How does your game bring our theme, The Error is the Feature, to life?
Fish on the Fringe takes the simple concept of a 2D fishing game and turns it on its head through its threadbare, yet responsive and addictive upgrade system. Players will discover out-of-bounds areas and increasingly zany fish through their interactions with the rod modifiers. The core design concept was to take the game-breaking-ness of unrestricted scaling and turn it into an intended feature.

I ended up reaching a point where no fish spawned and it took me awhile to get back to any haha, but I did finish collecting all of them. nice job!
Playing a fishing game after a very long time and its a nice game. But i couldnt cancel the fish rod when pressing x button.
I love fishing games, always a w ^-^
Can see this being a fun game to zone out to, especially with upgrades, sound design matches well with the art, I couldn't get far in the game but I like what I saw!
