Good job! Cute art, simple music and simple rules work together very well. Plus I almost caught a fish!

Good job! Cute art, simple music and simple rules work together very well. Plus I almost caught a fish!
Fun game and love the art! I think the circle of different color from button prompt would be much easier for player.
Great game! Have fallen in love with your art even before starting the game and simplistic music design works perfectly here. I would love to see more what is in the game but I could not make much progress, unfortunately.
Wow those graphics are gorgeous !
I don't always understand why sometimes my keys aren't correct, but i'm liking the colors !
Simple but funny and challenging. Congratulations !
Really love the graphics! Also adding the boss is a really nice touch!
Fun game and awesome title
Amazing game. Really aesthetic to the eye. I would personally add a little more "range of error" Aside from that, great work!
Great game. Love the graphics and mood. I don't know the keyboard well enough.
It was a really funny game but the keys kept getting wrong. Beautiful graphics!!!
Wow. That title.
Looks really nice, the art style has a certain charm. Simple yet challenging mechanic.
Nice one.
Beautiful graphics and catchy gameplay, nice!
really interesting! really like the title and the art! its a bit odd tho that general clicking is only done with a mouse but then u have to use the keyboard to press letters- i feel like the "enter" or the "spacebar" would have been good as a way to start the game too- also maybe some explanation to how to play it
Great game and beautifully done.
Cool game. Though it feels like the point at which you can press the key is a bit too unforgiving at times
Great little game! Really liked the concept. Was impressed when things changed up from just fishing at first :-)
I found it a little tough to understand why i kept losing the first few games until i realised that i had to wait until the pulse was nearly finished. Having different levels of hit “Miss, perfect, good, etc.” might help communicate the necessity of perfect timing & help the player understand if they were successful or not.
I like the background music a lot, fits the aesthetic really nicely but i did find the hit & miss sound effects a little jarring at times.
Overall great work! :-)
beautifully executed))))
Love the art, and the colors are so vibrant! I like the idea of being a goose fishing in a boat, very cute and funny. I managed to catch a few fish.
That being said, I'd like to see maybe a scrolling bar or something horizontal for the timing. A shrinking circle is hard to judge, and I found more success pressing with what I felt was "late." Or maybe some other indicator, like how close I was? That might just be me though, so take that with a grain of salt. Also, I thought that button in the upper-left corner was a reset button, but I don't think it does anything.
Good job making a web game, and with libgdx too! I know it doesn't mean much, but I used to use it too, and as a fellow programmer, it's refreshing to see in a sea of Unity games.
Cute game. Took be a bit to get the hang of the timing. The concept's nice, but I think it would have been more intuitive if I were typing out actual words
This game is so cool! The artist deserves all the love! Never though typing could be combined with fishing in such a fun way!
Cute game! The art is simply outstanding! Amazing job there!
The actual game is pretty hard. I feel the margin of error could be higher. Or the presented buttons more bundled together so you don't have to double check if you hit the right key.
But all in all a great game that is just sooooo pleasing to the eye!
Hey, congratulations on the great job! As everyone else is saying, yes, the game is SO CUTE. I loved the art style and also the audio matches it pretty well. Loved the game over screen. Who cares, right? lol
The gameplay itself is repetitive, so after like 5 minutes I was done with the game. The octopus looks AMAZING.
If you have some spare time, please take a look at my entry at https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/last-stand
Art style was what caught my eye from the crowd. Nice work on that but gameplay felt hard and confusing at first. After few tries i understood what i needed to do but it got repetitve fast and to be honest it felt meaningless because of that. The game needs some progression system or competition with others to keep me playing. I think global highscores would do the trick.
Also restarting the game with space or enter button would make things lot smoother.
Felt atracted to the art! pretty fun game :D
