Lovely concept. Great execution. Nice seeing a different interpretation of the fishing game.
The only problem I encountered is that you can drag a specimen from the tray to where the buttons are and it doesn't fall in the water and there's no way to move it from there. This means the tray can't be emptied and you're stuck.
Thank you for the lovely comment and giving my game a try :) And thanks for mentioning the problem you encountered too! Sorry about that, I'll make sure to fix that up :)
Oh wow, this is incredible! I love the detailed pixel art combined with a more muted color palette. I like how you can dredge up debris and small vertebrates as well. This is such a clever interpretation of the prompt and a unique experience.
The sound design also really stands out to me; I think you did a great job selecting immersive ambience and effects that mesh well with the relaxing gameplay.
And of course, I love the Invertebrate Index! Finding all the creatures is definitely my favorite part about fishing games as well. :) I played yours until I stopped finding new creatures. I wasn't able to find any waterboatmen, freshwater amphipods, or planarian worms. Are these the invertebrates you have yet to add?
Really excellent all around, I will definitely keep an eye out for any updates to this project. :)
This is such a lovely comment! Thank you!! I'm really glad you enjoyed the game. This was my first time adding sound to a game so I'm happy to hear that it was effective. And well done for finding all the creatures! Yes, the waterboatmen, freshwater amphipods, and planarian worms haven't been added just yet, and I aim to add even more :)
