The visuals were good.
The mechanic was easy to understand and worth a try.
But the controls were sometimes random like trying to buy a fish and slide it in the tank, but instead, the 3 fish already present disappeared.
Edit: played on Firefox / Ubuntu
Thanks for the feedback, there's some bugs that I didn't get to fix before the deadline unfortunately
I had a hard time doing anything as the mouse detection is either too pixel precise or offset and there's no visual feedback. It took me half a minute to get into the game because the play button wasn't responding to the mouse until I found the right pixel. It was a struggle to get through the buy menu as well. Anyway, once I finally got fish and food in the tank, they didn't reproduce. Somehow I don't think I got the expected experience.
Thanks for the feedback, I think the button collisions on some devices are smaller than on other, and reproduction occasionally glitches, sounds like you got unlucky sorry
Cute game! I am a terrible fish mom though... they all just left. Ungrateful brats. Or they died... in that case Rest In Peace my beloved children.
Glad you liked it, they probably died if they didn't have enough food, didn't have enough time to do a death action so they just disappear :)
I do not know how to play it, there does not seem to be any inputs.
You drag fish in from the sides of the tanks, when you release your mouse a fish will spawn
Game looks good , sound design is good. The drag and drop did not seem to work for me. Could not get any food into the tank
Thanks for the feedback, Can you not drag any food in? The collisions on the buttons are close to the edge of the screen
I'm a sucker for fish tank games, and the game is very well presented. Although, I don't get how to play, a little tutorial or how to play section would be nice.
Glad you liked it, I have just uploaded a info sheet, I hope this helps :)
