Nice game! You ended up with a pretty similar take on the theme to mine. haha.

The visuals and audio were pretty nice, and it wasn't too difficult or anything. I did realize it was a bit hard to shoot moving enemies from far away, because the player bullets were a bit slow, so I had to adjust to that a little. But overall, good job!

That was peak video game and nobody can convince me otherwise. I love the gameplay I love the sounds I love the visuals and I love the overall theme. Also, pretty smart way to incorporate the limited theme. Great job!!

Good game, looks polished.

I really enjoyed the fish theme and how it was implemented in the game for the jam. The gameplay is really fun and I found it amusing when the recharge bullets were accidentally shot outside of the screen and I had to wait for them again. It was a bit frustrating but in a funny way. Overall, the game is really solid and well-made

I love the idea of enemy attacks giving you the ammo, really creative idea. great job

Top notch bubble sound. Would fish again :D


Really enjoyed the quite challenging bullet hell mechanics mixed with cartoony sprites. Also the way how the fish spins really appeals to me for some reason :D

I have way too much fun spinning the fish around between waves 😂

Very cool game, probably the best concept to come from a game using the limited ammo theme! Good stuff all around!

This game is great! The hit feedback is very satisfying and the sprites and color palette are wonderful. It is very easy to see the enemies and player at a glance against the background. Gameplay was fun and responsive.  At first I played the browser version, and then switched to the downloadable game. At first I found the distortion effect when dashing to be a little distracting and the bubble particles hid my character a bit too much, but I got used to it quickly.

Again, really fun game! I would love to see it expanded if you ever decide to!

I like the aquatic theme combined with the bullet absorption. The art was great.

Cool! I liked the delayed shooting and the reload mechanic
The timer was also a good idea, no time to chill haha

The ammo mechanic works perfectly for the theme, and with the blue bullets coming out at a very fair rate it never felt too punishing to push my limits and experiment taking down the well varied enemies. the visual and audio feedback for getting hit and landing hits felt very good as well. the art style is simple and effective and the background music is charming. Overall an excellent submission that, for me, checked all the boxes.

This game is great dude! The little details really impressed me, it has a lot of polish. I love the way you have to get bullets from enemies, such a unique mechanic. Also, the art is great. Nice work :)

Nice Theme, Art, Music and Sound Design. All implemented really well into a smooth experience. Really enjoyed the "You have limited bullets and you recharge them by collecting them (from enemies)", which I have seen other games using but it certainly seems at its best here. No Notes.

I love the audio, the art is nice, but the bullets where too slow, making it hard to hit the opponents. I don't know if it was intentional, but it runied the fun a little bit...

Great game! Loved being a little blue fishy! Would've loved if there was a little tutorial or just a little screen that explained the controls. I understood most of the main controls, but the ammo refill thing caused me a bit of trouble. I mean I am dumb so that could be. I died twice after which I understood how that worked :p

Btw, the sound design was so damn great, and the game was juicy af with great feedback to keep you playing! I loved the implementation of the theme and the game!

Great game! It’s very fun to play but what really gets me is that the sounds and the shooting are EXTREMELY satisfying, I love it. Also a very good use of the theme having to get some bullets as ammo, which plays very well with the fact that the enemies have clear patterns that you can easily get. Nice work ^^
