Play game

Fisherman's Curse's itch.io page

How does the game fit the theme?
You have to risk your life and get past Ancient God and his minions, to hopefully achieve peace.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All code was made from scratch, but i used my own combat and movement systems from my previous project. Everything was hand made, without use of generative AI.

How many people worked on the game?

I would have loved to rate the game but it's not allowing me, I'll still leave my review. The game is an interesting take on the vampire survivor genre, The visuals were really nice. The game itself felt too hard, as I wasn't doing much damage and all the collectable ended up mixed in the pile of enemies. Other than that, the game has potential.

Gives me Lovecraft vibes, the attack sound and effect feels very satisfying!

Nice little Vampire Survivors clone, I liked that some enemies were more aggressive! If you update the game maybe rework the balance a little, but I know it takes a lot of time to do and the current version is still very fun! Great job

Thank you for kind words mate! I already spent some time balancing everything, but is seems that wasn't enough. But I'll try again!

i really enjoyed as a fan of vampire survivors! art is also great. maybe gameplay could be more balanced and enemy movement could be more randomized

Fun gameplay, but at some point I had an FPS drop below 10, I was spinning in circles and there were a lot of enemies in one place.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback. Can you tell me on which version, PC or browser, the lags occurred?

Great surviors game, it is fun to play. One thing is the tiny green slime enemies have too much health, and there will be tons of this enemies after 2 minutes, and if they died at the same time, the game will be laggy and get stucked.

Developer

I think you are right. I definitely have to make slimes have hp for only one attack. Thanks for a nice feedback!

Nice game. A little critic: the little enemies should die in 1 hit and they hit pretty hard. Other than that the gameplay feels pretty nice.

Developer

Yep, you're right!

Cool survivors game, the falling anvils gotta be my favourite. I don't see the theme coming out much however still very fun to play 

Developer

Thanks for nice review! Falling anvils have a really satisfying animation, personally my favorite ability. But im actually "re-branding" my game so it looks more creepy and more "Lovecraftian". So, i don't really know, leave anvil as it is or redesign it.  I will play your game too as soon as im avaible!

Submitted(+1)

i mean as long as the new 'anvils' act like anvils, thats gonna be cool

I didn't make it to a boss - the web version does get a bit laggy as you suggest, but a nice simple survivors with a metagame around it

Developer

Thank you! The game was not designed to be played in browser, but we all know that if u cant play jam game in browser - only a few people will actually play it. I'll definitely try your game too, as soon as i can!
