A cute little game. :) I am glad it is not too long. You could definitely add some complexities to the loop and make it even more addictive! Like, having multiple ponds, feeding fish etc.

Well done!

Submitted

It's simple, but fun. I wasn't too sure about just watching fish swim in loops at first, but I was wrong. I ended up getting all the fish and upgrading them quite a lot. Also, I love the fish, they're so cute. 

Submitted

Such a cute game, I came here to say I love the art, and I also love the music!!! Such great throwbacks. Great job.

I really enjoyed the game and was stuck playing it for 30 minutes. Great job!

Developer

30 minutes? :D

I myself playtested it for about five minutes xD

The music caught me off guard lol. The fish in the pond are cute, could've used some more details around and in the pond. They also move very fast on my device, is that intentional?

All in all a cute mini idler :-)

The size and detail of the pond hides the fact that it is just an infinity symbol track really well. There's some inherently enjoyable aboutidle games and seeing your fish zoom around faster and faster scratches that itch.

The music is a nice touch especially since there are multiple tracks.

Solid work, only bug I cough is that scrolling up and down can take you past all the options in the buy menu.

I like to think they're racing

Nice simple idle game, I liked the designs of the fish and  I find it funny how fast they get to swim.

Maybe you can add some visual feedback whenever a fish finishes the its loop! ^^

Submitted

If somebody every told me I would be having so much fun clicking on the pond to the medieval cover of Dragostea Din Tei and upgrading fish swimming in the loop to the level 100 and beyond - I wouldn’t believe them. Lol, this game made such a big smile on my face! :D

Submitted

I absolutely in love with the art. nice job 

Submitted

Cool game! Nice music and art. It's funny to see the fish go so fast! I upgraded my "Lorenzo" fish to level 300!

Submitted

nice clicker game. Seeing the fish go fast is kind of hypnotic. Balancing seems a little of sadly but still enjoyable

Submitted (1 edit)

Seeing those fishes going fast af was very satisfying, specially after level 100 upgrade

Nice idle game, great work !

Submitted

Looking at fishes racing in a pond while listening to the Middle ages music is such a vibe "lol and "Snorkel" are wierdly balanced but that didn't impact my fun overall. 

Upgraded them all to lvl 100 and just enjoyed the fish racing, good vibes and fun quick game! 

The balancing feels strange, upgrading the first fish seem more effective than the 2nd or 3rd. But then towards the high end fish I got it, the steps those fish get from upgrading are bigger.

Neat little game, loved the music !

Would have loved to have the pond expanding and having more fish with the more upgrades.

Submitted

A quick and neat idle fishing game. It feels a little unbalanced, as some fishes have similar points, but some have way more. Fun visuals.

Submitted

Peaceful, and enjoyable. The art looks great, and the music choice is very fun.

Submitted

Really zen and full of good vibes! Not gonna lie — I missed a bit of visual feedback for clicks and points.
Congrats on the entry!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I had a sound for clicks, but I noticed that it sounds bad in headphones (one side is way louder than other), so I removed it and there was no time to find a better one :d

Submitted

I hadn't scrolled down enough on the page before playing to see the music, what a surprise that was xD Love it tho, nice and short!

Submitted

Always love a good idle game. One with great visuals? Nice!

Not too long for a jam is great! Very enjoyable!
