I like the concept! The art was good, especially the cats xD! I got a little stuck after picking up an item i didn't need yet(?) is there a way to discard/drop an item?
As others have already said, fantastic concept but very difficult to get started. I didn't know what to do and kept dying because of low water. I didn't even know there was another room for a few minutes. Had to keep restarting and the unskippable cutscene at the beginning was really frustrating.
The artwork is fantastic. That said, I think I missed what to do here as part of the introduction which left me lost for the first couple of tries. I think clearer onboarding guidance or a tutorial would be really useful here. I kept being distracted by my O2 meter getting low too as I was trying to figure out my first steps, too, which I can see as an essential part of the gameplay, but it might be a mechanic worth introducing a bit later in the game after teaching the player the core mechanics.
OMG, this game is so much fun! The story is brilliant and hilarious. I love the idea of an army of fish fighting against cats. And there is Shark Kitty!! I absolutely fell in love with the art style. The text at the beginning felt a little too slow, though. I kept clicking because I thought I could skip to the next line. The character movement is fast and smooth! SFX feedback is also fantastic, and dialogue design is really well done, I like the warning feedback whenever I make a mistake. Haha
This is such a high-quality game overall, even though the autumn theme isn’t very clear yet. Great job!
Nice concept, agree with the other comments about the on-boarding being a little bit confusing. Very cool pixel art, especially in the intro.
I actually gasped when I finished the game. Extremely cute art style overall and it was really exciting trying to find out what the design of each cat was going to be! Unfortunately, Cidney Sweeney's portrait in the Journal was bugged to match with the Pumpkin cat's. It also would've been nice to have each ingredient be labeled without having to run up to it. Regardless, rather enjoyable game and fantastic art!
Pretty art and fun intro!
I think the game can benefit from an easier on-boarding as I was confused on what to do.
I love the fish outta water mechanic tho lol!
Was a bit difficult to orient myself at first with what I was supposed to do because I died during the tutorial and kinda panicked, lol. The out of water window is really unforgiving XD The art is very cute though and the movement is pretty polished, swimming (or, in my case, spinning, lol) in the tank was my favorite part. I wasn't sure what does the money do though? I've expected to be able to buy recipe or water upgrades with it, but couldn't find where I can spend it. Cool game though, well done! ☆
Visuals of the game look really nice! I also think the gameplay is quite interesting as well, but the instructions were a bit unclear. I got the first ritual recipe done, but no idea where to go from there.
Also it would have been really nice if I didn't drown as the the game is still explaining what to do :D Really nice concept for a game either way. Good job!
I liked the concept and art, but I can't seem to get any other recipes other than the pumpkin pie one. Also, the water mechanic should probably not be enabled while you are reading the tutorial.
The art looks great and the premise is really fun but I couldn't get started. Ran out of air while trying to read the instructions then the dialog got stuck on "what are you doing?". Would love to play a post-jam version!
