Take to the lake and catch fish to fit into your oversized briefcase: using guns!  Sell them ashore to buy more guns, ammo, and upgrades. But remember:

Some things are better thrown back.

**Early jam prototype: balance and content ain't there.**

Controls

  • Arrow keys/D-Pad to navigate inventory
  • Z to grab/drop items
  • X to interact with items/return to shore

Getting Started

  • Activate your rod to begin fishing.
  • Once a fish has bite the hook, shoot your guns at them.
  • Reload by dragging matching ammo over the gun and dropping on top of it.
  • Return to port to sell your fish and purchase new items.

Very fun game so far, I enjoyed building up my cash and getting a large case.

Not being able to reel in the line manually is a bit annoying if the fish have wandered off, no need to keep a player from interacting with the rod again to bring it back.

Nicely done for a submission though, fun!

I really liked the game!!
But I got a bit frustrated because I always got the buttons wrong and discarded the fish instead of grabbing it ='(

wow, absolutely adore the graphics! and the gameplay is so funny XD
sadly the game got stuck in an infinite loop when i was selling in the shop. looking forward to trying again later when it's a bit more ironed out <3

Thanks! Ah will try to fix that one. Yes hope to continue to develop on further!
