I couldn't catch anything but the atmosphere was amazing
@darriasart to catch them you need to wait in until you get a bite and then spam left click. The bigger the fish the more clicks it will take. You can also pull up with the mouse to reduce the number of clicks needed.
The fishing rod visuals and physics(?) are soo incredible! Very impressive graphics. A nice calm little world to live in for a moment.
Love It! You are a Wizard! Great graphics, Great Music. Really relaxing. How did you make this in 2 days??
Very satisfying to play and to look at. I found the glare to be a little too much at certain angles, that's my only complaint. It truly is just fishing.
Normally I hate motion blur but it works really well here, congrats on a great project.
Realy good and relaxing game) I like it)
The game looks absolutely amazing! It's really calming and peaceful. It was very quite easy to get the timer to go up in survival mode thought. One thing i'd like to see added is a counter to see how many fish you caught. Overall, great game, I enjoyed it a lot! :D
Took me a bit to figure out how to fish too. I eventually was able to catch 2-3 in survival mode. The look and feel of the scene is gorgeous. I wish there was just a bit more to do, like maybe if some fish gave you a fight for more like 10 seconds, and you had to play with the rod too. Either way, thank you for the lovely view and mood.
Very relaxing, despite the burning plane. Once I figured out how to catch the fish it was fun. With some line physics and some more AI on the fish this could be quite nice. Excelent graphics and shader work, short music loops are usually irritating but worked in this case.
Congratulations on finishing the game in 48 hours.
How can this be made in just 2 days!?!?!? HOW?!?!? The atmosphere is awesome and the controls just feel amazing and the music and sound effects is just awesome
The mood, graphics and sound are really good. The fishing itself is also nice. However, the gameplay is repetitive. I caught so many fish I could just keep going and never lose. There should be more variety in gameplay and increasing difficulty. Good job!
Sound and graphics are amazing! Survival should really have more time, because aiming is hard and catching then is easy, in 11 seconds you should really shoot it with first try get in time.
It's such a pretty game. It's so relaxing to fish.
Great work! Lovely graphics and wonderful relaxing mood.
Pretty cool and peaceful game! I was actually able to catch some fish and played survival mode a lot. Maybe 20 seconds are a bit less for the first few catches, but you can play many rounds after another. Nice and fun experience overall! Good job!
A relaxing game about the aftermath of what looks like a very serious and frightening airplane crash- Strong points are the artstyle, the big in-your face flopping fish models, and idk, the whole v~i~b~e of it all with the music and pacing of the animations and everything. Great stuff here.
Reminded me very much of the animal crossing fishing system! I loved the ambiance, especially the sound of the waves. I also think that the game was balanced. If I tried to do my best, a game would last for about 2 min before the timer ran out, which seems reasonable. Perhaps it was a little annoying with the waves that covered the fishes, but that maybe is the point of them? Anyways, good job!
Cute :smile:
Congratulations on the entry :thumbsup_tone1: :purple_heart: :dart: :frog:
When i saw this in the games list i honestly internally screamed "FISHING GAME!!" I love fishing especially in video games. I really enjoy what you have made here it's so charming! I like the game loop and love the chill atmosphere! Only thing that could be a little less is the bloom (so bright!) Other than that awesome job!
The fact that you banged this out in during a jam is very impressive! Chill af but with a kind of weird melancholy because of the fiery crash in the medium distance lmao. I like it.
The Optic and your mood is amazing, i got instant holiday vibes <3
Great fish animations and amazing atmosphere. Well done!
Great atmosphere and graphic, the soundtrack is really fitting and relaxing, great submission, played for about 15 minutes, and had the chance to virtually escape from my quarantine :D
Beautiful, Just beautiful! However, it needs a more difficult mechanic in survival than just spamming left click as even the largest fish weren't difficult and there was no real threat of losing.
Great game!
Very nice visuals (though a bit too much bloom for my taste). Loved the wiggly fishing rod. Got a lot of fishes, too! This will hopefully be a nice meal, after the boring airplane food
lol I suck, caught a couple tho
The setting and the graphics are incredible! Even the fish are animated, very cool stuff. The gameplay is a bit clunky, throwing the line seemed very random to me. Survival was also very hard, way too little time. But I do think the great ambiance of the peaceful mode makes up for it all :)
Amazing graphics! Seems like a really good spot to catch a fish, too, as there are almost 30 of them by the time the timer ran out :-) Good work!
Super relaxing and well-made! Loved the aesthetics and the graphics and I just could not get enough of the fishing rod physics (I get joy from the smallest things)! Great job!
I ended up playing the peaceful mode, it was rather relaxing!
The sound queues are on point and let me know what's happening pretty well. The gameplay was pretty relaxing as well. However the fishing rod felt a bit awkward and stiff to control at times :(.
The white stuff in the ocean felt a bit weird. It seemed to obstruct my view of where the fish were for no interesting reason thus it felt a bit out of a place.
Other than that, pretty neat!
Great game! Quite relaxing to fish like this. Btw, any bass here? :rofl:
Wow great work. Love the music and the post processing. In that short time you did a great job. I'm impressed
This was a really relaxing experience :) Staying alive in survival mode seems quite hard. Maybe I do not get the biting mechanig completely. Awesome work!
One of my favorite games so far. Highly relaxing, and a setting I haven't seen yet! I'm glad you added a timer-less mode. I can see myself coming back to this again after the jam!
You sure don't have very long to live if you aren't devouring fish! I dig the art and the environmental storytelling of the crashed plane. It was a bit hard to get the fish to bite, since they don't seem to be attracted to the hook - but maybe that's part of the challenge.
Wow amazing compo game ! That's perfect i don't like fishing but i fact i love this game !
Really relaxing and a nice mood. A bit hard I would say usually I loose after around 35 seconds. Gnerally a bit boring to be honest, but maybe Im just the wrong target for a game like this. But very impressing for a solo project.
The atmosphere was great, gameplay was pretty simple but it's still amazing for a compo game. Congrats ! I'd tone down the bloom a bit, maybe, and add a bit more feedback overall !
I really liked the aesthetic of this game, very calm and dreamy. The music did also fit well with the game. It was well polished! But maybe Add more difficulty to the survival mode.
Eventhough the scene tells something horrible might have just happened this was really calming and relaxing... didn“t catch a lot at first, but I got better with each attempt and got really good time :) Thanks!
I made it over a minute and a half, very nice atmosphere and artwork
It's nice to have a relaxing game with a great atmosphere after a day of work. I didn't read the "how to play", but I was able to catch some fish after several attempts. The system to throw the fishing hook feels weird at first, but after some time, I think it was perfect for the lazy gamer that I am.
very polished look - good job! Like other comments it took me some time to figure it out but it made sense once I got it.
Love the looks and the atmosphere. Also, plus points for making a fishing game :)
Challenging fishing game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 46 compilation video series, if you want to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/dDzogWGpxXA
I like the idea very much that my airplane crushed and now I'm sitting here. Thanks for the peaceful mode. It's a very relaxing game an the survivale mode stress me.
Sooooo relaxing. Thank you very much for this calming experience! :slight_smile: The simple mechanics, soothing audio and clean graphics suit this game perfectly.
great game. music is so relaxing.. and the graphics are stunning. the 'two mode' is a great idea, some people (especially me) just want to enjoy the game without the ticking time :smile: thanks to you for peaceful mode. could see your hard work through the game and good job for it :thumbsup:
I really like your game. Graphics and mood are great. I had some trouble to catch the fish, I think it could me more easier at the beginning. But overall is a really good game. Good job!
Wonderful mood on this :) the rapid clicking somewhat impacts the calm nature of the atmosphere, but peaceful mode was much appreciated. Nice work!
Very calm atmosphere, loved the soothing feeling of it. Hook physics and animations are awesome. Loved it overall.
