That anime-style music intro really caught me off guard in a fish game. I love it! 😄
Definitely a very unique interpretation of the theme. I might have skipped the tutorial and had no idea why I kept losing — until I realized you can rotate the camera. Good job!
Thanks a lot! Haha, yes the music is from an anime music pack, happy you noticed. Since the game ended up being more on the hectic side, it seemed like a good choice. The winning and losing is currently not working correctly, but I'm glad you had fun :D
Really impressed by the polishing, beginning at the main menu!
Thank you so much <3 We aimed for a small idea and wanted to polish it into a diamond. Sadly, I didn't get my grabby fingers onto the gameplay scene to add audiovisual feedback but that left me with more time to squeeze everything out of the title screen. We'll definitely be rounding out the last edges and add the "juice" to the gameplay as well!
I was a little confused at first (maybe because I felt too cool for the tutorial :| ) but got into it quickly! Good job, especially on the art! 🐟🦈
Tutorials are optional, we... need... fish! I agree, our artists did a wonderful job and nailed the vision. And we had a lot of fun making it. 🐠
The concept and the art is amazing, I would really love to see how the fish is eaten by the shark to have the deeper immersion, but overall it's really great!
Much appreciated! We had the shark animations in already but then they stopped working at some point and we noticed too late. Will add them back in after the voting ends ^^
I like this game play idea! But it also is really hard mastering it due to the camera and perspective imo. What I don't quite get with this one is the connection on the theme (?) Would love to hear your interpretation here :) Still: The art is nice and it kinda feels like a cozy game, although its "hard to play" :D
Thanks a lot! The idea was that you have a hivemind that you need to shape into one body. Like how fish tend to stick together as a large group to ward off predators. We didn't get to balance the game but will do so later to hopefully make finishing it more feasible c:
Really unique idea that could have benefitted from a bit more feedback and info, like how long you have until the shark comes or some kind of animation when it does eat the fish (it felt a bit sudden an anticlimatic so far)
Thank you so much. We made the attack animation and wanted to add more visual and audio feedback but ran out of time to implement them unfortunately. Gonna add those later :D
Really cute and polished game with nice visuals and audio! It makes me a little sad that I was so bad at keeping my fishies safe :( I only ever lasted like 5 short rounds before being defeated. Maybe I was just too slow. Is there a way of beating the game or is it mainly about lasting as long as you can?
Thank you! There currently is only 5 rounds and the win/defeat screen is not working as intended, so you've actually beat the game most likely. The game is intended to have a certain amount of rounds and there should be various shapes but unfortunately we didn't get to put them into the game in time. We'll be uploading a version with fixes, putting in the right shapes and balancing once the rating period is over.
Thank you, that sounds great! Good job nonetheless
