Very fun idea, at first I thought there wasn't much strategy but you can actually herd the other fish into a corner and keep them bunched up to improve your odds. Love the intro cutscene as well, however there should be an option to skip it as it's quite long to have to watch every attempt. Great game!
Thanks for the kind words! You actually can skip the intro by clicking your mouse during the cutscene

I hate fishing... but I LOVE this game! That goddamn green fish kept getting in my way XD
I may or may not have killed some of my fish brethren by mistake.
There's opportunity for further tuning, but the experience of pulling people into the water as a swol fish, combined with protecting my fish brethren was a 5 star experience!

I wish I could give you 6 stars.. HELL WITH IT! YOU GET 6 STARS!!
If I were to recommend one improvement, I'd say that the fishers could use some more dialogue; right now, the lady fisher is canonically bisexual XD Nothing wrong with that, just saying there could be more diverse dialogue.

Is it bad if I love the screams of my enemies?
As far as improvements, some of the animations could be smoothed out, but the presentation complemented the theme so well that I couldn't justify withholding a star. I loved the comic strip at the beginning. It gave great context to my experience.
P.S. This game deserves more attention. I hope you do well this jam!
Great game! Feels like a finished flash game, pretty impressive for a 48 hour game jam! Loved the cutscene and the intro music.
There is an issue with the UI getting screwed up on resolutions other than 1080p. We thought we fixed the issue, but apparently our fix got reverted at some point. We are very sorry. The game should still be playable though. The biggest issue is the play button and the quit button get stacked on top of each other at 1440p. You should be able to click on the Play button if you are careful.
For the optimal experience, please play at 1080p
