It's a genuinely fun fishing game... at 64 pixels square! The 3D effect is well done; some 3D submissions don't look great at long distances, but yours does short and long distances very well. The audio is relaxing, although I wouldn't have minded a musical track. This is worth developing further, although maybe at a larger resolution.

Well ain't this a delight. i enjoy my experience trough it from beginning to the end, it really relaxing just looking around and catching every fish around. while many area of the map seem rather empty the scenery is more enough to made up for it.
i have spend many time exploring far and wide to find this so called legendary fish, so when i found a shark swimming around my first reaction is to whip out my fishing rod and try to catch it. and sure enough it was the legendary fish. the absurdity of the shark being the final fish made me laugh really hard.
