What a unique idea and a concept very well executed. I had a lot of fun with it. Love the effects when you hook a space fishy. Mechanics are great and lots of options for added customization. Well done.

"Finventory"... I see what you did there.  And I loved the wormies too. Haha

This was a good one. Plenty of attention to detail and felt really good and complete.

This is really fun to play and is really polished. I like how the little planet can be explored to find interesting furniture or information sources.

I think the music doesn't loop since it stopped for me after a while, which was a bit sad because I thought it was really relaxing.

Overall, great entry!

Absolutely stellar work! (lol) Loved it. Cool idea, fun to play, and well made. I think our fishing mechanic (see Mythic Fishing) is mechanically similar to yours. All the rest is way beyond what we were able to pull off.  Excellent work!

This was very well made, great work! The fishing mini i really enjoyed! The music dissapered at some point and sometimes the tab menu did not appear.

Liked this game Idea, fishing mechanic was nice but not challenging enough, game style and UI were consistent and I liked the choice of music. Everything I interacted with worked properly.

Great submission

You must not have hit any of the harder fish. The  basic fish are dead simple, but some absolutely require the upgrades from the store. I flat out could not catch one that i had hooked from a hotspot.

Thanks, glad you like it. I can understand it not being to challenging, was an area I would have liked to spend more time refining and making it easier to find more challenging catches (or some kind of in-game difficulty/reward scaling). The Pufferfish is one of the harder fish in there personally.

Fun take on a fishing game, looks very polished, loved that you need a space laser to catch a fish.

Developer(+1)

Thanks, yeah can't call it a space theme without some lasers.
Hook & Spook was quite fun too. Really like the aesthetic, and the ocean at night.

I loved all of it! The idea is fresh and i like the gravitational part! The minigame to catch fish could be more challenging in my opinion. Good Work! (Music will stop playing, forgot to loop?)

Thanks I'm glad you enjoyed it, I had fun on your submission too, felt like a great area to keep exploring. Some fish are quite easy to catch and others are almost impossible. I ran out of time for better balancing and more unique fish reeling elements. I'm not sure what was going on with the music, maybe forgot the looping, but I also had some 3D sound attenuation going on that was messing up restarting too.
