Reviews for "Feed the Mermaids"
Haha nice
This was a different kind of game here I love a lot of things about this game but most of all some nice creativity along with your own passion and ideas bring it all together some decent visuals on this too making it even more fun i do wish more game makers put more elements like you have, the fish element of the game made it fun dont think I survived the five minutes though lol

This is legit a hard badge(s). Not sure how I'll get the 6 minute one. 4:40 is my current longest, and that took a lot of effort (Note: It only logs your score if you click retry. If you refresh the browser window your score doesn't save). I think the graphics being line art black and white is smart. You can focus on the game play and mechanics and story a little more. It's simple game play, catch fish, feed mermaids so they don't eat you, and it's fun for what it is.
Comments:
1) It feels like Hand #1 is a little more grabby than the others. I can give hand #2 or #3 a large fish and watch their progression stop and even reverse, but hand #1 only stop briefly, and it only seems to retract after giving it large fish after large fish.
2) This game definitely feels aimed at 5 minutes max with taking at least 1.5 seconds to catch ANY fish that's floating on the top, and around that point in time hands coming out of the water take about 2 seconds to pull you down once a hand is completely out of the water. It also seems that the amount of time they stop upon being given a fish scales on how close they are to the top of the boat, so the further up you let them get, the less effective ANY fish are. I'm curious to see if anyone gets the 6 minute badge. :)
3) The game is short enough and difficult enough that it encourages multiple plays, I've played for about 2 hours so far. Those cute little mermaid faces aren't so bad... until you start to see those teeth.
4) The game doesn't stay locked in the browser window, so you do pretty much need to play full screen to keep the game from sliding all over the place.
Messaged you my thoughts on expansion ideas.
I wish that you automatically went into endless mode once you pass five minutes. It was a little disappointing having my progress reset.
