I suggest letting the player know that the game is part idle, I spent a lot of time just pressing buttons hoping something would happen. The screen effect is really cool, and your take on the theme is nicely developed and executed in this game!

Fun game! Also want to call out how we had similar ideas, but it's fun to see how even similar concepts can have such different executions. Well done!

was confused as to what to do in the beginning, and the difficulty ramped up quickly.

Nice game, only complain is the lack of tutorial/beggining (playable because of nice and simple controls) great job

Developer

I'm glad you liked it. I wanted to add a tutorial at first, but I lost a lot of time fixing bugs with the behavior of fishes. That said, I'd like to update it after reviews for the jam end, and one of the things I'll add is a tutorial.

Imagine this mechanics in a 3D environment with the implementation of boids and different types of fish and hazards. Good work.

Developer

Thanks a lot for the feedback. I've never really worked on 3D games yet, so I'd have to look into it, but maybe down the line I'll do it, but I still am looking into updating this one before, once the rating period ends.

Enjoyed this game a lot! This game doesn't really have flaws in my opinion except that it's a bit to easy.
Keep it up!

Developer

Thanks a lot for the feedback. After the ratings are finished, I'll probably update it, and one of the ideas I had was to add different difficulty levels for more experienced players.

Shark is MVP.

Developer

I'm glad you enjoyed the game. Assetwise, the shark is the one that took the most time (besides the background), since it's the first time I've done any animations, and I'm not really good at animations.

Really good job mate, keep going

Developer

Thanks a lot. I'm very happy that you liked it.
