  • I got cooked ! Great game. Cool attacks and good signaling to avoid them. It was engageing with the breathing mechanic and picking up the fishes while dodging the attack. Sadly it seems like the audio was bugged or something, cause there's credit for audio and yet I could not hear anything.

Great game! Super fun and intuitive! However, I think that past 2 minutes or so of game play the obstacles become broken. I had spears coming in backwards and slow. 

Developer

Ooh, noted on that. Right now, it seems to be a bug mainly with the web build, so we'll try to see if we can fix that! Thank you for playing and for letting us know! <3

Actually so fun! The combination of needing to get fish for points, but also dodge the bullet-hell makes for some really cool gameplay interactions that had me engaged the whole time! If you expand the game further, I would love to see even more incentive to put yourself at risk and get fish, maybe adding a certain fish quota that you need to meet or else you lose, or something like that. Great game, one of the most fun I've played in the jam!

Really cool 3D models! The movement feels smooth. Unfortunate of the sound not working, but otherwise good job!

Developer

My browser broke the aspect ratio but what little I got to play was nice!

Developer

By chance could you share a screenshot? :o We'd like to try fixing it in the future.

Thank you for playing, and it's nice that you enjoyed a small bit of it! <3

The combination of dodging and catching fish is really fun.

I felt like the graphics for the obstacles and the duck could be improved by more clearly following a common style.

I really liked the graphics for the fish, for the sea and the parallax background.

It would be nice if this game would save your high score.
Developer

Thanks for playing and providing feedback.  We're happy you enjoy the gameplay! 

Your comments are also noted! We were experimenting with doing low poly and 2D together for this jam, so we could definitely do more trial and error with the style. A high score is also a good suggestion, and we can consider adding it once we have time to expand the game after the jam. Thank you once again for your comment! <3

Good use of the Jam theme! the game is very addictive and the simple dive and bullet-hell mechanics add together to make something really fun! I really liked all the art assets and fun effects, some of them made me chuckle.

When I played the game I did have any sound effects at all. I saw on the game page that you had issues with music not working correctly, so I'm not sure if the sound effects also not working is an issue on my part. 

Developer

Thank you for playing as well as your feedback.  We're glad you enjoyed the game! <3

Unfortunately, the SFX not working is part of the "Oh no, something broke last minute" issue, and we plan on fixing it again once the jam is fully over. Thanks for letting us know!
