Sorry if I'm wrong but my analytics section says 0 Ratings, so I figured no one had rated my game. Thanks to anyone who did rate it and gave me feedback.
I've rated 28 games and given feedback for all those games and received 0 ratings despite getting good feedback about my games environment and mood. Pretty disappointed that I wasn't given the same courtesy I gave everyone else.
Fish Mechanic was imaginative, UI all seemed to work and stayed with the style of the game. Missing Sound and music to add some feel to it. Good Effort
Good Job, Fishing mechanic worked and was easy to work out, style of the game was different and I actually liked the feel. Hover car felt slapped on and actually took over the fishing aspect too much. Had more fun launching off hills than fishing. UI had a couple of bugs, and the buy sell screen needs to scale down buttons as it was hard to look at.
Nice try, first game is never going to be perfect but you completed it and managed to upload a working game so great work, fishing mechanic from Ryan's tut worked ok. I actually Liked your basic level feel, it all fit stylistically, next time add some background music and match your text font to the games art style.
Fishing mechanic is unclear as others have said, movement of character with the busy texture on the ground was hard on my eyes. Also found reel sound glitched on loop at one point. Novel Idea it just didn't hit for me.
Couldn't get into this game, No sound, fishing wasn't fun and the drone wasn't really adding anything for me. Do appreciate that it looked like you made some custom assets.
Nice twist on fishing theme, eagle movement was OK, improving the feeling of turning and hovering etc would really help make it feel more fun. once you get the timing down to catch the fish it's too easy. Water impact sound and particle effects needed to make it more satisfying when you catch one.
It was fun but only for a few minutes. Good Submission
Fishing mechanic was different but the mouse cursors reaction time made it hard to enjoy. Need to make all the UI, Environment and other assets feel right together. the menus did all work and I didn't notice any bugs.
Thanks for the feedback, should have spent more time on the fishing mechanic. Had plans for more but ran out of time and a lack of tutorial didn’t help. Going to upload a more finished version once the voting closes.
Thanks, glad you get a sense of story and mood. Going to try and fix those animations and controls for sure. I’ll have to try some eq on that reel sound maybe. Don’t worry about being nit picky. Everything you mentioned will help me develop a better game and that’s what we should all be doing for each other.
Will have a more finished demo ready once votings done. Ran out of time to do the settings menu. Will add sound sliders for everything. Thanks for the feedback
thanks for the feedback, ran out of time in the end, got a trade mechanic nearly done, fixed the boat, and will implement more of the story that was hinted by the picture in the boat. Will release a more finished demo once game jam voting ends.
Very well put together, art style, music and sound design, UI all consistently good. A fun educational game but not really a fishing game. Didn't find any bugs. Great work
Story and art design worked with the style of game. Plenty of direction to help the player progress. UI was buggy though and the inverted mouse controls weren't enjoyable. fishing mechanic wasn't very strong.
Had a hard time getting what was going on with the fishing mechanic at first but a lot of thought had been put into it at least. Every visual aspect of this game was clashing and the UI wasn't very appealing. In saying that being a first game that's a lot to accomplish so Well Done!
Fishing rod physics were great and animation worked well enough, skybox didn't fit the game art style. was annoying I couldn't move around the boat to fish. Catching the fish was too easy. Narration wasn't my thing but it kept me playing till the end so good job.
Great Entry, Fishing mechanic is very good, game assets all fit well. A lot of potential. Improved UI Styling and Sound Design/music are the main improvements needed. Also so badly wanted to be able to drive the boat. Upgrades should have been more expensive also.
I think it was unable to extract the zip for some reason. Looked it up and said the file could be corrupted, but then I saw other people had played it so I was stumped. Really wanted to try all the games. I’ll try again and let you know.
All good man, I was the same. Up till 1:30am trying to get my file size down to 1Gb only for my boat to not accelerate properly in my shipped build despite working in editor. And I had no tutorial to help the player.
Liked this game Idea, fishing mechanic was nice but not challenging enough, game style and UI were consistent and I liked the choice of music. Everything I interacted with worked properly.
Hi Guys Sorry about my submission, unfortunately I discovered the boat acceleration was broken in the shipped build after the closing time. Any ratings or comments on the rest of the game are appreciated. This is the first time I've uploaded a game ever and I wish I had found the issue earlier because it was an easy fix.
If anyone has questions about any of it feel free to ask.
You had a lot of different systems implemented and they all worked but the game lacked a cohesive feel, the style of the UI and environment didn't look right together. I didn't enjoy the fishing mechanic as much as some of the others I've tried. the boat moved but wasn't fun to drive. The game had all the working parts but it didn't feel like it had any direction.
Game assets looked nice, Ui and widgets all filled your stylistic theme and worked well, music was right choice for laid back fishing game. Was hard to tell when to start reeling in the invisible fish!. level although fitting the theme wasn't very interesting. the fishing mechanic wasn't very satisfying.
Good work on menu system didn't experience any glitches.
Like the twist on the fishing theme, but the mechanic was a little simple. The UI and game style didn't really feel cohesive and the water environment could of been better. Fun at first but need ed to become more challenging after each level.
Great Fun, Consistent styling UI and Gameplay, satisfying fishing mechanic. Improved animations and more variation in gameplay are the only things i could say. Best game jam game so far.
Styling of game was good, boat movement was satisfying enough, water ambience sound cut out at one point and widgets wouldn't close or were doubling on top of each other. Improving your widget functionality and style to match the game style would be good. fishing mechanic was average though, not challenging enough.
Hey I played your game too, It's well put together, UI is nice and everything worked well. managed to get the boat but stuck on how to collect fish with the boat. Game has lots of playabilty, great level design just lacking a real fishing mechanic. Let me know if i'm missing something because other than that I was impressed.
