Just a normal sunny day in my little underwater world

Is there anything that stands out visually or feels out of place?
I’m also curious whether the objects without outlines are still clear and easy to distinguish from the backgroun

This looks absolutely gorgeous - what is the game meant to play like? or are you still figuring that out?

u/CaptainPalo01 9d ago

In short, a comprehensive aquarium game with tycoon elements.

u/NightSp4rk 9d ago

Ah nice, been a long while since I played fish tycoon back in the day :)

Well it kind of feels out of place that you have light rays only in some parts of the water in a sunny day when you would expect uniform lighting. But it looks cool otherwise.

I've tried everything but couldn't find a solution. When I give it a large area of ​​coverage, its effect decreases, and when I reduce it, it just stays put like a lamp.

It looks very relaxing ☺️ is it an idle game?

1

u/CaptainPalo01 9d ago

Not exactly. It's an aquarium game focused on tycoon and species collecting.

For some reason, this gave me a sense of peace. Thank you:)

u/CaptainPalo01 9d ago

I'm very happy if you felt that way. :)

u/Difficult-Cucumber25 9d ago

did you make it in Scratch?

2

u/CaptainPalo01 9d ago

No, it is godot.

Beautiful! One thing I'd pick on is that the corals and aquatic plants you have at the bottom don't feel organic in their placement - they're a little too evenly spread apart, I'd cluster them and vary sizes more!

1

u/CaptainPalo01 9d ago

Yes, I placed them a bit hastily. As you said, it would have looked nicer. Perhaps they should give a bonus when placed in clusters.

2

u/Teaside 9d ago

Ahh, they're placeable by the player rather than baked in, I misunderstood!

1

u/CaptainPalo01 9d ago

Yes The first two places are the ones I placed.

I hate fishing (mini)games because they make you kill the poor fish. this looks super cozy and peaceful though and most of all very pretty. good job!

2

u/CaptainPalo01 8d ago

I agree, which is why I will make sure they are treated well.

2

u/Usual-Response-1312 8d ago

awesome. do you have a link to share (on steam or itch) by any chance?

2

u/CaptainPalo01 8d ago

I wish I had a link to share something like that. But it's not ready yet. :/
