Really fun game, loved the art and the SFX. The dodge minigame was a little unreliable though, sometimes an enemy would just spawn on top of the square. Overall amazing job!

Interesting idea of playing games inside a game and i liked it :)

This was quite an enjoyable experience! I liked how you had to balance the phone games and keeping the fish alive. The only thing I had a little problem with was the maze game that felt way too tight to enter the corridors, but apart from that (and the gamble game that took all my money which I won 0 times >=( ) it was really nice!

I had a great time playing the game! Collecting fish and keeping them alive was a lot of fun. The gambling game was a funny addition that added to the enjoyment. The game could be quite stressful at times, especially when trying to keep the fish alive. 

However, it felt like there were two separate games at times, and switching between them was challenging. I found myself playing more of the dodge game instead of the maze game because the controls in the maze game were difficult to use. Overall, I enjoyed playing the game, and it was satisfying to have a tank full of fish while they lasted.

How truely terrifiying. Like having a Tamagotchi and a gambling addiction all at once. The vibes on this were all very nice. It felt thought out and interesting. Did I love the game loop? Not really, I felt a bit pulled between the two tasks, it was more stress than satisfaction. Did I find anything broken? No but the controls on the maze were a bit janky at times and I would have liked it to feel more responsive. I kept on missing turns as it was overshooting. Did I have fun? That I did, that I did.

Love this ! Insaniquarium was one of my favourite games growing up so definitely had the nostalgia  factor for me. Nice pixel art and horror twist also!
