Swedish Fishes

1. I think I played this game for more than 30 minutes

2. the game is slow but engaging,  lot of fun and very soothing to play after a long day at work

3. the graphics are steller, they are simple but convey a lot of meeting, the sound is good, the song good and calming but become  monotonous after playing for so long

4. at first it's a struggle to catch yellow fish, as you progress however and want to go deeper you actually need to actively AVOID yellow fish as well as greys and pinks. This is a ton of fun how quickly it switches from wanting one fish to avoiding it competely after you upgrade. I think I caught more yellow fish when I was trying to avoid them then I did when I was actually trying to catch them

5. As the storm draws in you get an early chance to catch greys and pinks, this is a cool trade off for staying longer to get these fish. However there is no real punishment in the game, getting hit by lightning even with no health upgrades doesnt do much and damage is not permanent either, I think having the player pay to repair might add an extra dimension of risk/reward this game needs, right now theres only reward, little risk

6. I was so excited to see the big orange fish at the bottom, it felt worth it to finally get there. However with these fish I often encountered a bug , I would try to catch them and it would just disappear off my hook and my fish storage didnt increase so i know it wasnt caught, is there a catching mechanic i wasnt aware of to keep them on the hook? do i need to press a button ? other fish sometimes disappeared from my hook too, but it really stung when it was a lvoely big orange one!

7. I was even MORE excited when I saw Marlins at the bottom, I tried for 10 minutes to catch one, but I could, its very difficult, you need to be able to go straight down with your hook without any deviation. The best time to do it is first cast of the day when theres no other fish in the sea, if you miss its just too difficult on any other cast to get down there. At the end I never did catch one...so sad

Great game, I gave it high marks, keep jamming
