Simple but solid, loved the music and sounds

This made me relax like I was actually fishing, and the lava suit is hilarious.

haha this game is awesome! It makes me very happy when I catch a fish and the sound effects he makes are amazing! I loved it so much, great job! Weehee!

Thankyou for feedback.

 The game really made me smile, it's simple but feels really complete and thoughtful. You did a great job with the animation, it gives a cozy game vibe even though the setting is not that of a typical cozy game. The music was sweet and the "yipee" voice was adorable. I was also able to both cast and reel in with spacebar, which I thought was easier than clicking between space/mouse click like the instructions. Nice job!

Developer

Thank you for the great feedback, it is much appriciated.

Very simple game that made me smile (especially the yippee 😂). My only wish is that there was a punishment for trying to pull it in early, because right now you can just spam until you get a fish.

This game looks very nice and i like the chill fishing vibes! I would have liked if the fish weren't hooked for quite as long to add some difficulty.  I did like your casting mechanic though. very fishy lol!

Developer

In my rough plan, I wanted there to be different types of fish, and each would have different difficulties, some would shorten the time given to hook them. But a lack of time to implement this feature.

Thank you for feedback.

Congrats on finishing the jam! I giggled at the person chilling  in the lava suit. I managed to catch a few fish looking at your instructions, but I would have liked some more feedback on why my cast failed. And maybe gamify the power meter like a small skill game or something like that. Good luck!

With one hour left before submission, it was something I did know that there was a lack of feedback as to why catch misses. I should have left the bobber to linger a couple of seconds to show that it did not land in the lava, but ran out of time to implement.

Thank you for your feedback, I am glad you enjoyed my twist on the no water limitation

i agree with the below.

I managed to figure out how to cast. and hook a fish.

but thats it. nothing else. ended with 0 points.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback.

I have updated the instructions to make it clearer on to play the game. Did you land the fish after you hooked one? or did you wait too long and the fish got away?

Submitted

I dont know. I dont know what was happening. Hahah

Submitted

I did not manage to understand how to play the game. It did not feel very intuitive.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback.

I have improved the instructions on the game page site to make it a bit clearer on how to play the game.

The game has a very simple game loop, as I only had a limited time to complete it, there is no deep game logic to it.
