Hahhah, I love those graphics and sound effects because they are so goofy. Nice game concept, also.

Hahhah, I love those graphics and sound effects because they are so goofy. Nice game concept, also.
These fish are so ridiculous, I am in awe of these water creatures! good idea of combine genres!
This is a really happy little game. The only small complain I have with this game is that it often hard to see what makes the game end.
@jk5000 Thanks for playing and feedback! Maybe you falled in the water or the timer went to zero.
Totally worth a broken monitor! Loved graphics and sound effect, nice game concept
Thanks for your work!
Adorable sfx and graphics!
The fishes won me over. Good game
Fun little game. The artwork is very charming. Quite funny as well -- the way the plane rotates (whose in the plane?)
In a fast-paced game like this, I sometimes get confused on which direction i'm rotating. Have you considered up and down arrows or w/s?
Fun game. Well done. :)
Good concept. Made by a lone ranger I suppose
Love the graphics!
Your fish are super cute, and the audio samples did fit the aesthetic well.
Love the fish with the big grin, haha. The silly plane fits with the way you steer. Wish the net fell a bit faster, it seems really hard to not hit the bombs.
Has a really cute aesthetic and effective gameplay. Really well done, especially for 12 hours. :)
You know, I gotta love a game that has DERP FISH and vocal sound effects. woohoo!

I didn't progress much further, mostly because the game sometimes restarts with a whole bunch of bombs in the water already rather than starting anew. Regardless, there is a nice charm to this game that really holds it together. The frantic plane flying, the art, the looping background music and the sound effects function as one cohesive package, so well done on that.
It was pretty interesting how only going into the water would kill the plane (based on the controls), yet you aren't able to fly offscreen (the sky is simply a contained boundary), which is something I would usually expect in these types of games. I wouldn't say it was a bad thing - there wasn't really an advantage to hanging out by the ceiling, and the time limit made sure that I wasn't just camping out in a single area for a long time. For an increased difficulty, it would have been interesting to see things pop out of the water that you might have to avoid, perhaps even as you fly directly over them. The bombs served as a good enough challenge, though it does get pretty dense as the game progresses, making it near impossible to even drop one without inevitably throwing your net onto a bomb.
Overall, I thought this game was ridiculously cute and I was without a doubt entertained. Very nice work! :fishing_pole_and_fish:
A really nice simple game. Loved the sound effects. The only change I would make is to allow the plane to wrap on the edges of the screen. Nice work.
I survived 35 seconds. This game is harder than it looks at first sight! As @Random-storykeeper said above, the player can stay on one edge of the screen and wait...(though I wouldn't recommend doing that, because of the timer) Maybe make the player rotate automatically when touching the edge or something? I enjoyed playing your game. Fun, with nice graphics and cool sounds :)
Hi @belga54, I'm one of the devs of Typing 'n Run, alongside Eduardo. Did you see someone else claiming to be the dev of our game? If so, would you mind sharing more info?
I'm asking you because you have commented on our entry. Here's the link:
https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/type-n-jump
Thanks!
@Richard-N-Silva No one mentioned they are the dev of your game, just that another dev made a game like yours, but its not the same. Its a compo entry, has a different story but the idea was the same, this is it! https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/type-to-win
@Belga54 Thanks for the information! And by the way, congratulations on your entry. Tha gameplay is smooth and athe sound effects are pleasant to hear. The fish with big teeths is my favourite one. Really well done, keep the good work!
Very cute game. Don't break your monitor though. Bugs can be frustrating sometimes but your poor monitor did nothing wrong :( Sometimes I feel the bombs spawned too much and the graphics need some work, but a good game for being done in 48 hours.
Cute graphics! I included it in my Ludum Dare 41 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOCRSij5jBI
The game is very fun. It's also very funny and I like the style of it. "Plane Fishing" is good enough that you should probably invest in some anger management classes. I'd hate it if I wouldn't be able to play your next jam game because you destroyed the gear necessary to make it:) Good job! Also, take it easy and take care.
Good job! Cool game!
I left my rating of your game, if you can leave your feedback in our game, Witch's Escape.
I hope you continue with the project.

Nice work! What I liked most was the graphics, those fish look so cute :)
Nice game! Fun and colourful graphics and interesting concept. I felt like the bombs spawned a bit too fast but the difficulty makes it challenging. Overall nice work!
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/260564114?t=01h58m40s It's pretty challenging. I think sometimes I started with 3 bombs and others with zero so there might be an issue with the ramping. I also don't like bombs spawning where the net has already been dropped. maybe you could omit the net x left and right bounds from the spawn area of bombs to help the player out.
This is so weird, but so cute! A plane? fishing? bombs? what? But also god it's adorable and I love everything you've done with the graphics, sound and atmosphere. and it's simple but funny to play. Congrats!
