Just like in the real world, gambling is truly cursed! Spending 30 coins just to get cursed at the end was hilarious. I really loved the map design and the art in general. Keep up the great work!

This is why I don't gamble. Damn well took all my MONEY! I like the idea of fishing with a cursed "catch"... see what I did there...  or you did.. anyway! Really great game with smooth and solid gameplay. I do not know if there was supposed to be an ending, but I caught a few fish that cursed me. Never thought I would every say that. If there was an ending, please just reply to my comment so I can see it. If the game does not have an ending, I would like to see it someday. Happy Game Deving!

No ending, just an endless loop. In a perfect world, there would have been a better story and goal, like escaping the curse or something, but nonetheless, thanks for the kind words.
