Great gaming experience! Really fits the themes of this jam well and the art style is fantastic!
For something that's in every game (it feels like) Im always surprised when someone do something creative with fishing. Really nice experience.
Short, sweet, and clearly sentimental. Loved the atmosphere and the written sound of dialogue, I feel like the audio and story were done really well. Love the art style too, the puffer looks very puffy indeed! Great game ^^
I like grinding fishing in MMO's. This one captures perfectly the vibe of repeating the minigame and reflecting. Very cool mechanic and vibe. Would spend 4 hours doing it over and over :D.
The fishing mechanic is spot-on. The parallax is good to look at, and the overall artyle is very cozy and comforting. The music adds to the atmosphere greatly as well. 10/10 would play again!
super chill, I like the art a lot!
I like the face they did when you catch a fish
Nice parallax effect, and really good presentation. The mini games are great. Not too difficult, not too hard.
Fantastic game loop! I'm a sucker for any fishing game and the I really appreciated the mechanic in this one, good work!
Great cozy game with an awesome artstyle!
The artwork is incredibly detailed and beautiful! I felt the coziness deep in my bones; the only thing missing was a warm cup of tea by my side.
Also, after playing this game, I felt the urge to play Stardew Valley again. I think I'll go check it out.
The theme is well reflected :3 Nice polishes on the art and cozy gameplay. Increasing the reaction time for hold to fish QTE could make the experience even smoother~
Incredible execution and cohesion, impressive amount of polish. The core fishing mechanic was very well done. Being able to notice a pattern in the fish's movement is a very good way to add depth to the system. Wonderful narrative as well, this style is very effective.
And where is the reflection?
The reflection is through the storytelling.
Beautiful experience :D Creative fishing mechanics and a wonderful narrative, all in such a short moment. Love this a lot. Art is gorgeous too
Beautiful! With a simple little fishing gameplay loop, a good sound atmosphere. A little story very chill and on point with the cozy vibe. I like the simple but professionnal camera following the mouse. Very well done!
Great atmosphere. I was hoping there would be a fishing game in this jam, and here it is. Nicely done.
Short, but it still manages to say a lot.
Beautiful little game. I really enjoyed it!
I loved the game's artwork and narrative style; it's beautifully done. I especially liked how the screen expands in the direction the mouse moves. In short, it's a sweet game. I'd be happy if you tried our game too :3
