I very much like the idea. It's a very hard game and I couldn't clear it, but it is a very neat concept!

Perfect for french people, right now :P

wonderful, i don't clear it but very nice idea !!

Tres cool, love the idea. I died on about 20 and it's a bit slow so I didn't replay, but I really like the concept.

A few notes:
- It would be nice if the different animal types had very different controls/movement styles
- it's a bit too hard to do things 'properly' and a bit too easy to just wait for everyone to go home to enter the area. maybe a different kind of time limit (say, each fish has 30 seconds to vote) to try to force the player to think strategically would be useful
- Great art, love the idea of a aquarium election for some reason.

Good job :)

The idea is fun, but after 10 votes or so it's getting a bit tedious.

vraiment marrant concept a creuser!! avec des niveaux,des paysages differents,et pourquoi pas des boss?

I really like the concept and most of the execution. My only critique is that giving limited tries is not a good decision here. Make it more of a race instead, so that most players can complete it without having to redo the first animals over and over but the best can compete on time left.

I also think that the time limit should be the time from start to vote - not the time overall. I.e. reset it for every animal. This would give the player a better idea if they can wait for the previous animals to pass or if they have to squeeze it in

Agree with you @rialgar and @stoogebag I will change the timer and try system in a next version. I will also add simplier levels to help people understanding the concept. Thank you all for your feedbacks

underwater games for the win! :D Great job!

Wow, really clever idea!

I'd try and make the animals start over the voting process after returning home, or maybe after a certain amount of time has passed - it is a bit too easy / boring to just wait until every animal is finished before doing the next one.

I like the music as well.

This was a really clever/unique idea; I really liked it. I'll admit I didn't beat it, but I did get to 9 or 10 votes before dying.

I'll agree with others that the limited number of ballots kinda made it harder - starting over is painful. It'd be super fun to have people race on this, and have to come up with more efficient ways to combine them to compete. Having a few levels with different numbers of fish also would have been cool.

All that said, given the time limit for the compo, this is great! Well done.

Awesome idea! I also love the graphics, and the sound, but the music was straining my nerves a bit after some time. The overall task to have all this animals voting is a bit too large in my opinion, I would have prefered shorter levels with fewer animals which you have to sole until you go to the next level.

Wow, this is a real cool concept! Its awesome how you are your own enemy, and when you take a hit you curse at yourself for taking a stupid route in the past :p. Excellent game, nicely polished and also fun, so congrats!

gros gros kiff !
really enjoying game !!
clap clap clap !

Fantastic original idea! Awesome gameplay too!

This was fun! At first I was kind of confused by what was happening but once I got the hang of it, i started planning and predicting difficulty.

I think this is worth polishing up a bit!

Music was a little repetitive and the SFX were a little harsh. But hey, 48hours and you actually managed to get a whole game in with sound! That's pretty incredible.

Wow, super creative! And decidedly challenging! I was hitting a performance issue with so many moving after 10+, but other than that, great job!

Sorry about your Girlfriend being upset due to our game ;-)
I hope at least you had some fun... I rated your game... Wow... congratulations... looks awesome and I really had to laugh because of the french election link.

Really nice game! I got 100 as best score and that was really tricky. The combination of needing to be quick and cut corners while absolutely not colliding with everyone. That was a very well balanced challenge. One thing that would elevate the game some more with regards to game-play would be if each species had slightly different swimming properties. Not only shapes. The music could also have been a bit less repetitive or at least put at lower volume to ad some more sounds of swimming of perhaps better, voting.

This game is really fun, but really hard aswell. I love the concept.

Only thing I did not like was the music, it got a bit annoying after a while.

Awesome concept! I like the fact that your own playstyle determines the difficulty, but I wonder if it can be exploited by having each fish wait for enough time to ensure all previous fish have returned or at least left a clear path (I didn't try this myself, played fair and lost miserably :expressionless:). Having each type of fish move slightly differently was a nice touch as well, and the setting is hilarious :D

There are some improvements to be made with audio, but considering this is a compo game and the amount you may have put on the main mechanic and graphics the entry feels pretty solid overall.

Great job!

PS: Yay Haxe! :thumbsup:

Oh i love this mechanic! I wasn't quite sure what you were going for at first, but when the previous animals started moving it clicked, and it's such a clever idea! When you deliver a few votes it's super satisfying to watch all the animals move on their own without ever touching each other. My only complaint is that one of the shrimp spawned directly on top of some seaweed and i instantly lost a couple of votes because of that, but i had a really fun time while it lasted. Great work!

I wonder if this is how current politics work... Great work guys! Really enjoyed it.

Thank you all for your feedbacks, you are right on all the bad points. And yes @nightshadow0 this is a bad place for this shrimp, i totally agree, i lost a life directly and i was upset. I didn't had external feedbacks when i worded on this game, but i played it the next day and i saw a lot of mistakes i have made. But this was too late :) I will continue this work, taking care of all your advices : new animals, new behaviors, levels. Sounds where made programmaticly (dunno if this word exists, corrector is underlining the word...It gives me nothing nice as correction :smile: ) best graphics and sound ( if i find someone ) I will also make some windows and android builds. I need to take some time to make a class to record virtual pad inputs for mobile systems. Thank you again

Interesting game! It was pretty hard for me, but I managed to beat it with 135 time remaining and score of 260. The sea anemones could look more dangerous though, I ran into them a couple times before I realized what was going on! I would've liked to see the entire screen of animals walking around to vote at the end, but that's more of a polish feature. Found it interesting how different animals had different speeds and sizes. Could be interesting to experiment with different paths and obstacles. I think general strategy is to just wait until it's safe. Since there were so many animals there's one side of me that wanted to see what path they would all take back (strategizing and playing it safe), but there's also one side that is more reactive and wonders if I could go in and make it (though I think the controls would need to designed for that). Perhaps that could be present in the different creatures you control. Good job!

Best game ever !
