I think I hit a bug where I got stuck on the right side of the ocean and could not go leftwards anymore

@mrventures did you press Q to drink Mana potions ?

mrventures 2024-04-15 02:53

I liked the humor of this game but I had a hard time understanding what I was supposed to be doing. I also felt like the collection of mana was repetitive.

mrventures 2024-04-15 02:54

Oh I didn't I guess that I ran out of mana, I wish maybe it had an indicator I thought it was a bug

Hi! Amazing game, I could sink hours in this, art is cool and progression feels nice. Thanks

Nice music and art on the main menu. I guess someone was hoping for a particular theme to come up :P

Interesting game, really unique mechanics. I would never gone for the fishing route. I like the look of the characters too. It was fun seeing all the fish and booze...khm mana jumping around

I had some trouble understanding at first, but had fun once I understood! Good job!! ♥

Cool game, art style makes me smile. It got a bit repetitive to have to drink mana all the time, I wish there was automatic or that it wouldn't run out as fast. I didn't understand what to do outside of gathering fish, gold, and mana, do I have to just keep going right?

In any case good job on submitting for the compo!

@nazorus thanks for the comment. For the 1st level collect more then 100 bottles And go to the farest right to drop them And finish the level

haha I died from mana starving! I liked the art style and how things are thrown in the air, I was not expecting that the first time! Great compo entry!

Love the cartoonish style of the art! The shop signs remind me of the lettering in pizza tower haha.

Took a while to realize to aim for the given percentage, not 100%. I think. After dropping due to lack of mana a couple of times, I finally was able to figure out how to be sustainable. Interesting game. Good work!

Nicely done! Very interesting and unique mechanic, really good adherence to the theme. I had my kid play, too--here are their comments: "Pretty good overall. Hard to get the point of the game. Are you supposed to go over the lake or are you supposed to be fishing?"

Might need a bit more explaining about the fishing system in general and how you can lose but other than that I enjoyed the humorous art style and the simplicity of the game:)

I like the main idea of the game, nice conception!

Nice fishing game, took me a while to notice that moving takes mana. It's hard to not die. I guess you can camp the starting area for a while? I enjoyed the game regardless. Would be great if there was music in the game part too, main theme was very nice!
