So the fishing mechanic is nice, little bug where I caught a bubbamunda or something but it didnt unlock slot 4 (still showed ?????).
The ????s are a nice touch because you want to keep playing until you have unlocked everything.
Eating the fish is also good as that makes your character bigger.
Next steps:
- Why does your character growing make a difference? Maybe a small character cant catch bigger fish (message says they got away…) That way I need to eat fish to get bigger.
- Different fish could be more or less points (eating removes the points)
- Time limit so the player has to weigh up eating to catch bigger fish with potentially scoring fewer points or somthing if the time runs out.
But a solid mechanic with plenty of space to be creative and develop the idea :)
