I made an updated version of a game jam submission with a bit more polish and some extras!

The game is called 'Welcome to Fish Town', it's playable on browser and takes less than 10 minutes. 

It's a cosy, fetch-quest, 2D pixel game with a small amount of platforming and some easy mini-games. There are also easter eggs/secrets you can find and some fun interactions with NPCs :) Plus a lot of very bad fish puns.

Play it here: https://jayne404.itch.io/welcome-to-fish-town

The original game was made in just under 3 days for Jerbob's silly jam and I have left that version on my page so you can see what I managed to get done in the time.

This updated version fixes a lot of bugs and jank, and mostly adds stuff I wanted to do in the jam but didn't have time to include. 

All pixel art, code and music were made by me, Jayne404, and I also drew the cover art you see above. Other assets (two sound effects and a handful of photographs) not made by me are credited and verifiably made by humans.

I'm a relatively new developer so I still have a lot to learn, any support would really help me out. Especially let me know if you find a bug that I've missed.

The player character in this game was made based on concept art for another, slightly more ambitious game I'm planning, so if you'd like to see that you can follow my page!

very silly!! very fun!! my last rating of the jam :D

Zeep Zorp! made it to the 8-12 :)

What a fun little twist on a button clicker game :D

Lots of little references in the item descriptions! the penguin also reminds me a bit of the ones from club penguin haha :>

The sound effect scared me a bit cause of the volume but other than that this game is very fun and addicting! I like the aesthetic as well, my high score is 42 :)

I like the silly dog :)

Nicely done, i found the freezing on parrying a bit disorienting and its surprisingly challenging overall, but fun nontheless :)

Very polished! I am terrible at it because i can't read fast but its a really fun and well executed concept :)

I had no idea what was going on at first but i enjoyed clicking around and making pathways, very fun and very silly little apple cat :>

Fun! the green spiky platforms are difficult to see against the background but aside from that i'd say this controls quite nicely and has some interesting mechanics :D

Very fun and chill. I really enjoy the style, the flavour text shows a great attention to detail too!

Really awesome visual style! I managed to drop the pistol the first time i tried to play, the second time around i got launched into the air and softlocked in a wall which was a little funny (attatched a screenshot i took, cool view!), but i lost my progress and had to start again haha. I'll come back and try to beat it at some point. The gameplay switchup for fights is really creative, though i'm kindve terrible at it :) 

Cool, i had an issue where some of the pellets would disappear before hitting the zombies, but other than that i managed to get to the town :) i like the little comic panels at the start and end too 

Very silly, i like the goob stealer guy's animation :D

EXCEEDINGLY cute and silly. I love it

I like the art style :) i chucked in random ingredients for the poison, i'm guessing thats what i was meant to do ? xD

Its like a cute Papers Please! I love the art, i was a bit confused about which thing did what at first, but I love the little touches like being able to stamp the desk! really fun :)

Love a good platformer, found all the colours :)

Very silly, the only thing i will say is some walls like the rocks blend into the background a bit so its hard to tell that its a barrier, i thought it was an invisible wall at first haha. Fun gameplay though :D

Flymptastic :D Hatsune miku and Freby fazbear would absolutely not shut up, i love it

Makes sense, you don't realise these things until you get other people to playtest it, i guess thats something game jams are very useful for! i'll try and beat it at somepoint when i have the time :>

Clever little twist, takes a second to get the hang of but its very satisfying to watch it play out when you've done it right :)

Yes i am, it comes up larger than my screen i think. I can't see the top and bottom at the same time at my normal zoom but I just tried zooming out on my browser to 50% and i can see the whole game now :)

Playing this after my ADHD assessment was truly an experience! took me a few tries to trigger the dialogue for the meds but i got them eventually!! :>

Lovely! Incredibly charming all the way through, i would absolutely play a longer version of this :) <3

Quack button!! Not too complicated, very satisfying to play, i like it :)

Haha i struggled to get the high notes but i wasn't really giving it my all, i'd probably do better if i wasn't worried about disturbing my family lol. Very fun concept, incredibly unique as i haven't seen anyone else do something like this before! Also.... TRRROOOBIOOOOOOO!!!

This is super cool, i do find the landing areas to be quite unforgiving sometimes and I've only gotten half way so far, but other than that this is very solid! The music is really nice also :)

This is so good! The pixel animations are incredible, i wish i had your skill man, the concept is simple but well executed and i really like the music :) would be excited if you made a version of this in the future with more levels, obstacles/enemies and maybe upgrades for attacks? Really great stuff

haha you're so real for that

I love the silly pigeon! The artstyle is very charming and I really like all of the dialogue :] the ui is very polished too

Yeah sorry haha, see my reply to the comment below yours, i forgot to change one of the dialogues last minute, as long as you have 3 keys and interact with the first fish again you should be able to get the end screen :)

Very enjoyable! Nice little gameplay loop and progressively more difficult obstacle dodging :)

Sadly noooo. i woke up in a cold sweat a few hours after submission bc realised i forgot to change the dialogue after i reduced the number of minigames >.> guess was bound to miss something like that haha

Theres one on the far left, far right, above the barrel house, there's one you have to jump on the birdhouse ledge then the roof to get to, and then jump on top of the submarine to get to the one next to the soda-can house :)

Sorry about that! They should work in fullscreen but there might be some issues with other computers/browsers i'm not aware of </3 glad you liked my art tho!!

Haha what a fun little twist. The little credit guys at the end turned invisible so I didn't get a good look at them, but everything worked great other than that. Really liked the music too!

Really fun!! I am embarassed about how long it took me to realise you could move with WASD to hit the ones on the sides, but once i figured that out and got into my trusted rythm game strategy of 'never stop clicking to the beat' i really enjoyed it. The Big shot level is great too!!

Thank you I'm glad you liked it!! I havent encountered the space bar not working for the fishing before, it seems to work for me so i'm not sure what could be causing it, sorry about that :)
