Nice work! Graphics and sounds were really well done. Solid arcade experience :D

Wow I love the pixel art, and it was a very classic arcade experience I agree. Which was why I was bad at it 😆 Great work!

Hey cool game, loved the graphics and had fun playing it. Have one minor issue the boat was a little difficult to control at first because it was so fast i got used to it in the end, also for the first two tries i didn't realise you could move forward and backwards figured it out in the end though. Overall decent game, i enjoyed it.

Nice, an original game yet easy to grasp on how to play. Level difficulty seems well paced, each level makes you try-hard a bit more.

Cool! I can't seem to get past level 2 because the boat is too fast and the shooting is too slow. Will I get a power-up on the shooting? Hmm...if you have power-ups, I may come back to play. Very nice combo and I enjoyed it. I liked the music at first but then it got annoying. Either the music needs less repetition or I need to get better at this. Maybe both. :D

The boat is very fast! Some precision-mode would've made the game's controls a lot easier to manage. I got to level 4, but since that required more precision than the previous levels, I didn't manage to beat it. The sound effects were fine, just got a bit repetitive over time. The music was good though! Overall, a pretty decent shmup.

nice arcade feel to it, boat moved perhaps a little too fast, often missed fish because of it. Solid audio and nice graphics, good job.

Like a lot of other people here, I liked the arcade gameplay, but the boat was way too fast to make accurate shots. I like the the graphics and the music, but I don't think they gel well together. I think a happy country-ish chiptune track would have fit better with the arcadey action and graphics

Simple game, I enjoyed it. Made it to the congratulations screen (-: On my keyboard I couldn't hold the shoot button while also moving left/right and down at the same time...

This felt more like a pure arcade shmap than a combination of genres with some "peace and quiet, out fishing on the lake" elements 😉. However, well executed, nice gfx and sound, had fun playing it.
