Turning was somewhat disorientating with how the water looks. Some sort of sound to go with it would have been nice. Side note -> the colors were hard to quickly distinguish (I am Red/Green colorblind) - which left me to using the outlines to try to figure out what was ok/not ok to grab.

Looks very not finalized

@jason-kennedy What do you mean by colors? It is just black and white for me... Really hard / impossible to read the color overlays as a result.

Was the wrong version uploaded?

I Like the controls and the moddeling, but i think the game would feel much better with some sound. Maybe some motor sounds, splashing or something.

I swear dolphins and turtles just want to be netted!

I liked the graphics and the render of the sea is great. It could give to the game an very interesting mood with some sounds. The gameplay is may be a little too simple to be engaging.

Very nice graphics, very good water's rendering. As people said, the game will be better with some sounds.

Beautiful game.

Love the aesthetic (and the title). Unfortunately the jerkiness of the camera gets slightly in the way.

That was awsesome! I love the visual aesthetic, fantastic job on the water. And I really love the theme. What a great way to take the theme and make something topical and culturally relevant.

Pretty fun and unique concept. The net is hard to control in close quarters but that may be by design. It felt like I was trying to park an oversized trailer. Good luck!

I really liked the look of this game. And the theme. And that I was more skilled at fishing up stuff I was not supposed to fish up...very well made. I don't know how the game plays on a big screen but on my little laptop it was hard to get an overview and much plan the boating. That might in part explain my net score 0. Or I'm just evil that way and want to have all the turtles for myself. I think the game would have done really good with some sounds of the sea and music too. Really nice little game. And very good graphics and theme.

Simple looks yet very cool, water and boat sounds would be quite nice to have, but it is totally understandable in the jam context.

This game is beautiful and the gameplay is very cool and simple , it can be a very nice flash game if you improved it a bit !

But...i don't see how this game is related to the theme :(

Dude what's wrong with these turtles! They're so eager to get into my net i'm in the negative zone all the time :D It's a fun game and fits the theme! i like it. Though it needs some music to become perfect. All in all great entry.

Nice game, I like the art style - a little difficult to control though, and seems like you get a pretty big speed hit when you catch the wrong thing, which makes it quite hard!
