I really like the concept :O. Very cute game idea and well presented. The art and music is really nice and everything fits well together. The compliment messages are really funny i like them a lot. As for gameplay I just feel like the way the fishing rod moves is a bit odd and makes the gameplay a bit awkward to play. Personally I really think it would be cool if there were also insults that hurt you if you touch them so the player has to quickly read to make sure its not the wrong thing, this could make the gameplay a bit more diverse because you can just flail the fishing rod around and collect everything. But that's just an idea. Overall the game is really nice good job!

Yeah, that's a great idea, I've seen a couple of people suggest it, I do wonder if the floaty physics would make it frustrating to try and avoid the bad ones, something I definitely would try out if I was to further develop it.
I understand the physics can add a lot of unexpected difficulty but thanks for playing through it otherwise!
