Reviews for "Boom Boom Fishing"

This game is fun to play, but there are some things that might ruin the gameplay.

>>How about a 2 seconds invincible mode (after your ship got hit by a "spike barrel")?
In some cases you lose all of your hearts pretty fast, because you are surrounded
by those barrels and can't move. Such mode adds a tiny bit more fairness.

>>How about a bit more space for the ship, to avoid the attacks?
I had several moments in the game, where you simply can't avoid the attacks.
Maybe you should also reconfigurate the way the octopus attacks.
Every new game seems to be totally different. Sometimes it's unfair and sometimes "pretty easy".

>>The slot machine
I played this game + - 15 hours ago (before you altered the slot game)
and 10 gems each "bet" was enough to play it forever. But 100 gems is too much imo.
When the slot machine took 10 gems each bet, I had at least "double hearts" and/or "double bombs"
(I never managed to get "double score" though). Now, I get nothing, except somtimes 3 gems in a row.
You should change the random principle.

>>Suggestions short:
- maybe 2 seconds invincible mode after ship got hit
- bigger level = more space to move/avoid attacks
- alter octopus' attacks
- maybe 30 gems for each bet
- alter slot machine's random principle

I'd really like to add this game to my favs. Like I said; this game is fun.
Cheers!

Hey Catroonica,

Thanks for your feedback, I'm tweaking the game as I receive feedback so I'll be adding in your changes. I think most of what you have said has been said by a mate as well so it's good to have it confirmed.

I'm glad your enjoying the game, I'll do my best to get it configured right :-)

How does 50c a spin sound? I'll try and make the payouts a bit more often as well?

EDIT
Now you have three seconds to get into a safe zone when hit by barrels :-)
The release of barrels has been tweaked
I couldn't increase the size of the level, but I did shrink the boat so you have more space
Bets are now 30c
I've made the spin pay out more, but it really is random so you may not see an obvious change :-)

Great game. I would like to see some sort of upgrade system for the bombs. Also, the casino could use a little work. I played it for a very long time and can only manage to get more gems... Other wise, this game did exactly what I wanted it to do. It passed some time.

The gameplay is quite nice, but the slot machine makes no sense... You can get infinite ressources by just hitting "bet" again and again, as winning is way too likely. Maybe betting should cost more...

Thanks for the feedback, the slot game has just been tweaked somewhat.

Lots of action, you need to look at what's coming up as well as what's coming along. Sometimes a miss can turn into a lucky hit lower down. The slots game is a bit mean on payouts, but the pay outs make a big difference when they do come along. Great sound effects
