Incredible game man!
The only thing I would change with this game, is adding more types of fish, possibly rare fish that get you more moneys
Haha really cool ! Nevertheless, If I have to improve something; it's difficult to know if the fishes are currently biting or not. Maybe a little music(jaws:))?
Pretty fun! A great throwback.
Nice, very polished simple.
For the longest time I was fishing without bait and wondering why I was not catching anything. Almost gave up on it until I accidentally moved too far to the right.
i agree about the more fish types
It took me a while to figure out that I needed to buy bait, but once I did I really enjoyed it! Fantastic graphics as well. I'd love to see an updated version with more types of fish.
clever take on the theme! The movements a little cumbersome, but I understand where you're coming from. It's a little unclear at first that you need to buy bait. Maybe some cheap freebee bait at the start would've helped. The clues that the fish is hooked isn't immediately intuitive but I got the hang of it quick. would play again, good job!
Nice job referencing that retro style. I love the old school sound effects, especially when you reel in. T'was lots of fun.
Really polished game! It's also nice and simple, I enjoyed playing it, great job. :D
It's a fun little game. The minnow bait is OP. I think I caught 5 fish at once with it.
It would be cool to see more fish types, rod types, etc. Heck, you could really pack this game out with some more fun stuff, but then that requires more than just 48 hours. Nicely done
Hi there. Like the game, nice retro feel. At last a generous fishing game... I caught quite a bit, like the sounds as well as pixels. Good job!
Really nice game - good art and nice gameplay. The music works, but would have loved another hipster acoustic guitar riff - perfect for the long nights ice fisihing!
Very cool and fun!Great job!
Heh, okay this was great! ^^
Simple and fun! Cool retro graphics and sounds. Some feedback on fish that caught bait would be nice.
This was super neat. Well done!
I was attracted to this by the gfx - nice retro style! Like a few others I didn't notice the bait thing at first so maybe something as simple as a flashing arrow over the bait-house for when the player fishes without any?
Good stuff!
This is in my top 3 for this LD. It's incredible what was completed in a weekend here.
I really liked the overall style of this game, and it's quite relaxing to play, great work!
Cool concept and graphics! Funny game :D
I really like your use of the theme for this game! The retro graphics and audio worked nicely, and I felt the gameplay meshed well with that!
A few minor things to potentially fix, when you reset your game the bait doesn't dissapear from the little window, and it's a bit too easy to accidentally buy doughballs at the bait shop.
Apart from that, this game was really cool!
Exceedingly pleasant! Nice graphics and happy, enjoyable music.
This was a decent little arcade game. You took a lot of inspiration from the 80s arcades on this one, but I think you may have taken a bit too much. Much like those old arcade games, the gameplay was very flat and uninteresting. It was just a matter of pressing up and down, there wasn't really any conflict or tension driving the gameplay. It's a good start to something, and I could see this mechanic working in a game like mother load where your goal is to fish up a whale or something. As it is right now, it's not bad, it just feels like an unfinished thought.
Very good game!
Great, loved everything about it. Amazing job. :)
