Sorry. I think I have too many tabs open or something but I'm unwilling to close them. :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I really like the graphics and music. They create a sort of cool atmosphere. However, I think that it simply isn't very engaging - there isn't really a lot going on. I'm afraid I didn't beat the first generation because with the added lag its a little too slow to really bear.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>From what I can see, really, the only real problem is that there isn't a whole lot of variety in the gameplay. As I said, I never got past the first level, so I am probably missing out on at least a few things. And, as stated, this is a first-time entry. If this game was packed full of content, I would certainly be very impressed. ;)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I think that this game, overall, is pretty good, especially in the concept. Fish feeding games are surprisingly fun, and this one fits the theme pretty well.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>So, TL;DR: This is a good first-entry game. ;)"},{"author_name":"lefane","author_uid":"61974","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 8:07am","epoch":1450166520,"text":"Here's the post-jam version, now that I've had time to add more enemies and tweak the trait effects.
