Like the overall gameplay. Has lots of weird UI decisions but like the way it works.

Visually nice. The boating management was interesting, but the game felt a bit slow, but I supposed that can't be helped with this genre. A good entry.
I like it. Chill. UI could be a bit nicer (mainly everything is too hard to read, it's all so small!) a nice little fishing simulator :)
The low poly graphics graphics has been implemented in a really nice way, and really suits the kind of theme this game has. But just one tip, I don't know which version of Unity you are using, but if its the later ones, I suggest you use a tool called "Textmesh Pro" from the asset store. It helps make the UI a LOT better, and your game needs that right now. Anyways, great job with it.
Nice and relaxing gameplay. Although upgrades prices sometimes feel weird. And with lots of boats micromanagement gets quite complicated. Would be great if you could select and give commands to your boats without resetting the time warp to 1x speed. Overall quite enjoyable, nice job!
Neat game, has a lot of very simple systems that don't interact with each other though, so the gameplay doesn't feel very complex. The look is pretty good, music is nice. UI is a little hard to read. Yeah, I probably should have increased the speed.

This has quite a lot of mechanical complexity, surprisingly so for a 48 hour effort. I'm a fan of the art, got a bit of a weak spot for pixely stuff. You may want to improve the UI a bit. It looks unpolished; things like font sizes are a bit off. Nice job overall!
** Fun **
The game was quite fun. My first time selling my fish got me quite much money. But after that not so much( yeah, I changed the harbor where i sold the fish)
** Innovation **
I have not played many games like this, but i know there are some :p.
** Theme **
You got the theme pretty good..
** Audio **
Liked the background music (:
** Graphics **
Nice low poly graphics. Good fish effect. Well done.

** Mood **
Really nice mood. The music really got me a bit to the sea (:
** Overall **
I really liked it. But i don't know really why.. Since i didn't get that much money after the first time selling. Anyway **Well Done!**
Wow. This is an enormous game for just 48 hours. Nice work. I'm going to echo the comments above about the interface stuff, but really impressive job overall.
Really cool game and nice way to apply the theme. I got a weird problem where I bought a second ship and none of them worked anymore.
Had a lot of fun with this! Though after a couple times selling off my fish, it seemed like my boat stopped pulling up fish at all, even sailing to new areas. Might be my doing something wrong though.
Like the idea, not enough strategic / management games here. Had a bad bug though (second ship got stuck in the harbor on purchase and would not move).
Awesome idea and art(these low-poly-s look beautiful), but the game needs a little bit more polishing.
For a compo entry it is really nice! The message bug (feature :wink:) makes it a little bit hard to see when you are out of food or coal. But I really like the gameplay. It's polished and feels good. And the graphics are nice! Well done.
great job for building this kind of game for the compo, complete with music and everything!
VEry interesting boat/fishing management game. The controls are a bit quirky but once I figured them out I had some fun with it. This is one of those if given some more polish, I might find myself playing for a few hours.
This looked like an incredible amount of work. Great job!
I think it have a lot of potential)
