Fantastic game - I would not have thought this was made in a jam timeframe. Love the music a lot - it really adds to the aesthetic, and the visuals were great. I even found myself invested in the story, and loved the little, funny quirks in the dialogue. Great job!

Hi all,
Just a heads up that 5:30-7:30pm BST (ish, may go on later) this evening i'll be reviewing Mini Jam 91 submissions live on stream. In the absence of any requests I will just work through a list of random games, though if anyone would like their game played/reviewed directly be sure to stop by and drop your link in the chat once we're live.
I'll also be running a similar session on Thursday too if needed. Hope to see you there!
Hi all! Just wanna wish everyone good luck, and for anyone struggling YOU CAN DO IT! This is my first successful Jam as a designer making a game without code, and the relief is real. I learned a lot from my previous attempts though but i'm glad to have finally managed it this time. If you 're worried that you're not good enough, that you don't know what you're doing, that it isn't worth it, just stop and breathe :) These are all lessons you're learning, and one lesson you learn today could be the thing that speeds you up during your next attempt and makes it possible.
If the game you make isn't exactly what you hoped for, still be proud. Its yours - show it off with pride! And if you don't manage it this time then don't worry, learn your lessons and go even stronger into the next one. In either case there's still a lot to be proud of!
I stream myself playing and discussing game jam games and will be doing the same for Mini Jam 91. At the very least i'll spend some time on Thursday evening (6-8pm BST) doing this, though I may also run an earlier stream in the week and spend some of my saturday stream (12:30-4:30pm BST) doing it too. I take submissions, so if you're interested in having me discuss/play your game live on stream please stop by on Twitch when i'm active - www.twitch.tv/gamedevdeputy .
Best of luck everyone :)

Also I just took this from the Mini jam 91 page describing the limitation: "The limitation is a special condition that your game must follow, but is open to interpretation. If you are unsure if your idea doesn't fit the limitation just remember that everyone will interpret it differently."
In short, it sounds like you really should include the fish mechanic. Like MissingWilliam though i'm not an official admin so this isn't an official response. Good luck!
