Simple and surprisingly fun.
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Good graphics and gameplay
Thank you
Otherwise quite fun, but it feels quite slow... the scroll speed, screen transitions, horizontal movement are all quite slow. Music is great, and I love the variety of fish in the game.
Thanks for your feedback. The screen transitions are slow because I wanted them to be smooth, and not just a fish appearing out of nowhere. Horizontal movement seemed right for me this way, because fish can't swim backwards nor can they swim that fast against current, but maybe I can make it a bit more unrealistic for better gameplay. And the scroll speed increases over time, I wanted it to be slow at first so that it wouldn't be that hard in the beginning. I wanted an option to select difficulty, and that includes game speed of course, but I didn't have enough time to implement it. If you have any other advice on how I can improve the game, I'd love to hear it!
Very simple and funny. I liked art.
i like simplicity!
simple-and-good
Funny game and well simple art!!!!
Thank you :)
Honestly a really fun game. Only major complaint is you get killed by simply touching a bigger fish, even if it's their tail. Other than that, it was fun and I can see myself playing it for hours.
Thanks a lot for your feedback! I'm glad you liked my game.
I was giving the hitboxes a lot of thought, I've tested the game both with small hitboxes that cover only the heads of the fish, and with large full-body hitboxes, and the larger ones suited me better as I was able to see exactly when would I die, so I decided to go with the large ones. But I can imagine that you may expect smaller hitboxes, so if I get more feedback like that, I'll change it in the future.
