Neat game. I included it in my LOWREZJAM compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Really pleasant and relaxing to play! I also liked the almost-all-blue color scheme, and the tactile mouse controls. Also, serious props for the use of emscripten. That's a challenge all on its own.

DisconnectVery very very coool game. Soo cool game mechanics, they are lot of different thing in this game and all are enjoyable ;). I love this game, sooo cool art. Good job.

The Great Adventurer ClassicStraight forward one button game play. I cracked up the first time I cast the reel XD
Don't think the digital clock you made went unnoticed. That was a fun little aesthetic that went well with the LOWREZ theme (with each pixel representing a "light" on the clock).
The minimap was a little confusing. I wasn't sure what the blue/black areas meant. Got the hammer and octopus (and broke my like like 3 times).
The dog "studio logo" at the beginning was cool too.

Return of SerenityBut isn't that how you actually cast ? ;)
The bits on the map show where the items actually are.. originally, I was going to have them represented in the main area as well, but couldn't quite figure out a way to do it without completely muddying the screen.
It's also meant to be a badger.. think I may have modified it a bit too much from the original design this time!
Thanks for Playing!
Took a few goes to figure out what I was doing! When I got the hang of it I was going to try and Catch 'Em All! But I kept catching ones I already had. But it's a nice game and a good idea, sound would have been nice, splashy effects and some sea shanties!
Also, you should totally combine this with PIxel Beard! :P

Out Of ItThe map generates one location for each of the 16 items, and between 5 and 20 other things randomly, so you can definitely catch em all... I perhaps should've just left it scattering the 16, but hindsight is a wonderful thing.
As for pulling it in with Pixel Beard.. I'd need to rewrite one of them! Pixel Beard was GMS2, this is my own C engine exported to JavaScript via Emscripten ( because I clearly thought 64x64 wasn't enough of a challenge... )
Sound is clearly my weak point, so will have to concentrate on that Next Time(tm)
Thanks for playing!
It did took me a while before catching something. I didn't know what to do when the little arrow is green, but I did manage to catch some fish. Fun little game!
