It also feels like the incentives to not kill fish aren't strong enough. I managed to get pretty far without "losing" a fish to a fisher by massively depopulating the ocean and then destroying the boat. So long as I killed less than 15 fish before the fisherman, I'd come out positive. Excellent work for one day, though."},{"author_name":"MrBlade","author_uid":"23232","time":"May 6, 2013 @ 3:42pm","epoch":1367854620,"text":"Great Game! Love the graphics, feel, and humor.

In particular the shooting mechanic is awkward. I keep shooting the fish that pop up on the left. Why not move the shooter a little more towards the middle?
