Great entry! The sounds and dark graphics create a very nice atmosphere. The red and green lights were a bit difficult to spot as signals in the beginning, but once I noticed it the game loop was quite nive and I liked the upgrade options

You made this in 48 hours with graphics and audio?? That's really cool! And it's actually fun to play as well, good job :D.
One small critique: At the beginning I saw the red and green lights but didn't get that I could interact with them.

@timo5034 Thank you for you feedback! :3

To be honest art is pretty simple, like it's only white line and dark blue color fill

But contrast and glow makes art looks really cool

I love the art and aesthetic of this game. The glow effects are very nice. The controls are simple and intuitive. I couldn't get fullscreen to work but this is overall a really fun game!

@megurt That's smart, creates a cool vibe and is perfect for a jam! Maybe I'll do white lines + glow too in the future :D

The rock and pool, is nice and cool, so juicy sweet! Our only wish, to catch a fish, so juicy sweet

A fun game, even though the randomness is brutally unfair.

A pleasant process of collecting fish. I can do it forever

YES, ANIME! The game's visuals are amazing! The sound effects are really cool, but personally, I felt the game lacked music. As for the gameplay, I felt it lacked depth and content. If all of that had been implemented, this game would have been a phenomenal success! Excellent work!

В общем-то понравилось. По началу не замечал мины и бафы. Слишком уж сливаются с задним фоном и передними пробегающими пузырьками.
Поэтому первые 3-4 раза не мог дойди дальше первой полоски. Хотел бросить. Как заметил мины. Начал собирать рыбу и лупить по минам. Потом заметил белые мины. Начал лупить по ним. А потом случайно поймал белую мину и тут понеслось. Дойти до конца таки не получилось, но дошел до круглых рыбин.

Красивая графика

the ambiance is real cool, though I did not get how to avoid mines? :sweat_smile:

A very creative and fun game with fresh, cute visuals. The gameplay is a little on the simple side, and it would be even better if it had more strategic depth

@7uc4s you can switch between tools and cannon can blow it up before it hits you. As any object in game
so there is different interactions between harpoon and cannon

Great game! Made it to the end after some tries. Upgrades really makes the challenge far easier (not a bad thing for LD game)

One of the serious issues I wanted to underline is that the game is almost unplayable for colorblind people.

killer art style and vibes with a super fun upgrade loop and polished visuals that make for a really satisfying experience once you get into the groove

Красивая небольшая игра. Сперва думал, что иглобрюх дает топливо, и чуть не слил забег по конец :smile:

The game looks good and feels nice to play. The sounds aren’t annoying, which is definitely a plus!

Simple but challenging. I respect how the effort to make it feel polished with all the sounds, menus, tutorial etc. Good job!

BOOM FISH for FUEL !
Fun and polished game ! Good mood created by visuel and audio, it really feels like fishing in the deepest sea !

A pleasant visual style and excellent sound. The gameplay is good, though it felt a little overtuned in terms of difficulty. Still, the game really pulled me in.

Nice mood! The audio and visuals create a smooth and pleasant experience. The gameplay is solid.

Maybe clearer wording for the upgrades, or a better onboarding flow explaining the different ways to regain fuel, or a better difference between red and green signals (not just color, like a warning sign on the red) could help players understand things more quickly.

But hey, those are small details that are hard to fully polish in a 48-hour jam, so I’m only mentioning them in a constructive spirit.

Thank you for the game it was fun to play :)

A very stylish game. I really liked the art and the feel of the gameplay. The upgrades are varied enough that it’s enjoyable to start over again and again. Great work!

I managed to beat it! The upgrades felt a little unbalanced. The boost felt worthless. I just went for harpoon speed.

I really like the visual style.
