How was your experience with Mini Jam?
Good, it's nice having an outside source of motivation to finish something. Even tho the game ended up not that fun to play I had fun making it. Drawing the 2 characters, researching nice looking fish species and drawing them, those were my favorite parts.

Loved the pixel art and overall presentation, and the gameplay was engaging. A lot more personality than I expected for the timeline, but think the game could be much improved with audio and music design. I liked the straightforward gameplay loop, but agree that some balancing would have been a good step with more time. Overall good experience worth having and a good submission to the jam.

Great job! the art is excellent. I'm not sure if this was a glitch, but there was no sound at all, which would have added a lot. The only thing is that some of the deeper fish were not as valuable as the orange fish, so It didn't always make sense to go deeper into the ocean. Great job overall!

Thanks for the feedback! And it was not a glitch, unfortunately I didn't have time to put any audio in it. And yeah, the game needs more balance. The orange fish was supposed to be rarer. It was also meant to look like a golden fish but I drew it in one go and ended up looking plain orange.

Beautiful game. I can’t even believe that it was created in 3 days!

Taking reference from Stardew Valley color pallet saved me a lot of time chosing colors.
