I'm going to take out my emotional issues on these fish. I'm going to unsustainably work out my troubles. Each fish I pull up is a weight off my mind.

but Ice fishing alone just doesn't seem right.

EDIT: it wasn't clear but You only control the side to side motion of the hook and it's speed. It moves up and down on it's own.

I was smiling the whole time. Your art is charming, the sounds work great, and the gameplay is clever. Two thumbs up

I LOVE the art in this! The gameplay is also unique yet simple! My only complaint is that it can be next to impossible to reel em' in sometimes!

Very cute art and cool mechanics (a little difficult to control the hook though, had to spam up and left, which seems unintuitive). No bugs that I could see :) HOW DOES SHE SEE SO WELL UNDER THE ICE THO?

I really enjoyed this one. As CaptainKraft and FuzzyWuzzie said before, the art is great.

This was really enjoyable. It was strangely relaxing haha. This would probably make a really fun mobile game where you tilt to move your hook. Anyways, great work :)

That was good, but its getting boring pretty quick. Have to have more things as you progress.

A simple game, but still very entertaining. Makes me happy!

Very cute! It's really a lot of fun to play. You can subvert the speed of it falling by holding left or right and having the hook cling to the wall until you're ready to move it. Not sure if this is intentional.

Tricky at first but cool once you get the hang of it. I first wanted music as well, but then realized that it feels much more lonely without it (which in this case, works well).

At first the controls felt really weird, but once I got used to it the game gets very challenging. good job!

Nice one!

Took me a second to read your rules and realize that moving up and down was not controlled by me. The gameplay is pretty clever, but aged a bit poorly once I was a few levels in. The art is amazing as always!

33. Wow, that was both significantly more challenging and a lot more fun than I was expecting from a drop-the-hook fishing game. Very cool!
