You are a telekinetic goldfish, finally realizing your dream of performing at the aquarium.

First Ludum Dare entry and my first time doing a game-jam-type thing solo. I think it’s gone well; the idea was simple so once it was working there was a lot of time to polish things. I hope you enjoy playing it.

(Messed up the permissions on the download at first—should work now, sorry about that!)

Yep, can't access it either.

colludium8 Dec 2014, 03:41

The Windows link doesn't work.

ENDESGA8 Dec 2014, 03:46

You might wanna fix the link bruh :)
I'll play it when I can get it

stevehb8 Dec 2014, 03:46

Sorry, everyone - should be fixed now.

This was one of the games I saw a post for during development and had to favourite the artist so I could play it!

gamedevBear8 Dec 2014, 04:59

Fun concept, after getting the hang of controlling the bowl

Rundrop8 Dec 2014, 05:21

I've been waiting and looking at every update! And it is just as fun as it looked! Really addicting too. It could use some music or somthing though. Also alot of the time it was hard to know where she was going to go. But love the art and the game.

Fish doesn't fall out of bowl zero out of ten

mahalisauthor8 Dec 2014, 05:53

Nor does the water. Telekinesis! :)

(in seriousness, I did consider at least making her slosh around inside the bowl, but didn’t get around to it)

raincole8 Dec 2014, 07:25

The link works for me.
Simple and fun(and funny).

Aisland8 Dec 2014, 07:27

The graphic looks comfortable, easy to play and hard to get more score.

Gread728 Dec 2014, 07:56

Looks great ... Fun and flight bound ...

ManuSaiz8 Dec 2014, 16:34

Pretty fun at the start, could use another mechanic for a grat result, because that core is pretty addictive, congratulations :)

Fanttum8 Dec 2014, 20:16

looks cool, any chance a web version will come out?

mahalisauthor8 Dec 2014, 20:55

I’m afraid not—there’s an experimental project to run LÖVE games in JS with WebGL, but it doesn’t support the physics library which I’m using pretty heavily here.

stalker15869 Dec 2014, 06:22

cool game, you should give it some advantage and sell it!

purezero9 Dec 2014, 06:27

great game quite funny and good humor. I like the messages you get when you die :)

ianh9 Dec 2014, 06:30

It's fun to click as fast as you can and watch the fish tank bounce around.

UrbanLogicGames9 Dec 2014, 17:16

Took a minute or so to get used to the mechanics, but it's fun! Presentation is great and the dry delivery is spot on. Made me chuckle a good few times. :)

Elemental Zeal Games Studios9 Dec 2014, 22:28

Neat entry! Really enjoyed the end messages.

Wampus10 Dec 2014, 05:49

Well done for first time doing a game jam style thing! Mine was a disaster. Anyway, simple and plays great.

furriKira10 Dec 2014, 06:00

Weeee! Simple and great~

Aniscool910 Dec 2014, 12:57

Great game man. Nice imagination. About the difficulty level, its a type of game that hard at first but when you get used to it its pretty fun(Perfect for guy like me). An android game coming up?

PigeonsFromOuterSpace10 Dec 2014, 20:55

At first it was hard to controll but after a while it was fun to make "tricks" in air by itself :)

GarethIW11 Dec 2014, 20:31

fun :) The score seemed to be going up and down but i was not quite sure why....

BroCade11 Dec 2014, 20:39

great idea and fun!

fil00dl11 Dec 2014, 20:41

original concept

Technomancer Game Studio11 Dec 2014, 20:46

Very solid game. Nice gameplay and graphics. 10/10 ;)

mahalisauthor11 Dec 2014, 21:23

The score goes down by 2 each time you click and up by 3 when you make it through one of the hoops. I wanted to reward semi-deliberate use of your telekinesis over random clicking. :)

Praron14 Dec 2014, 20:51

Very good and nice gameplay, but i think with minimalistic graphic like this http://ludumdare.com/compo/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/ld-test-2.gif it would have looked better.

Mechatodzilla18 Dec 2014, 23:33

This entry is killer! It does so much so well. You should be really proud of this. If there had been some kind of opposing element, something on screen to avoid, or even maybe just a timer, this game would be extremely well-balanced and fun. Current version is awesome but the player has it just a little too easy. So great though. Congrats!
