The art on this page looked nice and I played the game hoping to see more of it ... but there is nothing more. Anyway, short but sweet game.

Yup I wished I can create more content but unfortunately, for a 7 days jam that's my limit. I focused more on polishing the game instead of adding new stuff that is not stable for this jam as I feel like having less content but everything feels great is more important than having more content but everything is buggy. Anyways, thanks for playing the game!
Fishing near a volcano, I've always dreamed of that :D Great job, I loved the music. There's even an achievement system!

Inner DoorGreat game with a good, fun and addicting concept! Could be improved a lot though. It's pretty pointless to have all the upgrades upgrade the same thing, at least they all say they improve only rare fish chance. Maybe you didn't have enough time to do different upgrades? Because currently there is no strategy to buying, you just buy whatever is the cheapest. There could be something which reduces wait time for getting fishes, increasing fish value etc.
Also the aquarium could be improved a lot. The fishes generate barely enough money to make a profit, unless you play for a long time. Also I don't know what the point of the feeding is, the fishes are alive for 20h and no one is going to play for that long.
Those things would already make it a lot more fun to play the game for a long time. I wanted to try and max every upgrade but gave up cause I got too bored when nothing new happened. So more areas would also be great. And I wonder what the two secret achievements are, couldn't figure them out.
But yeah for only 7 days of time and working solo, this is really good, well done!

Elevator EscapeThanks for giving out such constructive feedbacks! Yes I do agree that the gameplay will get pretty boring and monotonous very quickly since the game mechanics is very simple. I planned to expand it more on the gameplay and connect the equipment and fishing action more but due to time constraint, this is what i completed on time. I spent quite some time in making the aquarium system and also polishing the whole looks of the game so in the end i dont have much time to refine the overally gameplay of the game. Still, thanks a lot for playing and providing such thorough feedbacks though!
Very good fishing mechanic, simple to pick up, hard to master. The character was on the left of the screen which made me wonder if I could move to different places on the screen. Very good music as well.

House of the OlpsVery chill! It made me want to collect every fish and location and upgrade!

Amaya's LightReally relaxing and polished experience. The aquarium system and achievements add a lot of charm and replay value, and it’s impressive how much content you packed into a jam game. Great vibe overall!

Hitchhiker's Guide to HeroismThanks for playing the game! I found the music on freesound.org which is royalty free!
So neat and relaxing! I thought the inclusion of an aquarium and achievements were pretty cool, I don't think I've seen achievments in any game for a jam before!
The background and fisherman pixel art are very nice despite being a little blurry ♡

The Kraepelin ChambersI really liked it, it was pretty relaxing, the music was beautiful and the backgrounds were amazing, the only issue was probably the fisherman who looked a bit blurry, but other than that, it's a great game, well done!

The forbidden tacoGreat game! I loved the collecting - once I realized the fish weren't just for completion, but that I could feed them, care for them, and earn income from them, I was hooked. You've put a lot of work into this. Well done!
