Nice job! the art is amazing and the sound design is incredible. With more time I have no doubt you would've put in some really cool upgrades and more variety to the gameplay. I really appreciated not having to start from the very beginning with each death
Awesome. This is great! Excellent work.
I never thought I could have this much fun fishing :) Thanks so much for sharing!
The art on this is insane! Great job on this, fish must fear you!!
Very nice game, I had fun playing it! The movement and shooting feel very smooth and the pixel art style is lovely. Well done!
Very cool! I loved the water effects and the line that followed. It felt great to swim with the slow drift down. Good job!
I AM THE GREAT FISHERMAN. NO FISH NOR MAN CAN BEST ME!
This was incredible fr!! The combat reminded me a lot of Enter the Gungeon - it was extremely well balanced and just the right amount of challenge. I also thought you made a great decision in having players restart from the current boss encounter as opposed to the beginning. The art was lovely, the juice was there, and you gave us a hilarious ending - thank you for creating this (alone??!) :)
thanks for playing and im glad you liked it! it was heavily inspired by etg but I figured it would've been way too hard for most people to beat the game in one try. and yeah solo dev :)
Great game, subtly hilarious. I enjoyed all the boss attack patterns
What a lovely game! I really like the atmosphere. The pixel art looks amazing, and I found it funny to have calming music while getting shot by a fishs. The only criticism I have is that the story moves way too fast, making it hard to read.
What a nice little game, I like the minimalistic art style. The fish attack patterns are at first overwhelming, but after a while you can see it and beat one, just to find out there's alway a bigger fish.
Good Job!
