Cool Game, Nice Art!
Wow this is a HARD game for me. My fish is so sloooow but I like the idea as it fits the theme very well. It's a bit like a vertical flappy bird!
This game is very hard. I don't think I can make it to 50 meters. I rly like the beginning though, where the fish jumps out of the boat and escapes. It is very funny. I also like the explosion that happens on death which is cool.
Really nice game, I really liked the music! Tough, this is way too difficult! I couldn't even pass 20m...
I can't move fast enough to avoid any fish! Neither with AD nor with the arrow keys! It does move a bit out of the way but very slowly and not very far ( I can't reach the wall for ex. )
is that a bug or intentionnal ?
Art is nice though. I'll come back if you @ me.
Congratulations for the submission of your first game jam! This game is extremely hard for me so that 37 meters is my best result. I think it need a feature that allow
My record is 25m, this game is pretty hard! It would be great if there was a button to restart immediately, the starting animation is fun to watch at the first time but it just takes too long to watch every time to keep on trying... :D
Very hard! Also would have liked to be able to restart the game immediately after dying, without going to the menu. The start menu was a bit bugged for me, space didn't start the game without clicking something else (not sure what, rolled over the whole keyboard) first. Solid concept though and nice artwork!
Great adaptation of the theme, very nice art style. The runaway fish from the intro is my favorite. Well done!
I wish I could get further down. The controls feel a bit slow, wasn't very clear if my input is registered. I really want to see the real game starting at 50 meters, but the nasty non-orange fishes dart in from the sides without much chance to avoid. :(
Nice game, but really hard for me too
As mentioned before the controlls are really slow. Does not feel like I have any control of the fish except of moving it right a (small) bit or left a (also small) bit.
There is a surprise over 50 meters ;)
@dhim I know it's a bit difficult. I'm kinda used to the controls since I played Ridiculous Fishing on Bluestacks Emulator (and the emulated controls were waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay worse than the original one). My PB on my game is like 73 or something like that, I suggest you to hold a direction for lots of time when encountering a bunch of fishes in order to keep a stable velocity and then slow down when getting past the obstacles
Nice music, nice art!
As stated by others, controls are indeed very slow and make it incredibly hard to react in time. I would love a way to restart quicker, without the animation. I went back to start menu every time, did I miss a way to restart faster?
Big congrats on your first game jam 💕
@welby @voxel-forest @jacudibu @noskro @pitivie @mrmedic @heidelbert @doot @iorena @justuspan by asking in the feed I decided to make another package on GameJolt with updates targeted to fix the game (separated from the ones made in the 72 hours of the Jam). Don't re-rate my game, if you can just please let me know if I somehow found "working" workarounds :)
yay, restart button and a bit more room to react! It makes the game a lot bette for me.
Good game! Having your fish naturally swim back to the center on it's own makes it feal a little bit more organic to me.
This is really difficult! I can't make it past around 30 or so.
Cool and simple game. I like that it is so fast paced. But I think too long starting animation for a such fast paced game. It is a hard game like others mention but i think this is a good feature. Controls might be more flexible but this is a ppersonal comment. Good job!!
One of my main complaints on this game is that it takes a while to start each run. Especially when you die instantly from hitting an enemy, i like to try to get back in quickly, and having to wait 10 seconds to have a fish jump out of a boat is a little momentum breaking. Its okay for the first run but subsequent runs should just let you back in quickly. Other than that this game is a nice challenge
Congratulations on your game, I know you have a lot of things to fix, but this is part of the process of a game jam, as you participate in more it will learn more and more to work with the established time and will have better and better results, keep studying and evolving that soon they will have good fruits of the work, if it is possible to give feedback on my game I will be grateful, a big hug.
