Very relaxing, and has a slight challenge to it. With some improved graphics it could be a very nice game. Good entry

I like the atmosphere, it's definitely very soothing. Pretty unique gameplay concept and some clever challenges with the different fish combinations.

Relax mode would make a great screen saver!

Thanks all for nice response. This entry isn't complete game as is but for me it was very relaxing to make this stuff. Especially first in-game music attempts. :)

Good luck all and peace! ☮

I think this is the type of games a kid would love to play. Easy to master, colorful and with plenty of things to see.

A little short but generally well thought out and executed. :)

Nice and relaxing game. It would be cool if you only had a limited number of shots available to get the pictures. And good to see some support for Ukraine :-).

Great mood, strong simple concept, nice music. Well done!

Liked it, kind of like a fishing game without hurting the fish!

Also interesting to see there is a java port of flixel that I didn't know about.

I have already ported this to flash (with haxe), but it has some small issues :(

pretty darn ambient, the photography mechanic felt a little off at times but it was definitely an interesting jaunt. Good job mate :).

Great game, original mechanic with nice relaxing music. Good gameplay, but it ends fast, right when things started to get complicated :D

Interactive aquarium, I like! Simple and soothing, takes me back to when lil' kid frogcheese got an aquarium of his own.

Cool game! Nice music. A little sound effect for when you snap a picture would have been a satisfying addition.
