the concept is classic and you don't feel really involved gameplay-wise, I wish there was more to do than left clicking each a few seconds. The 2d art is gorgeous though, considering the jam creation conditions. Good job overall!
I really like the art, animation, and music. Although, it's not clear which fish to catch - good job otherwise.
We think that realising of what is the correct fish is part of the game, and tried to make it more or less evident. However, you are not the first player to point that out, so we may rework it after the voting. The most important hint is the music, that changes when just before the fish is going to appear. Also the marlin size and effects are different :D
Thank you very much for you feedback!
Love the art
Fun! There's been so many fishing games / fishing minigames out there and I like how this one puts a whole new spin on how to catch rarer fish via skill and patience. Plus, great art!
Great art and style.
