DESCRIPTION
At Zipley’s Museum, we pride ourselves in displaying only the best artifacts! However, there's only one treasure we are missing... the Angler's Stone.
Try, try, and try again as you loop back and explore the dark depths of the sea in search of this sacred piece. It's your turn to gear up and Go Fish!

this feels crazy polished for a jam game!! really good and atmospheric!!
I am extremely impressed by the artwork for this game, it is really beautiful. I had a bug seemingly where I couldn't use my money to upgrade my weapon, but overall had a great time playing!
Really liked this Dave the Diver meets Learn to Fly mix! The art was very nice and the music was very fitting. Had a couple bugs where the game over screen wouldn't update or show properly and I somehow got jammed in some of the geometry and unable to move. Either way it was a fun play!
The art was the standout achievement on this game, I think. Really strong work done there on the visuals, kudos to your artist!
Really great art, especially in the opening scene! Great job!
Really nice entry here ! The game feels well polished, and the ambience is good. Maybe the end is a little too hard ? But I definilty spent good time on this one. Good job !
man good game! the scaling is on point, the enemies are varied, and the ambience is well tuned
the only nit pick I can come up with is the slight lack of juice but it's really not a great deal
good stuff
goat:D
Very relaxing game for me. Great art - I loved it. And I loved the shadows from the torch - how the light partly goes trough rocks and you san see part of the terrain. I stayed longer to play as well.
This is the game I've spent the most time on so far, and I still couldn't beat it. I did get softlocked in some rocks and had to restart early on, and i think the take on the theme is pretty generic (just do thing over again), but everything else was peak. Top game for me.
Thank you! Happy that you enjoyed it, sorry we couldn't get to much balancing before the end.
The poor fish had no chance against psycho with underwater machine gun and ~200 dynamite sticks...
Dynamite!!!
I really enjoyed my runs! This is a very nice entry with a lot of work on it. As the creative guy of my team I have to congratulate your artist, I really liked the graphical atmosphere. Well done !
Only did one dive, since it was too laggy for me :c but the art and the music are so nice. Good job :D
I really liked the progression system, i think some of the upgrades are WAY more fun than other, really fun roguelikes
Very nice game with a good game feel, the music is absolutely gorgeous, well done !
I'd love to see more interactions with the environnement in a full version of the game
Neat little game with amazing art, SFX and music! I enjoyed the underwater exploration and harpooning the fish. However, I wasn't able to use my money to buy any upgrades even though I had enough. Not sure if that's a glitch or I was doing something wrong. You all did a great job overall!
Thanks for playing! For purchases make sure to click the price tag, it's a bit unintuitive heh.
eyyy another fish game!!! FISH!! i love fish! very fun game, beautiful art!
Fish!!!
Cool arts and mood ! I was hopping to have deeper mechanics underwater or more creative upgrades but overall it's fun
amazing art and vibes! love the game concept too, with the diving and the harpooning fishies. i wish the character was slightly faster, but that might just be me!
This is a cool concept! I love the underwater vibe with the light and the music. Nice job!
Thank you, lighting was a cool mechanic to implement!
