Haul lines, grow a fishing cove, then fold it back for lanterns on the cliff path. It fishes on while you're away.

Claude by Anthropic, and nothing else. Claude Code wrote all of the JavaScript locally on my PC: the game, the three.js scene, the sound engine and the automated Firefox checks. In the Claude app, Claude wrote the design document and every batch brief, drew every sprite and tile in code, composed the music and sounds in code, and wrote the game's text. No image, music or voice generators were used.

The pixel art and game mechanics are very good; the game is very interesting to play, and I enjoyed it.

Love it- perfect little cozy idle game. Looks great, feels great.

Super easy to get into — within my first three clicks I had new fish and achievements popping up, and clicking a glowing school of fish for a burst of coins is so satisfying. Lovely art too! Feedback: the 10M goal for the festival felt very far away around the 5-minute mark, and the hold-to-fish earnings seemed a bit inconsistent. If you have a minute, I'd love your thoughts on my entries Torch Topple (knock blocks out of a torch-lit tower) and Pop Chain (one tap to set off a chain of sparks)!

Love the art direction on this one! Nice use of traditional 3D effects in combination with 2D pixel art. The world felt very alive with all of the stuff happening in the background while you play.

Definitely had a cozy feel. There are a few moments where it feels like I'm just waiting for money, and I also didn't have a clear goal (nothing new to work towards in the shop), especially in the early part of the game.

I also really liked the fish catalog, especially the oddities.

Such a quiet, peaceful game — the mood is lovely. I did wish the fishing had a bit more of a hook (sorry) — a rare catch or a little surprise now and then would keep me casting.

Hi! I remember your pumpkin game from the last jam, Pull-Tab Pumpkin, so it’s lovely to see your new one.
This is a really pleasant idler, and I’m a big fan of games where you collect fish. The atmosphere is calm and cozy, and it’s amazing that such a lovely sea sound was made entirely in code. I didn’t run into any problems. I did, however, run into dolphins 🐬 and crabs 
Great job!
