How does your game fit the theme?
This games reverses the role of the player as a fish instead of a human. This also reverses the direction of the fishing mechanic to go upward instead of down.

I really like the idea here, but I feel like it's held back by its controls. The camera controls feel off, in part because of the lack of vertical control. I don't understand why I need to take out and put away the fishing rod to move around when it could just always be out and lets you walk around whenever it's reeled in. I also struggled with the inventory system, and felt it could have been implemented smoother. I also found the game rather buggy. Trying to place the humans in the vivariums seems to be pretty clunky, and I manged to wipe my inventory doing. I also managed to cast downwards and soft-lock the game somehow. I love the concept of the game, but I wish it was a smoother experience to play.
Love the art!
Funny concept. Made me laugh.
I don't know what happened, but I think I soft-locked the game twice. I think that the camera should rotate up and down as well, then it makes it easier to aim the fishing lure. Maybe a first person view would help with fishing as well!!
I loved the main character ! The overall aesthetic was good
cool idea! One can see you spent a lot of time on level design. I like it :)
Fun idea and good presentation. The camera and controls felt stiff, but I was able to get the hang of it after a while.
Game did not load
Fun idea! Not a fan of the camera movement. Love the game world!
Crazy fun idea! Congrats
Looks beautiful
Fun idea 😂
What a cool concept! Really well done~
Best execution of this idea I've seen
really nice idea
really nice idea
Hilarious take on the theme.
think the camera perspective and controls makes it too hard to aim the lure. This could've worked with a normal 3rd person cam, Or perhaps a 2D version of this would've worked better.
Even though it's using existing assets, I think you did a pretty good job using them together. Good job!
Yeah I was playing on the idea of isometric cam locks going up. "a reverse iso" sort of thing but in the end it just reads like a hard to use camera. So would have to work on either being clearer about forcing a new perspective or just freelook the camera.
Wooww, this is one of the most beautiful games I've tested from the jam, and since I'm already a fan of the seabed, I really loved it.
The game is fun but very buggy. Also this is the best humaning spot
lol that's an awesome bug! I knew there would be all kinds of clipping areas and stuff like that in 48 hours. But loovvvee the screenshot!
I like the concept! Definitely fits the role reversal theme. You also did a great job with the overall design of the envrionment, it looks pretty nice. Would always be nice to have a little more complexity in terms of gameplay, but pretty solid!
