Fun little game. Biggest issue is the fact that without a clear goal/storyline, the goal becomes "doing everything there is to do" and the achievements are the implicit endgame, which means they should be achievable by anyone, given enough time is spent, and the more skillful/adept players just get there quicker. This game runs into the issue of not being finishable for some, which wouldn't be too bad on its own, but it's a real bummer to get stuck on the last fish when you've spent a lot of time catching the ones before it without any trouble. I think the difficulty curve is otherwise well done with the whole day to night cycle and whatnot, although it could be made clearer that there even is a difficulty curve in the first place, because there's definitely more to this game than it first lets on and I was tempted to just stop playing after the first couple of fish. For a rythm game I enjoy the unique take that is using multiple different button layouts for the little games, it gives the otherwise very simplistic game a bit of surprise and variation, it would be cool to see something similar for the entire keyboard with randomized keys for each fishing-"duel". Fishing games always get +0.5 star. Overall a fun little time-waster and something that's definitely worth expanding upon!

well... not my kind of game, but it works well.
fishing is a good justification for a rythm game.
but still can't catch the girl, so cannot help me to forget my every day life ;)
Lack of variety.
got the golden fish, nice. sorry for your loss.
Tricky game. I ended up with a catch card not dissapearing so the game became practically unplayable, but it was okay before that.
Pretty nice & relaxing. Dunno if it's intentional but it feels some of the rhythms are kinda outta sync with the base track. Got all fish S rank except for White Marlin which I've only managed to A rank - I can't really do more than spam the down button there...
