Age of Aquaria by mahalis
If you were a fish on a desert planet, how would you get from one place to another?
Right—you wouldn’t. Not without help! Age of Aquaria is a game about helping fish.


Pick up aquaria and deliver them to their destination. Careful, though: the terrain is rough and you have no arms.
This is my 13th LD entry. Tools used: - Unreal Engine (everything) - Cinema 4D (most models, UI art) - Houdini (rocks) - Substance Designer (textures) - GarageBand (sounds)

In the Zip file for Windows, I think you have included much more than you need if you only want to distribute what is needed to run the game. The LD46 folder is not needed, and removing it would save you 740MB before compression.
with a little more polish (even just ambient noise and sfx, camera action, and detail in the environment), i think this could be a really charming game. the basic idea of it is good and fun. nice work!
Nice one! The graphics are great (simple yet very effective 3D), and the idea is fun if a bit hard to master. I managed to always get a least one fish in every stage (including a finish a couple of seconds before the timer ran out).
A fun ride, I would have love a bit more audio and I feel it is hard to predict how the fishes will move. But overall, a nice game, congrats!
I could delivery fish to the goal and made it to stage 3. I delivered two fish to the goal but could not go on?
Is one fish not actually enough?
Other than that, solid presentation. I also found it irritating, that the robot would look at be instead of the other way ;)
