It’s fish.

Is this important? No. Am I being needlessly pedantic? Yes. But … it’s fish! The messy, confusing, and frankly absolutely stupid rules for pluralising nouns in English are very important to me!

Hahaha, alright, now to the real review.

The voice acting is not half bad! It sounds like you actually did your best to record it yourself, rather than just using AI. It does mean that the mom and daughter sound quite similar but ah well, it’s a jam entry. But why, why did you have to ruin that by having random TTS lines mixed in? Would it really have taken that much time to record those? The inconsistancy makes it feel far more unfinished than even doing everything in TTS would.

Fishing minigames are notorious for not being fun, so you set quite a challenge for yourself. However, I still think there are several things you could have done to make this more interesting. Less awkward movement, timed events, a relaxing ambience to make waiting around seem worth it, etc. As it is, holding right arrow until I’m told to stop, pressing space, waiting and pressing space again does make for a perfectly functional game, but not a very fun one.

Thank you for playing and giving feedbacks 🤗 Now, I will remember that fish have an absolutely stupid rule. I corrected them in the description. We put some TTS lines because we didn't had the time to record them but we found them essential in order to give some feedbacks and instructions.

Thank you for humouring me! It really is a stupid rule, isn’t it? Especially because “fishes” is also a perfectly grammatical plural form of fish … but only when talking about multiple species of fish. Speaking of species, that one’s the same in singular and plural. And feedback is uncountable. And … ridiculous, all around. :)

That really is a shame. Of course having the lines done with TTS is better than not having them, but I hope you nanage to add voice acted versions at some point. They’re much more fun!
