I love the atmosphere and ambiance you've created, the pond can be serene yet full of life. That's a really important thing for a game about fishing and taking in the sites.
Something about the controls I really struggled with. Like, I'd look to my left and then try to look behind me by pressing left again but that doesn't work, and then my brain short circuits and says 'guess I have to turn the other way' so I press right expecting to face forward but instead seeing the side of the boat again - I never knew where I was looking. It could also be that I suck
I liked your reeling minigame, it was simple and immediately clear how it worked. There's a delicate balance to the skill requirement where you don't want your game to be too easy, but you don't want it to be so hard that you can't fend off the spirits. I think you struck a happy medium
Good game!
