture.
You're generally reacting quite quickly to sharks, unless you move them off screen quite fast. Which did happen to me a bit so that was nice. Though it seems like the plankton spawns relative to you.
Which means that if you have the sharks off screen you're likely missing out on plankton. I could be wrong on that it just seemed as though when I strayed near one place the plankton popped up in the same spawns a decent amount of of times. I also assume it could be used to avoid using a finite map, by making sure all the spawns are near you and so the map can sort of "move with you".
Overall though, an interesting high score based game, that has a bit of strategy to, though I didn't really use the split up the school mechanic that much. It did seem to have some potential.
Thank you so much for streaming the game! It is extremely valuable and will help me improve the game in the next iteration.
Such a relaxing game,>:>
Interesting idea, with a simplistic art style and gameplay. Had fun playing it, Good job!
Very nicely done. Anybody who says this is relaxing doesn't share my terror of sharks :D
Thanks for playing! Maybe I'll add a mode where it's not sharks but something else ahah
