Great PnC! Great pixelart! Enjoyed this funny little game ;)
Aww, I loved this! In a sea of fast-paced games (mine included!), it was nice to relax and play this one. I chuckled a few times at the dialogue. I hope the crab becomes a well-renown underwater pastry chef! ;)
But seriously, guys. Amazing job. Super seamless, polished, fun, cute, and easy to learn and play! Great game!
A really cute game! I love the story and the style. The pacing feels right and the dialogs are written well. Thanks for the great submission!
The visuals are nice and the music is very cute. Sadly, the actual gameplay is pretty boring. When your character says something like "this is becoming a chore", you know something is wrong. :P Bringing items to villagers is always tedious (and it gets worst when you can't speed through the dialogs) but the story nicely fits into the theme. The game crashed when I was talking to the treasure hunter, he was saying his lines twice and when he finished, everything froze.
How calming, love the artwork, very nice story-telling. I think something like this might work better for a younger audience, but agreed with @kokonaught that things could be sped up a little, and movement wasn't really that bad, but could've been smoother. It was cute.
I really like this game. I did run into a bug and had to restart when I didn't finish talking to the real estate agent before coming back with his hat. I enjoyed the relaxing gameplay, and I laughed several times at the dialog.
Really cute art and the song fits perfectly, but I will also have to agree that the gameplay could have more things than just being a collecting game. Overall its a really cute game :3
I agree with those above here, nicely written, works well, great art, funny humor! I would have liked to have control over the dialog though, as it went pretty slow for my tastes.
It's very good. Very cute game. I like quest games. Rate you high.
Very relaxing gameplay. Good ol puzzle type game for solving problems. Peaceful music that fits with the game. Good sprites. Though, I wished it was a bit longer, it is the quality that I care about more. Thank you.
graphics are really nice and the controls are pretty fluid. An option to click through text would be appreciated since the text scrolls verrrrry slow.
The humour on this game is very good, I chuckled with those dialogues. The music is very soothing too, but the dialogues were breaking to me: some of them only appeared for like 1 second and I couldn't read, mainly with the turtle. It's nice seeing games that have a cool narrative here, though!
This is a really cute little story with some really delicious conversations ! It has a really calming effect, and I love the music.
Only had a few text displaying issues with overlapping sentences, but except from that, a really good moment. Well done !
Ha, what nostalgy! It makes me think of old gameboy games. I love it! The music is really nice, the dialogue is hilarious, and it's a nice change from all the other games. I just have two remarks: an option to make the dialogue go faster would be nice, and at the end, since I didn't do everything in the order I was supposed to, I had bits and pieces of dialog with two or three different characters all over the place.
I wish there'd be more :)
Really enjoyed the story and the mood! I didn't see I could turn off the map for a while though so I missed some dialog. Nice work though!
"Earlier today nobody wanted it and now you do!" that's hilarious! That was a really sweet game, thank you!
Very cute, well written, and self contained. Great stuff.
Interesting to see a narrative take on the theme! Everything sets the calming mood really nicely. It's definitely not my genre of gameplay, but the story was nice and the fetch quest nature wasn't difficult enough to be tedious. Fun little experience :)
nice game, nice gfx. a little slow at times and the game hang once i found the treasure map.
Nice game, however this game has a huge problem though. Despite the jokes in the game, the TITLE of the game isn't "A TAIL OF FISH!!" MADNESS.
Really cute and relaxing game!
This was absolutely adorable! The game crashed when I got the map unfortunately :(
Super cute!
That's a really cute game ! Totally love the positive mood, sweet graphics and the narration was very funny !
Congratulations !
