Go Fish by joekinglake

[raw]
made by joekinglake for LD34 (JAM)
Press up or down to control the school of fish.

Avoid the rock formations, which push you backwards and will eventually end your game, whilst trying to collect more fishes in hopes of increasing your school size.

Nice "tunnel nav" game, I like the movement of the fish and the graphics, especially.

Ah man this game is cute. I like the idea of collecting all the fishes! I just wish there was a shark boss!

Cute game with a nice visual art style. The game was waay too easy as the only times I hit the rocks was when I did it intentionally.

I think this is a really solid game, Everything feels really nice from the music to the way the menu wobbles.

Nice and relaxing, I wasn't sure if I could actually 'lose' or anything unless I brushed up against something for too long. 4 way movement with predators or something could be fun!

Good little game. I especially liked how the fishes have some inertia to them. The looks and the music were good too.

Nice! It's like a chilled-out, relaxing Gradius. I enjoyed the ambient music and art. It just takes you to the bottom of the ocean. Really calming to play.

Graphics are really nice and the sounds are very calm. I personally found it very easy, I don't think I lost a single fish. I like how by design, growing makes it more difficult, because navigating the tunnels becomes harder.

Cool entry, good luck :)

Cute concept, i like the relaxing mood but there's not a lot to it, would be more interesting if you lost fish when you bumped against a wall.

Great choice of theme. Too easy game, but this plus the music makes it really relaxing. So, great mood, good graphics, great use of the theme, and a bit boring mechanic. :)

3/5

Nice relaxing game with good graphics.
I was wondering if I would get my fish count at the end but didnt. Sad frog I am :<
However well thought game :)

Nice, relaxing game. I liked graphics, simple but elegant, with matching music makes great mood.
Personally i would crank up a little difficulty to make player more engaged.

Flappy fish :) Collecting a bigger flock is nice, would benefit from some flocking behaviour. Totally fits the theme.

Oh. I thought it was going to be endless. But then I won. Not complaining though, it was the right length. Very peaceful and atmospheric.

Nice relaxing game. I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/l1a-s63Ve1s

I love the motion of the fish—the up-down dance each one makes to convey the overall sense of schooling. It's very satisfying to collect more fish!

Really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere of the game. Collecting fish and watching your school grow was a rewarding experience.

Gameplay is very minimalistic, but the game itself is very polished, with pleasant graphics and fitting music. Nice, relaxing atmosphere.

Liked it - very relaxing to play. Would like to have the fish drop off if you hit the rocks and also to get a bonus for putting together a large school.

Nice game. I think it would be cool if the more fish you get the slower you all move together, so the further you go, the harder it would be to navigate.
