I love the idea but could not get very far, the controls felt very slow/laggy, maybe it was just my pc, the fish were a lot faster in the main menu, than in the actual game.
3492... I've had so much fun playing this!
I sufferred a lot, it is not that easy to control the school. And that silly fish... I get's hit by anything. Ridiculously enjoyable. And also shooting fish like a projectile is just completely satisfying.
To sum up, it's one of my favorites at the moment :D
Love the idea. very nice visuals.
The movement of the fish feels very natual & looks very good are maybe a bit slow to avoid some obstacles. The difficulty need a bit of balancing to be make it fully enjoyable.
All in all this is great work for jam game. :)
Awesome job making this in 48 hours! Super fun! Love the replay-ability of it! Really good fun also thanks for the tip on the 2 hits for the sharks! :D
Very impressive for a 48 hours game jam. I love the visuals and the animations. It is so satisfying to fire fishes at sharks!
Other than the fish school feeling a little slippery and the left click feeling a tad(pole) redundant, the game worked extremely well and I found it an enjoyable little timewaster.. Grabbing new fish was a little more difficult than it needed to be, so maybe tighten that up if you choose to develop it further.
Nice use of boids, good idea to use it for a game. Doesn't fit the theme very well in my opinion. We need lore for the black areas of death!
"Black Areas of Death", those are the souls of all the fish that have died , so technically when you run your fish into the wall their soul is being joined into the void....
lol, I don't really know I did not have time to polish that, I was going to add sea-weed, coral, and crabs walking around, but I had no time, the whole void idea seems very intresting tho, as for the theme all the fish are joined together (in a school), and all the other fish join your school.
This game is actually a complete mini-game. I got 3258 and really like the physics. Hardness is also well-controlled. Great work!
NIce Game And Nice concept! I would have appreciated though if you increased the friction.
Such an awesome merger of many cool ideas! What a game! I love how your "health" is just how many fish you have, like your health is also your ammo is also your hurtbox, so cool. I also loved the music and the momentum of clicking and watching them all shoot around. I really hope you continue to develop this game and I have some suggestions. 1) please make the tutorial skippable. this game is really addicting and even on my 3rd or 4th playthrough i was already like why do i have to sit through these 10sec of windup at the beginning of each run? 2) maybe make a starter level that moves a bit slower? i never got that far and only hit something with a bullet fish successfully one time. (i played maybe 12 runs). Awesome game!
wow, thanks for playing and the feedback, due to lack of testing toward the end of the jam, I had to fix a few bugs and could not properly balance the game, so its' difficulty curve becomes really difficult. your suggestion to split the level levels great.
Super hectic and crazy-fun game! I loved the artstyle and the music. The controls feel really good and the sharks are s c a r y (which is a good thing I think).
Great job and good luck!!
Pleasing, soothing but at the same time challenging game. The movement of the fish should follow the mouse instead of being directed to a spot (that will help with the game flow I think). Very cute art and neat mechanics, I think you can expand upon this easily by adding more helpers (a durable herring for example) . Other than that the game was clear and easy to play, thanks for that!
thank you for the feedback.
mechanics are so fluent and funny. Great work !
VERY NICE! Nice idea for the theme. Looking forward to seeing future developments on this
Very original theme answer, a bit hard but very very nice!
Only thing is I would have linked fish to me more reactive and more grouped to not crash them into walls when changing direction, great job for everything else!

Wow. Brutal, but very fun!
Very satisfying to collect more fish, and very devastating to lose them all. All my fish died, all of them.
This is definitely one of the better submissions. Simple, pleasing to look at and quite original. Although fish could move a bit faster.
