Thank you so much for playing our game, and I'm really glad that you liked it! Our take on the theme was that the fish purposefully gets itself caught and dies for the opportunity to steal things on the boat. Though we totally understand it's not quite as on the nose as a mechanic or many of the directions other creators have gone in! We actually discussed this quite a bit as a team and decided it was worth the risk because when we were spit-balling ideas, the idea behind this game was by far the most compelling to make! Thanks again for playing and leaving the comment!
