This was a really nice take on the theme guys, was difficult to master, but I had a lot of fun trying. Really good job and worthwhile playing for anyone else reading this!

Sadly i cant run the game. "ucrtbased.dll not found". You can tell me when you've fixed this, so i can play and rate your game. Cheers.

Hey! I got the following error while trying to start the game. Possibly a missing/misplaced file?

Coolest shark animation! They really look spooky. Game play is also fun, but I would like to see some sort of multi deck fishing ship, or a bridge instead of red bars.

@articulated9 I've included the missing file and reuploaded (you can just download again). I think I know what the underlying issue is and hopefully I can fix it. Thanks for letting me know.

Smooth animations, good looking graphics overall. Music was nice, but I missed some sound effects. Good combination of fishing and platforming, well done!

@stephen321 Sorted! Working now :smiley:

Decent entry! I especially liked the sprites and the animation was very smooth. The two themes were present and worked well also.

Nice one! :smile:

Hey @awesomealliterationalliance, thank you and other people for letting me know. Everything should be working now!

Although it's a bit frustrating it is a nice entry. The character animation is very funny. I just thought about sharknado when the giant shark attacks. It's hard to play but is very good, nice job :)

Fun to play! The animation is fluid and everything is responsive. Nice take on the theme. The shark mouths flapping had me cracking up haha good job all!

A very challenging game, but fun. Some of the fish spots last for absurdly short periods of time, meaning even if I'm already standing in the right spot I still can't get them. But other than that small frustration, I really enjoyed it. The animations are amusing and I had fun dodging sharks.

respect for not using Unity/Gamemaker/randomEngineOfChoice

OOOOOOh SFML!!! I love your game, I usually make my games in SFML as well! In this jam I made the one I have on this account as a joke, but you can check the one I made the first day in SFML (not my best creation, and dedicated not much time on it though) https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/christmas-tree, but maybe you can get smething interesting from the code if you are interested, and obv, we can share knowledges and expreiences if you want : D

Yeah, It's working now! Had a fun time playing the game, altough it is very hard. The spawnrate feels a little bit off and the music is a bit repetitive. Besides that, nice Animation and fun idea. Respect for not using an Engine. :)

Yea its working now. That shark animation is sweet. Next time you should include some sort of instructions. It took me a while to figure out I had to push the E button, and where I was supposed to cast. Great entry otherwise! Give ours a shot! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/infinite-typer

Nice game. I love the level of detail you did.

niterich 2018-05-09 03:17

My version of the game is super zoomed in and I don't know why. Any help?
