Mourning Tide

Takže... Odehráno za 10 min, a jsem docela ohromen, musím napsat opravdu dobrá práce! Nevím  co tu lidi brečí že je to moc těžký a frustrující xD recenze mi moc psát nejdou ale na tohle musím zareagovat prostě, cením hlavně originalitu co hra nabízí protože sem tohle nikdy u žádné jiné hry nezažil takže za mě 10/10 :)  A určitě se budu těšit na vaše další projekty.

amazing concept, i only wish i could finish it. last couple of fish are just too hard to catch, i lost the will to keep trying when no matter what i did, it would just randomly fly outside the circle, and the meter would just drop. any progress i made was instantly gone and i was left even further than where i was over something i had absolutely no control over. i love the concept, as i said. but where it stands, i dont want to spend the next half hour or longer just hoping the game allows me the good luck to catch them. sorry i couldnt finish it.

No spoilers about what happens in the game, only comments on mechanics:

I was really enjoying the game and thought it was a creepy yet fun experience where I'm fishing in a cursed ocean. But my enjoyment turned to rage when I started attempting to catch the last fish. I was trying for 30 minutes and could not manage to catch it. I tried anticipating the moments where it will just randomly shoot out into a random direction, I tried just moving my mouse in circles, I tried everything and I could not catch the last fish. I think this game is a great experience up until that fish.

The two solutions I can think of to fix it is to one, just make its movements less erratic and easier to anticipate or two, lower the rate at which the meter decreases while the fish is out of the circle. I felt that the fish would just shoot really far out of the circle at random and I wouldn't have enough time to get it all the way back in because the meter would decrease so fast. This game was super cool but I feel like it's a bad sign when a horror game turns from fascination and fear to frustration.

I'm sorry if I seem so harsh with the last fish I do not intend to bash you as a developer in anyway because I truly did enjoy this game and its aesthetic a whole boat load (pun intended). The fish designs and the sounds they made when I caught them really freaked me out. The changes in the ocean as I caught more fish was another really good, unsettling detail. You made a real good horror experience, but that last fish was just way too difficult. That is my only criticism. 

Aesthetics and sound design really nice. I think it's an interesting idea that just doesn't have enough development in it. Having a poem at the end in silence to put context for everything kind of dampened on the storytelling for me. Also the final fish is a little too obnoxious to catch for my taste. I know its meant to be on purpose I imagine, but I think the pacing and mood is a bit shifted when spending so long on the fish.

I think for the short time it had in development it's really neat!

Trash of game I don't have much to say 0/10

such a beautiful game

Still one of my favourite games in here
