Simple but fun and polished! I like the risk reward mechanic.

Nice game! Reminds me of old flash games i played during school (starts crying). Good job guys!

Submitted

Pretty cool idea, I love the concept, keep up the good work!

the vibe of the game is pretty cool, it feels like something I would play at a modern arcade game for tickets

Submitted

Very tricky game, my high score is 13. Wasn't ready for when they started dynamite fishing (??). I love the controls and the risk reward of wanting to get the worms at the top of the screen before the other fish get them.

Submitted

This is a very fun little game! I really love how the player fish spins around the cursor so you can't just be safe by standing still, great job!

Submitted

This was a very addicting arcade type of game that I could honestly see being a well performing mobile game! Very fun, art was good, the theming of reversing the players normally playing as the fisherman was so interesting to see! Good job!

This was surprisingly addictive. The movement has that Flappy Bird factor where it's just frustrating enough to make you think you'll master it next try. The risk/reward of competing with other fish was clever. At first I thought it was one of those games where you grow larger as you eat, which might be worth considering since I also struggled to distinguish my fish from the shoal sometimes. Small touches like the fishbone volume sliders were very cool. Nice job :)

Reverse Fishing bro!

Its nice you got the worms to draw the player up to the hooks. The fish orbiting the cursor certainly brings its own difficulty to the controls but its fun

Submitted

Simple game but it was fun, good job to you !

Funny game, good idea!

Submitted

Took me a second to get a hang of the controls and my objective but I eventually got it. And the fish at the top were not gonna let me get any worms if it was up to them. Good job!

Submitted

Fun game, I like the controls too
