I love this game, It's really cool!
But I don't like when I lose I wait a while for the main menu to load, the waiting after pressing the play button, then waiting more for the count down. It's just so frustrating.
The fixing for that is very simple, retry button when losing and maybe removing the count down.
Overall I like it so much ❤️
Interesting idea and visual style. Liked it!
the family loved this game. my favorite part was when they found nemo
Very fun, but there just isn't enough variety and it gets stale pretty fast.
More gameplay mechanic would improve the game a lot. Otherwise the pixel art is amazing and the dialogue are hilarious.
I really like the pixel art! cool idea and overall a fun game.
I think if there were a few more mechanics it would be better, just swimming up and down avoiding bombs can get a bit dull, not to say the game was bad, just could have been more. On a separate note it looked amazing those visuals would fit in among commercial games.
feels exceptionally complete, a joy to play. has all the little bells and whistles and leaves a charming impression. thanks for making this!
Solid jokes at the beginning! Love the art style too!
Very fun!
I really liked the fishing the boat idea! :D
The only thing is that little blocking bug already mentioned, damn! ):
Overall really good game!
I give this game 15/15 because:
It looks very great!
The "Story" is short fun and well written with funny puns
The Gameplay is smooth and very easy to get
The Controlls for the fish work very nice!
Audio is absolutly fitting !
The Shortness of the Game is likeable for the Jam!
Very nice! Love it very much!
Really fun, great looking game.
feels great to play!
Quite Comedic dialogue XD
Great game! It was interesting, fun, and looked really good!
This game looks pretty cute and I quite dig the kraken effect when I bait a boat. Somehow, the conch ended up stuck at the top of the screen and I couldn’t figure out how to not lose from that position, but I guess that might be one of the web version quirks you were talking about?
Thanks for the feedback! and yeah that was one of the quirks unfortunately. No clue what causes it, but I'll look into it so I can at least update it later on! :)
This game is beautiful :)
Movement felt really good! I like the overall idea it reminds of a cool arcade game. One thing is the swimming sound effect didn't really match what I would expect swimming to sound like. Maybe adjust the volume and pitch? Might just be me. Anyway, maybe you could add a timer! That would players are forced to swim around those objects more quickly instead of waiting around for them to move :)
