I felt like playing a Final Fantasy game from PS1 world map with fishing! Some things to adress:
- About the sinalization for the ocean, it could be clearer where you should go
- It has a bug on the beginning if you are pressing the down button on the start of the game or coming back of some area, the player can fall into infinity, so an invisible wall would be nice
- About "combat" system, it would be more exciting if the fish movements were random, cus after you memorize it, it becomes predictable and because of that, can be a lil boring
- About the rarer fish, I think you used an percentage way to check of what fish you bait, it would be nice if that percentage goes up after everytime you bait on the same way, so we can see another species. (I've released about 10 fish on the first area, and couldn't see what the third one was)
That said, I really liked the game, one of my favs of the jam gameplay wise, but also I need to adress that I don't see how the "community" theme is applicable here, but great work overall!
