How to Play:

On the way down your hook will collect everything it touches. Once the hook is full, you start going back up! On the way up, anything you touch will knock something off! Whatever makes it with you to the top will be sold. Use the money to buy upgrades in the shop and go Reel Deep! You win the game by retrieving the treasure chest at the bottom of the sea.


Controls:

  • Mouse to navigate menus
  • Arrows | WASD to move
  • Space to use repellent (must purchase first)
  • R to abandon a run


Hints:

  • The deeper you go, the harder it is to come back up with your loot! Buy some upgrades before going too deep
  • Fish only start chasing you if you're in front of them
  • Your progress is saved! Come back later if you need a break
  • The clownfish are from Dark Souls

Update 1.2:

  • Added an options menu for volume, fullscreen, and reset
  • "Getting Schooled" medal now requires seven fish instead of ten. To all the players who managed to get the medal before: you get extra bragging rights
  • Selling fish, rocks, and treasure is now much faster
  • You can now abandon a run by pressing R

fun short game

This is game is realy good. The only problems? It becomes pretty boring after some time and it's too short. But I think this game could get really good in the future, maybe with some sequels

This was pretty fun great visuals and graphics nice music and some fun fishing lol. the game is tricky especially trying to get that one rock lol, I liked the effort you put forward on this game it shines with the little details

~X~

very relaxing game) 16/10)

Great game. The music's really thrilling too, especially when you're trying to return to the surface with your loot.

Only thing is, and it looks like some others had this problem too, the game doesn't keep your save. Since the hint says your progress saves, I was thinking to refresh the page after playing it a while, but when I did so, back to square one. So I guess the entire everything must be done in one sitting, and hope the medals connection holds.

(The reason I refreshed the page after a while is lots of games have a nasty habit of losing the Newgrounds medals connection after a while, so it's sometimes necessary if you don't want to be cheated out of medals earned, and when the game says it saves, seems like a good idea to refresh after a while, but bad idea in this case, as it did not save).
