Master Baiting, is a simple calm fishing game. Cast your bait (hook) and wait for a fish to bite. Follow the on-screen mouse button pattern to reel in your fish. The game is won, after you have reeled in all of the fish.

INSTRUCTIONS:

[Left Click] in the water to cast your line and the pointer.

[Right Click] after your line is cast, you can right click to reel in your hook.

After your hook is in the water just sit back and relax, until a fish chomps down on your sharp little hook.

After you have hooked a fish, follow the pattern of left and right clicking displayed on the screen to reel in the fish.

The audio is what makes this. Well designed and gives a nice calm mood.

I am finding myself partial to a bit of master baiting.

Sound is very nice. Game is pretty fun too! Name is brilliant, you should consider going for humor just for the title. Got an error though:

Sorry about the error. It happens if you try to Reel in your hook before the fish bites. If you just leave the hook sitting in the water until a fish bites. An icon of left or right mouse button will appear, try to repeat the pattern tr reel in the fish.

Very soothing soundtrack and interesting gameplay choice. To me the throwing animation took a tad too long and I didn't catch much fish because I never knew what I did wrong...

Prejudging by the name, this was surprisingly soothing. Casting lines out to the relaxing piano score is wonderfully pleasant. And, best of all, I can finally have my revenge against those damn Cheep-cheeps. Aaaah. Feel the relaxation wash over you.

That was quite relaxing. Except I hoped I could button-mash my wait to victory like usual in these games, but oh well :P

Humor +1 for title.

I feel so relaxed after playing this. PS: I am in Nirvana right now.

The audio fits perfectly. The game isn't that bad, but it gives me the sensation that it lacks something important that would make it awesome. I think it's a bit of challenge, overall.

I like the fact that it uses cheep-cheeps. It's sorta simple but pretty charming.
