Definitely a good game to play if you are having a bad day! I love the classic underdog story of the fish.

I like the fish designs, and the music slaps.

The design is cute and the music is nice! I'd maybe make the level scrolling down a little faster and add more incentive to punch those darn fishes!

Love the expressions that they make when you punch them, very funny. It's an adorable and funny game. Good job.

Doesn't seem to be working on my Mac, says that I don't have permission to open the application.

This was cute! The movement confused me a bit at first when the fish started pointing up or down, but I figured it out eventually. I would like to have seen some more challenge in the game, but going for points was pretty relaxing. Nice work!

While I usually don't support fish on fish violence, this is an exception, the fish feels kinda sluggish to control but otherwise it's a funny game with a groovy tune!

I absolutely loved this game! The music felt nice, the punches felt satisfying, the diversity of fish was amazing, the animation of the fishes eyes changing with each punch was hilarious. My only tiny critique is that it would be nice to have some point or combo thresholds that I was rewarded for, even with just a pop up or sound saying good job, 100x combo or something like that. Such a fun game!

Firstly, I can confirm that the Linux build works. The game has really nice graphics and great music. Gameplay could use some variety and imo the game could be a bit shorter, but overall it's quite fun.
Also, I dig the ending, and the fish guide in the menu is a GREAT addition, I loved it.

Lol that was a lot more fun than I was anticipating. The music was nice, there's was something fun in a dumb way about just punching a bunch of fish and stunlocking some bois together for some sweet combos. As soon as I saw the end I predicted what it'd be, and it was exactly what I hoped for. Well done!

I super love the pixel art and the concept made me laugh, my only gripe is that the controls felt a little sluggish but I could ignore it because I'd swim along and just start punching another fish

Love the art, the scenario, the music. It all feels like a goofy Warioware game in the best way. Well done!

Oh yeaaaah! I didn't think it would be fun punch some fishes! It's a simple game but it's fun! I think if the game was longer it would be boring. And I loved music! Good job guys! If you can play our game I'll be happy! :tropical_fish:

The other fish looking so innocent and not fighting back made it tough to believe they were making fun of you. :P The ending made it all worth it regardless- great job! :D

What a fun little game! There's litteraly nothing to possibly be upset about here. I loved everything from the art to the sounds to the infinitely inflating combo! Never had I had so much fun beating up such innocent looking fish. And the ending was just too good, absolutely lovely. Great work!

I played it on stream here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1017517813 starting at about 1:03:30 ish
