I like the story of the game and the idea of an evil fish. The UI does not work I can't see it. The 2nd level is a bit excessive eating 25 fishermen. Maybe save every 5 idk. Otherwise I liked it!

Cursed, I love it.

Thanks

Bold focus on writing. Shocking turns of events. A striking color palette. Heart wrenching story. Truely something one must experience to understand.

really clever concept!

Pretty dark story with babies drowning. I got stuck on the second level where you have to eat the fishermen. The idea of a 'reverse fishing game' is interesting but mechanically it feels like other 'eat and grow bigger' games.

Submitted

This feels like a horror story a five year old would tell, and the artstyle really helps to sell that. The fishermen were a bit hard to do, maybe because you have to do 25 without fail, but overall a pretty solid game.

nice game overall.

Game of the year but my man these scooba divers are CHEATING.

Well, I didn't expect to find somewhat of a slow decent horror game in this jam, but here we are. Great game though! I unsure what to do during the second section at first, but I figured it out eventually.

Like this creepy and interesting style XD

but now I found your game from this game, so the karmic circle of games continues on

Loved the intro and the music! The screen scaling for the web app was a bit off but otherwise, the game was very creative.

I'm sharing my screen while playing these entries and me and my friends were chuckling at the MS paint intro and the goofy sound effects until I started to eat babies and the game took an insane turn. Really nailed the atmosphere, absolutely perfect horror entry. The fisherman part was challenging but otherwise so good.

Took me a while to get the idea, horror game but you are the horror. Quite good actually

The entire atmosphere is spot on.

However the actual gameplay is pretty awful and the game is quite broken.

You have to go out of your way to watch the intro cutscene as it auto starts with the game and the entire game is by default at like 200% zoom so you cant read anything, also game softlocks in what seems to be a cutscene after the fishermen part. dunno if the game is supposed to even end there

Also going around into the other submissions and leaving comments that is half a "go play my game" seems really shady, heck the part that does supposedly give feedback doesn't even seem to match the games you are commenting on, almost as if you didn't even play those games and the comments are just advertising for this

I didn't know the potential of paint till this day.

Never before has eating a child been so satisfying not really sure how it fits into the theme

I loved the art.
