Neat concept.  I found that the hooks that come out of nowhere and grab your fish was a little frustrating, and it felt like the best strategy a lot of the time, was to wait instead of go around the hook.  So maybe an incentive like a net that's gradually moving behind you, to keep you constantly moving.  All in all, cool visuals and addictive gameplay loop.

Loved the visuals and gameplay! Gotta find that fisherman that keeps 360 no scoping me with their hook 💀

I lost Timmy so many times I should be banned from parenthood

Nice game, really nice art, great feel to it overall, though I am bad at not being sniped by fishing poles when I'm not casually losing my kids to child protective services

Thanks to these many fish (and jellyfishes) who sacrifices so I can reach home with my children (1) ! They will be remembered !

Having your own fishy children to worry about was a clever idea, great job with the art too!

Really gorgeous presentation to a simple concept well executed. For some reason, I was thinking at the beginning that the fish would join me and I would have to control a chaotic shoal... maybe an idea?

Graphics are stunning, and the game is a very creative take on the theme! I like the idea of not just avoiding the hooks yourself, but trying to protect your children. I wish there was some way to wriggle free of the hook if you are caught - might remove a bit of frustration when you instantly die by clipping a hook. Overall, great job!

The art is really good, though it's kind of repetitive.

The aesthetic is amazing and the game runs smoothly - 5 stars! I had a lot of fun and feel proud that I managed to clear the first level with all my children.
