The fish was great at fishing! I thought it was funny that the fish could eat the other fish too

that is such a nice game!

i'm in love with the art :) the gameplay is so easy to catch (haha) and it is fun to play. even a bit relaxing in a way :D

i think it would be really fun to see more levels and opponents :) or even a battle with a friend on who will be able to catch more humans :)

Good work! This had a really nice arcade-esque feel to it, I had fun!

What a funny idea! I think it was really well executed entry, nice polish and fun little game loop. There's a lot of potential here, would love to see it fleshed out!

This is fun! It's great coming across other fishing games in the jam! I'd love to see a bit more depth/challenge as you progress, but you've built a pretty solid foundation here, which is impressive for just 48 hrs. Nice work!

Fun idea, and I love the art! The gameplay could be a bit more dynamic, though. Once you get the hang of it there’s not much challenge left, and I don’t think the game makes reeling in a fisherman quite as satisfying as it should. But while it’s a little underwhelming in that sense, I think it’s still pretty solid overall. Great effort!

This is so good!! Great idea, it is so well done. The game is gorgeous, and the art style fits well with the gameplay. Beautiful anims too.
The character cards that we see at the end of the fishermen that we drawn made me feel bad.. But not eneough to prevent me from playing again hehe. Amazing work!

So awesome. This game is so great. There is nothing I can complain about it. It is a little hard to understand the control for the first time but after that the game becomes so funny.

Interesting concept! The art is stunning and so is the mechanics to this game! Everything was well executed!

The art in this game is well made and I don't know how you implemented the fish pulling mechanic but it was smooth. The sfx were also spot on especially the crowd one in the menu. Good job!

Cool game! I love the art, it would be cool if you had to avoid other bigger fishes while pulling the fisher downwards. Also I really like the cards showing your victims, well done!

Could you rate my game? I would really appreciate it, thanks!

Lovely game! The art is wonderful and the fish is very satisfying to control.

Really nice art! Took me a bit to get the timing down but otherwise it was nice to zone out and try and pull in as many people as I could. Good work!

Submitted(+2)

I loved it! Especially that you just had to figure out what the objective was. I was like... what if... and when I yanked him in it was very satisfying lol

Submitted(+2)

Thought that i can eat fishermans but suddenly :( Nevertheless good art, animations and OST! Wish you good luck!

The execution of the idea is great and the gameplay is really engaging! The fish animations are very well made. It's a very solid game, nothing to critique.
