On my first attempt, I pushed a fish off into the void while I was getting acclimated to the controls, so I had to restart, but I appreciated the excuse to play again!
Ooh, I'm not patient enough today to get more than 16 fish! But the visuals of this game are so lovely. I love how the clouds look and the movement feels so distinctive and fluid. It's a really cool achievement that this 2D game feels vertiginous in movement!! It naturally leads you to trust your movement skills more, lean into the speed and leaps and physics of it while enjoying the stomach-dropping moments of flight. Awesome. Just watching the little character negotiate the beautiful clouds is a game of itself.
Hey! This game was really amazing!
I collected all the fish/stars (at a relatively slow pace probably : 9:32.7)
I really liked the movement and the camera; everything felt really smooth and satisfying!
The art, especially that gorgeous background, as well as all the other sprites too honestly, I really liked, the game looks incredibly beautiful.
Furthermore, the addition of a fish counter and your time felt really fun; I was really encouraged to move quickly through the map which felt amazing!
The fish catching was really fun, though sometimes actually aiming it at the fish felt a little awkward; but that's a very minor problem.
I also fell down a lot and while at first I didn't like that you sometimes respawned much lower down than you were before falling, I actually think it works pretty well for a game like this because the map isn't super huge and you don't have to redo all that much. Plus you get to experience more of that juicy movement!
Overall; I had a really great time with this game!
Great job!!! <3
second try, 1:33.6
nice and cozy vibes + i like the camera movement
in my first run, i didn’t realize i could just keep refreshing dash while in water + fell off from a higher part into a lower part while freefalling.. so i got respawned back down
