This was fun!! I struggled for a few moments with the reel before figuring out you have to grab the handle specifically. Maybe if it stood out a little more? The sound design and pacing worked really well. I
fell off my chairwas not spooked at all by the ending.Great to hear you had a good time! I agree that I should have given a bit more indication on what to do with the reel. Guess I got dev's tunnel vision with that feature. Thanks for compliments on sound design as well :)
I feel kinda cursed after playing this.
Cursed in a this fits the spooky theme of the jam way or cursed in a bad way? I'll hope for the former haha
(Question: What's the button for reeling it in?)
There's no button for it. Grab the handle on the reel that appears and crank it clockwise :)
Thank you! I don't know why I couldn't get it to work the first time I tried clicking on it. This was really spooky and memorable. It reminds me of why I don't like to fish.
Aw I'm glad to hear you had a good time with how simple a game it was!
