A chill, quiet game (if you leave out the loss screen. I guess that made it even more punishing haha). Really good take on the theme, on multiple fronts too. Loved the pixel art. Especially the elder fish animations and the aquarium.
Stuff that could probably use some improvement: It wasn't very clear to me what I needed to do at the beginning, so I spent a little time in the 1st room just looking around. The randomly spawning baby fish were also a little frustrating, as the clock was always ticking but sometimes you'd get 1 fish in a room and it wouldn't drop scales for a bit.
Cheers!
