Thank you and goodbye!

Half an hour to go and this is the end of Ludum Dare 52. My team and me just want to say Thank you all! Thank you for participating, rating our game, posting something about yours, making this community so live. This Jam was a perfect presentation that in our life theme won't always be beautiful and easy. But we all did it! In teams and solo, using Unity and Godot, small and big projects.

See you on LD53!

BIG BIG BIG THANK YOU ALL! WE LOVE YOU!

Fail is experience

While all the jamers were polishing their games, we were still developing. This time we couldn’t finish with an 80% polished game as always. However, we are still working on this project and, of course, you can try it by yourself in our profile. Nobody promised, that game developing is easy, right? Especially jams, where all your helper are a simple word, describing a theme and a deadly timer, showing you how much time do you have before this scary deadline. What you should know is: fail is inevitable. You will fail and get up, fail and get up, in the infinity circle, one by one, but in a moment you will realise, this is the way. The best what you can do is trying again and again, asking questions, making mistakes - this is experience, this is how you grow up. And if you are in the right room - there will be support forever. So do not put your hands down, heads up and let’s go evolve.

And as always, we are so glad to be a part of a beautiful LudumDare community. Thank you all.

Bug fixes!

Hi there, this is programmer of DurkaGames speaking! Some of you players noticed a few problems in our game. So I was working hard to fix them ASAP. Here's a little changelog:

  1. Decreased size of a seal collider, now it should be fine with him;
  2. Decreased time needs to grill a fish;
  3. Increased time to broke a generator (it's broking randomly, so i just increased a minimum amount of time);
  4. Fixed colliders of a fishing rod and a generator, now this mini-game should work fine and should appear from the first click;
  5. Added a new hook on the cieling as a little hint that hooks are interactable objects!

(Audio still in the process of fixing, i'm very sorry)

ITCH.IO

Little tip: if there's no cutscene in Web-version and you see just a black screen you should play a downloadable version of the game. Probably, it's because of compression settings, idk.

Hooky Fish – Into the Depths

🎣 Hooky Fish – Our Ludum Dare 57 Entry!

Into the Depths We Go! 🐟

👉 Play Here!

🧠 The Theme: "Depths"

We dove straight into the idea—literally! You play as a fisherman dropping your line deeper and deeper into the ocean, hunting for the elusive angler fish lurking in the darkest corners of the sea.

🎮 About the Game

You’re not just fishing — you’re on a mission. Start small, sell your catches, and upgrade your gear to reach even deeper. Avoid dangerous obstacles, reel in what you can, and keep your eyes on the prize: the mysterious angler fish that’s said to live in the abyss.

⚙️ Features

🎯 Goal-driven progression: Catch and sell fish to upgrade your rod

🐟 Fish variety: Each catch brings you closer to the final goal

🛠️ Upgrades: Boost your strength, hook speed, and price for selling

🌌 A journey into the deep: The further you go, the darker (and stranger) it gets...

💡 What Went Well

The gameplay loop turned out really addictive (we couldn’t stop playtesting!)

Visual feedback and upgrades felt satisfying and motivating

We managed to get in a proper start-to-finish loop with a clear objective

🙌 Thanks for checking it out!

We had an awesome time making this one and seeing what everyone else came up with. If you give it a go, we’d love to hear your thoughts and try your game too!

Happy jamming! 🐠

Interesting facts

In our game, you play as a fisherman, whose goal is to catch anglerfish!

Play now!

We have collected some interesting facts about these creatures that you might not know.

Bioluminescent Lure: The anglerfish is famous for its bioluminescent lure, which is a modified dorsal fin that emits light. This irresistible glow attracts prey in the dark depths of the ocean, making it easier for the anglerfish to catch its food.

Males and females: In many anglerfish species, males and females are drastically different in size. Males are much smaller than females and often fuse to the female’s body, allowing them to access her nutrients while.

Deep-Sea Habitat: Anglerfish are primarily found in the deep-sea environments, often at depths of 200 meters (656 feet) or more. They are well adapted to this dark habitat, relying on their lure and excellent ability to detect movement in the water.

Diverse Species: There are over 200 species of anglerfish, each with unique characteristics. Some have incredibly elongated bodies and others display vibrant colors or unusual shapes, making them one of the most diverse groups of fish in the ocean.

Adaptations for Survival: Anglerfish have developed fascinating adaptations for survival in the deep sea. Some species can expand their stomachs to accommodate large prey and can go for long periods without eating, making them highly efficient predators in their challenging environment.

These features contribute to the anglerfish's status as one of the most intriguing and bizarre creatures in the ocean!

And, we have a simple question. Why do you guys rate 1-2 categories and leave other unrated? That's so strange to see every jam.
