Navigating throught the icelandic sea, your goal is to collect as many fish as possible to make delicious sushis. Don't worries about fishing quotas or in danger species, there is planty of fish in the sea. Thought, that may upset some guys, they may want to bump into you. If you pissed them off enought, they may drop some submarine mines too, just saying.
I liked the way the boat's path was controlled and represented on-screen. It was funny to realize I could net the larger fish, too! The graphics were also excellent, good concept.
Harder than it looks! Nice game :)
The control scheme is innovative, but hard to get the hang of. Great visual effect with the water! Could use some sound, though I know it's hard to find the time to get music in...
Hi, this is Vector from the Victory Garden team! (posting under Solifuge's account)
The art for this is great, and I like the way it controls--it's really smooth and feels like a boat. I played a couple times, though, so it would be nice if the game-over screen gave you your score and let you start a new game (rather than just giving a splash image). Also--I know it says you have techno music, but I couldn't hear anything despite having the volume cranked up really loud. That's a technical issue you might want to look into.
Thanks for the game!
This is cool, great take on the theme.
Fun game! Didn't like that I needed to reset the browser to restart the game. I was also missing sound.
Cool controlling mechanic like previously noted.
Great game :D cool water effect. very innovative idea for controlling the player. great graphics too. very good drawings :)
Now I'm hungry for some sushi :) Nice one!
Nice looking game!
Great graphics. It was fun to ship around but pretty hard.
Nice GFX: both art and special effects! I like the water.
Also the controls are really unique, an interestin sea faring experience.
Took me some time to understand how to move, graphics are great.
Neat graphics/gfx and good idea.
The art IS great, you are lucky with Angel!
It looked great and there quite a few different aspects to this game.
I personally didn't like the control scheme. You had to follow the boat and drag with the mouse. Controlling with LEFT/RIGHT would be more logical I think.
It is possible to get off screen I found out and then there is no other possibility than restart. Which would have been nice if there was a button for it.
The instructions (using space) were off screen for me, so if you made the screen just a little smaller, I would know a bit sooner how to deploy a net. Or put instructions on this page.
But those are all the (hopefully constructive criticisms I have).
Great graphics and animations! Would be nice to see this game finished. I found one bug: it's possible to leave the screen and there is no way to come back.
The marvellous team thank all for your awesome comment/criticism :)
