Very nice! The two kinds of stars look very similar though.

It took me a while before I realised what the difference was between both types of stars. Once I did, the game was a lot more fun.
Very cute entry overall, congratulations! :)

Takes a while to get hold of the controls, but it gets fun after that. Nice job.

I really like the style and the mood of the game. I just wish there was some other kind of help to see the bad stars or the constellations. Maybe quickly flash of the constellations. Overall very cute game! :D

Cute game! But yes, my eyes had some trouble seeing which stars were good and bad, and I kept eating bad ones by mistake while I was squinting. Nice mood, and great graphics!

It took me a while also to understand the difference between the stars, but I think that the choice to be hard to notice between them even with the zoom was made on purpose, but it is still a little hard to avoid bad stars sometimes, you could replace a lost heart when the player complete a constellation to help and reward him just a tiny bit. But I liked it =)

Adorable game! I love the absurdity of the concept, and it was very well executed. I spent most of my time swimming in circles while I identified the stars that were safe for my fish to eat.

very nice game.. took some time to spot the differences on such a small window, but then it was really fun to uncover the images.. had fun, good job

This was super cute and a really nice environment to swim around in. I wish there was more of a visual indicator between the different stars as sometimes the frown was hard to tell apart from the smile. The magnifier glass was a really nice mechanic and added a bit of difficulty having to control that in addition to making sure your fish didn't run into any bad stars. Beautiful aesthetic. Nice job!

Really great! The magnifying glass mechanic is really cool and gives a lot of a challenge to the game. Very nice graphics and the theme was incredibly well done. Great job!
