The repetitiveness of the dialog choices on the interim screens where you receive new fish to care for is undesirable, but the memory matching is surprisingly fun, and I like the little splashes of humor. I was able to get to 16.
I love the dialogue it really entertaining. The art is my favorite part of the game this some of the best art i've seen in my life i love how it feels the way the colours blend the shapes its beautiful. Ill be looking back on this for inspiration in the future.
Cute game! You did a good job and I love the pixel art, they're some good feesh
I love this one! It's so stressful I ended up picking the same food/music for a lot of the choices. Ended up getting to 53. Love the creepy vibes actually reminds me of Annihilation the book/movie with the whole biological aspect. :D
The dialogue and descent into madness was really fun! Could have used some music near the end to really sell the cosmic horror. I got to 60 on my first run!! Anyway nice visuals, repetitive but honestly solid gameplay. I had fun.

I love this! The concept and the art are both great. I wish my memory were good enough to find out what happens next. Its a bit hard to remember what I imagined versus what I envisioned.

Really enjoyed the art. The memory matching can get a bit repetitive but the strange horror elements kept me playing to see how weird it would get.

Nice visuals and atmosphere. Liked how the place changed after time to more horror theme. Great job!

Quite a cute little game! It's a nice themed take on the memory game. It got pretty hard as it went on as you had to answer faster.

The atmosphere was excellent and I was so down to see how the story would unfurl, but my memory failed me :( I like how you could pick the same choices for multiple fish, but that could trip you up too if you're not paying attention.
big fan of this game, small and tight concept done well. great art and persistence too! and fun progression. giving little boosts to the global timer depending on how fast you make correct choices might be a fun lite mechanic addition
I provided around 112 times, and even when the loop stopped expanding I kept playing cause the sense of unease felt so real! Super tight and fun game, love the deadpan dialogue choice in between the memorization loop. Pixel art is also pleasing. Wow. I want more!!! Only downside is the generic looking buttons.

Provided till 47! The game is pretty interesting, I love the graphics in this game and the moment the beta came, I got a little spooked, and when the wall crashed, I was sold. The memory game is definitely awesome, perhaps it could have more variation with pictures too really amazing work!

Even more pixel art xD
I have fish and this game is totally realistic. They die with nothing. Very beautiful visually

very good game :) I liked to give everyone I could chicken nuggets.
Took me a while to understand what was going on. Interesting and simple concept. Graphics were great. For what you were going for, it seems to work.

Hi! I saw your recommendation and came to check your game as well. Its great! Pretty unique gameplay. The dialogue options could be more but I think its really good for a game jam. The art is really nice.

Started chill, and descended into a stressful horror game :D. The art was really well made and I liked the atmosphere a lot!

I guess I'm a fish sitter now ! I love these types of game because my memory isn't that great and it feels like a useful challenge for my brain haha. Thank you for your entry !

Visually very nice looking game. Also the gameplay is super fun, but at the end it becomes really stressful! (Not in a bad way though, enjoyed it thoroughly) Nice entry :)

nice graphics.
a fun entry! i was expecting just feeding fish but the weird stuff that started happening really got me into it. amazing one! if i were to change anything, i'd add some better font to it maybe (to the buttons) but it was nice and challenging :D a great one!
Very original entry, love it!

Nice little memory game with some surprisingly creepy undertones. I enjoyed it!

I really enjoyed this! Got to 137 :tada:
The sudden turn into eldritch emotion-feeding monsters was very nice. I appreciated how us/the intern just reacted the same as to everything else. It also made me wonder if there would be any more. For more evil difficulty maybe you could ask about e.g. "food for Goldie" and mix in answers to "music for Goldie".

Suprising one! Solid pixel art and sound effects. I really like that this game is based on really simple mechanism, making it pretty enjoyable. Also my appreciations for putting a little story line in it. Overall really solid entry.
cool graphycs, and nice idea! move on!

Cool idea for the game play. Basically making a memory game but with a clever disguise?
This was such a good game I really enjoyed playing it, the graphics were verry impressive and for a simple concept it was verry accilerating. Great job!
Clever idea and fun to play. It's great how the difficulty ratchets up as time goes on. Nice job on the text and on the sound effect of food dropping into water.
Last review for this LD. This was different. And I like it. It's probably something you can use to train your short term memory. Did I say I like it? Any way, what was I doing?
In shot: Good job!
