Notes (optional)
I made this game without thinking too much about whether the protagonist of the game was the fish or the player themself.
I hope that the fish has enough protagonism to be in the Jam.
Pre-existing assets (optional*)
Beyond some system/generic scripts, maybe one sound effect that I used in one of my previous Jams.

Loved the alien twist, made the game a billion times better.
I really like the retro color palette! I cried a little bit inside when I accidentally killed my fishy with a laser. He will never be forgotten... Great job!
You made this in a week? Great job. I thought somebody else also could have made an Insaniquarium-inspired game and here I found you! Now mine looks terrible finding yours haha. My game is more focused on the feeding and raising mishmashes of fish, while yours is well balanced overall. Truthfully, you have made a great game. Had fun playing it. My favourite one in this game jam.
I love the style and the gameplay i dont know why but it reminds me of old Sega games, one of my favorites indeed
Hey thanks for checking the game ^^
Maybe it reminds you of that because the color palette is based on the Mega Drive/Genesis.
Very cool game!
Amazing, love the juxtaposition between pet sim and battle lol. And they are intimately linked in gameplay. Very well done, well polished, simple to understand. Good art,music,sfx... Fishy for sure. Honestly I don't even know any way I can improve on the formula. Great work!
Actually the only thing I can think on replaying it would be a more crescendo ending. It just kinda ends. Maybe it would be that a boss shows up.
Very fun and polished game! Managed to complete it :)
cool game. Very action packed and upgrading the aquarium felt good
this game is awesome and super polished, good job dude, and insaniquarium like
I loved your game. You have come up with a very original and fun concept. I enjoyed playing your game!
It's beautiful and the music is very nice. Impressed by your work!
Damn loved this game and had a tone of fun. The algue was a bit hard to clean and i had trouble knowing if i was clicking it properly. The enemies were def the best part. Wouldve liked to have the fish health bar on the fish cause it kinda was a surprise when da fish died (or have it turn red when on low health). All around, i loved it :)
This game was just great all around. I'm very impessed you put this together in a week with this level of polish. Awesome job! It was enjoyable :)
Great game. Died on danger 31 and it was pretty hard to counter those aliens.
Super fun! All aquarium style games should consider implementing attack style events. Great total package.
Awesome pixel art graphics and I like the music and sound effects. Polished and fun game!
Good game!
What everyone else said, great game!
touch screen goes crazy on this game
Oh my.. this game is definitely a 5 star for fun! I love the variety of gameplay there is even though there is only one control: the mouse. The music is also great and adds to the game a lot! It's almost like I get jumpscared by the sudden epic music and a big alien shows up. I love the rogue like aspec of it, seems like there are so many special upgrades!
well put together game and I like the menus in the beginning that tell you how to play.
