I love that in "chill" mode it's just a fishing game where I need to drive to a new fishing hole every 30 seconds or so :)

That's the idea! :) I'm trying to get in the habit of putting a "just hang out and mess around" mode in games by default.

You make it look so easy on the video and when I played it I ended up in the water like crazy xD

Really cool game!

@Rombus Haha, I've heard that a lot! I had a lot of time to get used to the controls while working on it. :) That doesn't explain my roommate though (P1 in the video) ... she's just really good at video games. :sweat_smile:

Hahaha I noticed this game since the jam began, and finally found it (ldjam.com really needs a 'wish list' feature). This little game is very funny and I can actually feel the furious! Admire your innovative mind :smile:

@wizcas Haha, thank you! I use the "follow user" feature for that, but it's imprecise at best. Glad you enjoyed. :)
