Great game! I managed to get 300 points my second run. I wish there was a difficulty curve or some more enemy types. After I made it to both sides of the map and back, just dodging the same divers got a bit dull. There was a moving hook type but it only spawned once I think and I would have liked to see some more of those because the stationary hooks were pretty easy to avoid. But overall, great work for 48 hours!

Thanks, I was planning to add more variety but due to time constraints I only had one day instead of two. I am happy you liked it for how it is :)

I can't believe they sent multiple divers with harpoons just to catch a mere salmon! Why can't they just leave me alone! Jokes aside, as a fellow anti-fishing game jammer, I really loved this. 

Developer

Thanks, I appreciate it a lot

it said it was wasd movement but it was arrow keys, else it was really good, fun game, but it was sometimes hard to know if i took damage all in all though its a good game

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, I totally forgot I did not add the WASD to my input system. Thanks for playing :)

Could not get the fish to move... What was I doing wrong? WASD

Developer

Sorry I totally forgot I used arrow keys for movement, normally I would do it with WASD, so that was a silly mistake. Thanks for checking my game out though :)

Fun little game! Got a 234 score my second run, but also got really unlucky with one patch of divers... Nice job on the jam entry! 

Developer

Yeah if there are a lot of divers it could get quite hard :D, thanks for playing
