Really funny game, what a pitty it doesn't contain sounds :/ But great anyway =D

Good job! Was fun trying to hit the small red fish. I didn't enjoy constantly spearing the sharks so i just kept going for the fish till I lost.

Yaarrr! This sharks are going to be the end of me! So many sharks at once, I was a bit stressed xD Fun game! I love the simple graphics and the gameplay is quite original, when I read the title I expected the boat to move slower the more fish you got, didn't expect SHAAAARK!! Good job :3

I think we have a shark problem! https://imgur.com/3lW1wYL

This was a fun game, liked the art style. If I could have changed one thing I would have made it so I could retrieve the fishing line with another click (or right click) instead of waiting for it to go all the way out and then come back, then I could have felt like a fishing ninja with either a mulit-hit or quick jabs depending on my choice. FORTUNATELY this was not an issue with the sharks, smart call making the line auto-retrieve as soon as it hits a shark.

Nice entry!

Nice entry, I just kept trying to line up my shots so I could hit multiple fish at the same time :D I liked the art style, simplistic but really suited the game, felt like a nice arcade game

I enjoyed the game :) It was really fun and mechanics (weapons) feel very good.

It is fine little fishing game. Some music or sound effects would have been great. I am not sure what damage my both, but I believe it was the shakes. Over a fine LD game.

Nice artwork! I Really love that shark sprite. They look so happy i felt guilty killing them.

Fun little game. I like how the boat accually gets smaller. Looks really cool! The controls are a little sluggish. Changing between moving and attacking as some sort of timer. Afer I moved, I have to wait to attack. That makes a little frustrating to play. Other than that, its fun :)

Thank you guys :) really appreciate it, :D

Those sharks... gaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhgetoutofhereiwanttofish :grin:

Cool idea. The controls are easy and the difficult ramp seems fine. Given a little polish this could actually be a great casual game - maybe a mobile game.

sinci1 2017-12-05 17:34

Thank you guys, also to hdtv, i might do that, if i have enough time

Simple but fair. I ended up hitting a sort of equilibrium, floundering at around 40 with no way to win or lose. I'm not sure what settings I had the sharks on. Maybe I had it set too easy?

Good game, I enjoyed it a lot! A good improvement would be adding sound :)

Nice little game :) I wonder why the sharks were so attracted to me :D
