How does your game represent "Slick"?
I interpreted slick as in slippery and in my mind the slickest animal is a fish. I designed the movement to feel slick/slippery but not annoying(hopefully)

Honestly the realistic fish + that slap sound effect was hilarious and made me instantly engaged. Everything feels polished and I was surprised how great the fish feels to mess around with. Great work :)

I love the sound effects--especially that fish slap sound. Great entry, congrats!

This is awesome, so satisfying to control the fish. Might be the slickest game of the jam in terms of controls and game feel. I could see this going far as a climbing rage game like getting over it. Well done!

I love the physics of the fish so much, really makes you feel slick, especially with the sfx. There was a blue tint to the screen at some point which made it hard to see. Great work, very charming

Okay this game is so peak. I love the flopping fish and sound effects and music. Such a great atmosphere. I laughed out loud the first time the spear fish caught me mid air after I strayed too far left in the ocean.
