Honestly a pretty fun fishing mechanic that I haven't seen before and charming humor throughout with the fish variety and only unlocking music in the game once you buy the radio from the store. I'd love to see the gameplay a bit more fleshed out and more art added to the game. 


Bug: pressing escape while in the journal or store would bring up the pause menu behind the one I was previously using and messed up the money score and time on the top of the screen, but other than that an enjoyable play!

Was pretty confused at first, since it wasn't clear you have to hold F down until you get a fish. I was just tapping or holding it briefly expecting a bite. Using the mouse wheel to catch was novel.

Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback!! We didn't get started until a bit after the jam so one of the things that didn't quite make it into this version was an in-game tutorial, certainly will be something we add at a later date.
