Really cool, I could see myself playing this for quite a while.

Reminds me of Ridiculous Fishing, very enjoyable.

Beautiful game! Only feedback I can think of: Using a more cartoony font would improved the completeness. Very well done :clap: :clap:

Hey this was fun ! Thank you for making this. I love the artstyle, it is very lighthearted and puts people in a good mood. It feels like playing a classic, well done !

Love a good incremental game. The wave effect is nice and really gets the most out of the simplistic graphics. It feels like it is missing that satisfying power spike that some incremental games have, where you can turn your brain off and let the upgrades take over. Not every incremental needs this, but I feel like it would suit this game well.

This is really nice! I love how many different upgrades there are (I went for maxed out extra harpoons first, that was pretty fun. I wish there was maybe some music, but visuals are really nice, I liked this quite a bit.

It's a DLC of dave the diver :) it's fun to play and it fits perfectly with the theme, well done to you

Really fun, I caught the special fish :sunglasses:

Felt a lot like the kind of flash game I used to waste ages on as a kid with the incremental upgrades, and agree that it has a similar vibe to ridiculous fishing.

There are some really cool bits of design here, I love how satisfying it is shooting back up to the surface and it's very cool that you can sit "too deep" for a little while slowly taking damage in return for catching better fish.

I really enjoyed this, only feedback is that music could make the atmosphere even better!

im not gona lie that sun at the bottom scared the shit out of me. i love these games where you have to grind out currency for upgrades.

Hey this is really cool and cozy. In terms of your goal - delivering a fun game, definitely nailed it! Core loop is intuitive and each session is short that I always wanted to play more. Harpooning multiple fish in one shot is very satisfying. You played my game, and as a sucker for roguelikes I would love to see more mods on the harpoon or even new kinds of 'weapons'. Well done!

The controls feels absolutely amazing, the art is simple but super effective!

Really cool, simple idea well executed! Love the wave effects and the graphics were simple but felt comfy. Some calm music would really fit this game. One suggestion would be to increase the font size of the upgrade screen, it was difficult to read at my resolution.

Similar idea to our game but such a different implementation! Really fun and I love the upgrading - the sideways movement is definitely necessary - I'd also like an upgrade that allows you to slow down and maybe even move upwards slowly. If it told you how much fish were worth it'd be cool too, but not sure how you'd do that without ruining the look of the game

Very nice game! Wish I could continue after finishing it to get all the upgrades, it's very addictive!

Good job!
