Hello! We are looking for a contact email to offer to bring this game to Nintendo Switch!! Could you please provide us with an email address? Thanks!!!
I enjoy fishing in games. Its one of my favorite things to waste time on so when I saw this game of course I was interested :) The fishing mechanics drove me crazy but the uneasiness of the environment and the surprise of what creepy thing id be catching next made it worth playing . The ending was very deep and I think works really well . Very nice little game !
really enjoyed the unique concept here and the visuals were brilliant not gonna lie i almost rage quit because of the fishing mechanic felt there could of been a little more control when trying to catch the fish but all in super fun little game was there more than one ending?
The concept is cool but I feel like there was too little before the poem at the end to really give you an idea of what the fisher's guilt may have been and then the poem spelt it out too clearly imo
hi, thanks for the feedback! were fully aware of this but as it was a challenge to make a game in 2 weeks we sadly didnt have time to add more lore :( there were plans of adding items you fish out like a wedding ring or some flowers, but there was no time to implement them :(
Close! That is actually a 3d model of a stingray with a face on its back we made for our game, it has many meanings and interpretations but Steve Irwin's death was not supposed to be one of them.
I had some troubles with fishing itself (but I was never born to hunt for my own food, I admit) but absolutely love how the environment grows more sinister, together with the audio, it was so effective and something I don’t see often in shorter indie games.
I know that other things were the main focus but the way the sea and the sky progressed was my favourite part, it was so gorgeous and scary.
Thanks a lot! My main focus as the art director was precisely that! Ithink we as a team paid a lot of attention to the slow progression and escalation of the atmosphere :D
It really showed. Also, one of my viewers (Capybaraforge, who I also mention in the video because the game reminded me a little of his work which I adore) was absolutely amazed by the game.
This game was "deep" without any puns. A perfect example of how your maddened mind can shift your reality into madness in a saddening manner. 5/5 stars!
The difficulty is a part of the game, we feel like it adds to the atmosphere. Its also very individual as a few people said they found the game eazy. Better luck next time, we wish you peaceful waters! :)
I understand it gets a little hard but i discussed it with our programmer and sadly it would be too hard to fix (hes busy with another project right now) so it will have to stay this way for now. thanks a lot for the feedback, i hope i didnt seem mean in my previous reply.
No worries at all! I just dont know if it was as very few individuals haha! Great work though! Keep it up! I was just not destined to catch the fish haha! :)
This was surprisingly creepy and quite intriguing to play! I had a lot of fun being tense, the fishing was challenging but not too frustrating, and I did enjoy it. Good length of time and definitely worth playing.
Keep up the good work, hope you guys keep on making games!
I definitely felt the Lovecraftian vibes from this one. Some of the fish were a bit tough to catch, but it was a really awesome game for being made in only two weeks!
awesome game, the creature desings were really original and scary. Aesthetic and art kinda reminds me of the director Karl Zeman, overall really cool game. Ďekuji za přečtení :)
this is one of the best atmospheres i've seen in a retro ps1 horror game. so great. fishing gameplay made me wanna commit crimes tho. this game has inspired me thank you so much for making it <3
in the end, it took me awhile to beat XD again, i really like the style! i just don't think the difficulty serves the game very well
the fish swing around a LOT when you try to catch them, i can see that they're meant to be heavy and horrific, but i had a scenario where a fish immediately swung far away and out of the circle which lead to an almost immediate failure. there are many scenarios like this that are luck-based, as opposed to skill-based, which is why i think a decent amount of players seem to be dropping the game mid-way through. sorry for the long post!! i hope you can make more wonderful lovecraftian-esque games in the future! ^w^

That's fair, really cool what you guys made in that time!
That’s literally the Stingray that killed Steve Irwin.
Close! That is actually a 3d model of a stingray with a face on its back we made for our game, it has many meanings and interpretations but Steve Irwin's death was not supposed to be one of them.
Yes, this is him.
thanks a lot for making a video on our game, I look forward to watching it! and thank you for appreciating the designs!
thank you for making a letsplay of our game!
Aside the...machinic of the fish it was fun and eerie..
what did you not like about the fishing?
I had some troubles with fishing itself (but I was never born to hunt for my own food, I admit) but absolutely love how the environment grows more sinister, together with the audio, it was so effective and something I don’t see often in shorter indie games.

Thats absolutely crazy to me! again, thanks a lot to both you and him :)
IT'S A BIG ONE!!
BIG thanks for making the letsplay :D
the pleasure is all mine! great job on creating this great game!
looking forward to seeing more of your work.
This game was "deep" without any puns.
A perfect example of how your maddened mind can shift your reality into madness in a saddening manner. 5/5 stars!
Its the second game in my video.
thank you! glad the message of the game is easy to read, showing that descend into madness was one of our goals!
Great horror game. Really interesting.
thank you for making a vid about out game :)
Magnifico juego me encanto
thank u for making a video on our game!
Thank you for making a video on our game :)
Got annoyed with the fifth fish or so and quit. Make them less tedious to catch
The difficulty is a part of the game, we feel like it adds to the atmosphere. Its also very individual as a few people said they found the game eazy. Better luck next time, we wish you peaceful waters! :)
It defo gets too hard I had to as well. It is genuine feedback. Shame though was really liking it! :)

A good fishing horror game. I especially loved the poem in the end. Good luck with what you have next.
Glad you liked the poem, a little funfact: it was written by our producer Maru ! :D
Glad you picked up on the Lovecraftian vibe, that was exactly what I intended! Thanks a lot for making a video on our little game! :)
:)

love the aesthetics but these fish really gave me a beating trying to catch them lol </3
in the end, it took me awhile to beat XD again, i really like the style! i just don't think the difficulty serves the game very well
