Very great game! I'm surprised you we're able to add so much content in such little time. Only issue I had was with wonky hitboxes (not sure why I was getting hit sometimes, other times I definitely should have been hit but wasn't). Other than that, it's truly an amazing game :)

Great concept. I love the cute cartoon art style. The first level felt slow and boring, but that improved considerably after a few levels. The variety of meaningful upgrades drew me in, and I was excited to see what goofy monster would await me in the next phase. Also, super thankful for that vampire rod. Music seemed quieter than necessary, so it was hard to hear and comment on. Mildly disappointed that the creepy face guy is worth $0 at the shop. Also, that poor mouse, what has the shop-keeper done? Is that why he's wanted? I'm missing closure on the lore! :D Thanks for sharing this game.
The game is very cool. The art looks really nice, and you managed to do so much in such a short time. Keep it up :D
Great game! Fun take on the theme and really fun artistic theme as well! Love the beach vibes and a really creative take on a bullet hell as well! Great job!
Such an interesting idea! Very cool game I liked it a lot, and also that must be the most cool looking dash I've ever seen!
hope you can rate our game as well :D https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-6/rate/1177206 <3
While it's not very chaotic in the literal sense it's a very well done bullet hell mixed with a hilarious theme - fishing.
Very well balanced with a nice gradual difficulty curve and plenty of content for being just a simple game jam game.
Well done, my favorite so far!
If you have another person and a controller available to plugin please check out my game!
I LOVE the mechanic where the player has to choose whether to eat or sell their catches. It brings a bit of strategy in an otherwise straightforward system. I felt that the hook attack was a bit useless, so I just wacked the fish until they died. It was honestly pretty satisfying... xD
Got hooked haha... The gameplay is quite nicely balanced, well done
I actually had so much fun playing this. The items you can buy are also really nice so good job! :D
