It's a very interesting concept. I was half expecting some kind of Cthulu-esque monster to be dragged out of the depths. The downside is, the game is a bit buggy and the controls are rather awkward. It's also very difficult to catch the "fish" when they are flailing about and the bar runs out quickly. Other than that, it's good. I like it.
Thank you! The game is Lovecraft-inspired, tho I (as the art director) tried to go for a more creepy alone at sea slowly descending into madness kinda feel thats very present in Lovecrafts work (instead of the eldrich monsters lurking in deep waters part of his work) as for the controls - were aware the controls are a little akward, but the game was made as a challenge in 2 weeks so we feel it would be wrong to go back in and fix stuff. thank you for your feedback!
Absolutely terrible and infuriating. Imagine trying to press a button that's 100 feet away with a pole made of drinking straws. I'm sure dev will pull some "git gud" kind of answer, but seriously.. I didn't bother finishing it because of how frustratingly sensitive the fishing mechanic is. Ice physics with input delay on a cursor? Just plain bad.
Playing again, I managed to catch all the "fish" and even one that I had always been unable to catch. I was impressed with what it was and I think it may have a connection to the game's plot. NO MISSINGS + SECRET.
i lowkey had a hard time getting the fishing in this game, but i loved how weird it was. It was really weird and creepy. i liked it tho. i played it at 7:30
This game was creepy. The fish were a little hard to catch. I wished I had to hold down a button to reel the fish in though or something of the sort cause the action of fishing was a little boring and sometimes annoying. Story was interesting but wish I could understand the poem better. I'm not great at decoding those types of things. The game was alright. I wish maybe there was a little more spooks.
This game was really good and well made I enjoyed it a lot I was always terrified of the deep blue sea so this game really had it in for that it was really good and well made good job and cant wait to see what else you create!

I loved the creepy ambience and atmosphere and the mystery that I tried to work out with each catch and how things changed as catches were made.
