Couldn't find any Dutch people for the life of me, but that was fun! Nice music, good sound effects, clean graphics. AI pathing is a little funky, but that's no big deal. Well done!

After having no more missions to do and 38600 points, my only question is: Why don't the Jamaicans run faster?
Great job, guys!

The tutorial fish was really annoying, just let me play the game already! The time limit also takes away from the game, not sure if its needed. The core mechanic is pretty fun, and the fish look is awesome :)

Very funny game, I liked the humor, and I enjoyed the gameplay. The art, sound effects and music were also good. The gameplay does get a bit repetitive after a while since the difficulty doesn't increase, but that is understandable for a jam game.

Great job overall.

lol this is amazing! Hilarious game with great graphics and sound. Surprisingly polished for such a limited time frame. I really enjoyed playing it. I found the tutorial a bit intrusive in that it obscures the whole game view but the gameplay experience is still top notch. You guys crushed it!

Hahahaha i loved your game man :D So hilarious, especially the voice when you select a weapon.
"Potato"

The lore is definitely good for a real game. Would love to see a game about a Fish "humaning" People to feed his family.

Music suit the game very well, and characters are hilarious

I gave out a 4/5
You miss the point because i got stucked in a bug where i had no weapon and no money at first playthough

@yscik I did that to force the player to read all the tutorial, avoiding questions about how to proceed with the game. Sorry if that bothered you 😅. Thanks for playing my game :D !

@avon Yes, I thought the same, that's why we've added the missions, trying to get the game less repetitive, but tham , actually it not changed anything hahahah Thanks for playing our game !

@gaze-team Thanks, Sorry about that Issue, I'll be fixing this faster as I can ;D

@balance686 Thanks for playing my game :D ! Actually, we've post it unfinished, only with the mechanics working so everybody can play it. And one day later we finished, adding scenario and fixing some bugs.

@theamazingb Thanks. Sure I will ;D

@fidrik HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. Thanks for playing my game

I laughed too much playing this! Good job guys, it was a lot of work for a game jam. The game seems very polished too.

Fun idea and nicely executed game! I had couple of problems with it though. You could have shown player what russian looks like or hints what they would look like. I managed to play until I was supposed to find “indians”, and none of them looked the part for me. Tutorial was too slow, way too slow. Water was running out at the same time and you could play with the tutorial on the screen. One screen could have been enough, as this isn’t overly complicated game. Graphics are good most part. As you said this is unfinished, some look really rushed too. Loved the human characters. Music and sounds fitted the theme very well.

Haha, nicely done! As a french guy, I must say I couldn't resist someone throwing a baguette from a rooftop. Even if that someone is a fish!
Congrats for having a bunch of working features in there, and tutorial, wow!

OK so this game cracked me up and for having so many ppl walking around without my PC lagging and without crashing, this is pretty impressive! There are a fez flaws I'd like to discuss
-why is it not possible to dismiss the tutorial fish on the left side of the screen ^^#? It's like you gotta wait for 5 minutes for the fucker to go away, it's so annoying ^^#
-the shooting mechanics are really hard! It's slow, both the shooting AND waiting for your harpoon to come back AND I'm pretty sure it shoots somewhere on the left of where you aim... way too hard!
Same with the bonuses to attract the preys you're trying to get (like the russians): they appear in the middle of the screen where you threw your thing to attract them, then they immediately start walking off somewhere! Can't they stay in one place for like... 5 seconds ^^#?
There's a lot of fine tuning for you guys to do if you're motivated, but in the meantime, this game entertained me and made me giggle [except for the tutorial fish, I really wanna murder that guy now :-> ^^#] so good job and thanks for sharing, good work guys :-D
